Warm Up Technique - Coming Off a Bed

Jun 18, 2025

Warming up to perform can be difficult, especially at the larger, crowded shows.

For those situations, I teach my dog to wait on a portable bed, and to "Find Heel," by coming off the bed with intensity and enthusiasm, ready to work!

This video demonstrates: 

  • Teaching your dog to rest comfortably on a bed near the ring
  • Having your dog to come off the bed with focus & energy
  • Maintaining your dog's engagement using your Reward Marker

Teaching this skill can be a valuable warm-up technique to add to your training toolbox.
