Alright, let’s have some fun.
This is a cute, simple game that's fun and helps increase your dog’s eye contact with you!
Prerequisite:
Your dog should have a solid Place / Climb / Platform (whatever you call it) where they can stay put.
How the game works:
1️⃣ Put your dog on place.
2️⃣ Have their food ready (meal or training food).
3️⃣ Start a few steps away and look at your dog.
4️⃣ When your dog makes eye contact, take a step toward them.
5️⃣ The moment they break eye contact — you stop moving.
6️⃣ When they re-engage and look back at you, move closer again.
7️⃣ Repeat until you’re right next to them and they’re giving you great eye contact.
8️⃣ Mark with “YES” and reward — either the full meal or a variable amount of food.
Reset, try again, and repeat.
Reward them for staying on place and choosing to look at you.
This should feel fun, calm, and engaging — not rushed.
I can’t wait to see everyone’s videos 👀🐶
