Agility Training for Dogs : Use Jump Training for Dog Agility Training

@wirbleworldkristy

put more bars under the top bar

I find this diffucult to teach my dog because she will either run under, or around them.

I teach my dog jumps with my leg and a treat xD

hmmmmm……i wonder what the jump height is for a jack russel

how high could a small jrt jump?

@wirbleworldkristy
Start With A Lead
That Should Work

@nicoreal89 does your dog have a favourite toy/treat is so try that (coaxing over the bars). Also another thing i use with my dog because she does the same thing sometimes , i jump over the bars as well , it sounds stupid but it works very well.

my shorkie clears 22 inches she is tiny! dose anyone know what height she would jump in competition? i want to enter her she jumps, tunnels and is leaning the a frame and see-saw quickly! i am training her myself after working at a kennel for 3 years but i never worked with agility i just watched alot! and i think she is almost ready!

try making the jumps Very short, like 4 in. off the ground first, then gradually make it higher. it took me 2 mo to train my dog from 1 1/2 ft. to 2 ft
and dont rush it cuz then ur dog wont like Jumping!
i hope it helped
if u need anymore help, just ask!

my dog crawls under the bars and when i block the gap under it goes around the jump we dont have a agility or any dog sport here but a border collie needs exersice

that dog is so well trained!! my dog is really good at jumping (he can go really high) but he has to follow a treat over he doesn’t go on command. I’m gonna try to teach him though.

i trained my goldendoodle Holly to do agility, she has SOOOO much potential, and jumps way higher than the height requirments for her age and size. I have a video on my channel, check it out and let me know what you think.

that dog gots A LOT of energy..

that is sooooooo funny my dog does the same thing i wish she would go over i mean how many things do we jump over in a day

Look into local trainers, or research it more and learn how.

I would start teaching that he HAS to jump. Do small jumps at first so that your dog cant go under and use lots of praise and reward.

I would think that the best option would be to enroll him in an agility class.

my dog has alot of potential but he gets bored to easley and goes under the bars instead of jumping

Well, I train dogs, and thats exactly how I do it. Start with bars on the ground to get the idea. Even bars on the grounds to introduce the puppies work.

I really need help i want my dog to be in agility becuase he really likes to run he loves to pull me on my skates and skateboard ANYWAY HE IS NOT A PUPPY AND IV GOTTEN HIM TO JUMP OVER POLES BUT NOT TO HIGH AND I NEED TO NO WHAT U THINK HOW CAN I GET HIM TO DO AGILITY AND HE DOESENT PLAY WITH TOYS SO I USE TREATS

EXPLANE MORE

you cant just give them treats or they can get obesity.
praise is much better.
my mum is a vet.

Great vids but they really need to add more training step by step and less talking.

OMG I totally agree with you!

The clicker is a precursor to treats or toys. You click then give a treat or toy. So it should work because the moment you click you give them a treat or toy. The click in itself is not the reward it is just letting the dog know it did what you wanted right and you are going to reward them. You may not be using the clicker the right way or done enough training with the clicker before teaching tricks.
