This exercise does not look to encourage your dog to jump, rather a proper and natural stride length.
- Set cavaletti poles at an equal appropriate distance from one another. Height and amount of poles will have been advised by your therapist.
- Use a treat or toy to lure your dog at a controlled trot over the poles, keeping treat low so that your dog can see the poles.
- Each paw should be placed appropriately between the Cavaletti poles and your dog should not skip or jump over the poles.
- This exercise can be performed on or off lead.
