CONTINUATION OF IF SIT PRETTY
Ask your dog to sit, and as your dog reaches to take the treat in its mouth, slowly raise the treat over its head so that your dog will have to reach up to get it. Pull it up until the dog is sitting on its hind end with the front paws off the floor and held in front in the begging position. Once in the begging position and your dog is confident holding for a degree of time, ask for “paw” while they are in position.
This exercise will shift your dog’s centre of gravity therefore increasing core stability, improving posture and increasing balance.
