Erica & Tori

Indoor Pool Dog Training at What A Good Dog in Malvern, PA. Rottweiler “Tori” practicing her go to the box. This is a great example of targeting. Targeting is good to build confidence in dogs. This is another behavior that brought joy to Tori around water. Targeting is a good tool for water work since it is a leash free environment and in large bodies of water you can be up to 100ft from your canine when you are on shore. An indoor pool is a great place to practice target approximations. For example after weave poles you can train a “Send to box” behavior. Also, in Canine Water Sports all tasks start and end at the box so this behavior opens up many, many tasks for you to explore.

Erica & Molly

Indoor Pool Dog Training at What A Good Dog in Malvern, PA. Newfoundland “Molly” towing a boogie board. Dogs need to learn to pull against drag in the water. Towing is another great activity to practice in an indoor pool. There are many great Towing tasks to learn in Canine Water Sports. Towing is great for all skill sets from beginner to experienced.

Erica & Molly

Indoor Pool Dog Training at What A Good Dog in Malvern, PA. Newfoundland “Molly” learning Swim Weave Poles. Weaves Poles is one of the behaviors in the Canine Water Sports Aqua Agility Tasks. This is a great activity to teach an advanced swimmer to keep swim time “fresh”. Add behaviors before and after the weave poles to chain together a segment of tasks. Watch the video on “Send to the box”, this is a great obstacle to add after your weave poles.

Erica & Molly

Indoor Pool Dog Training at What A Good Dog in Malvern, PA. Newfoundland “Molly” retrieving two articles from a platform. This is a distance approximation for the multiple retrieves offered from Canine Water Sports. An Indoor pool is a good place to practice the task fundamentals before moving to the 60 -- 100ft task distances. It is also a great recreational exercise to take retrieves to another level.
