Dog Training Tip: If your dog tells you he LOVES an activity, he is telling you YOU just found a reinforcer for him! Listen to your dog to learn about his reinforcers.
You can use the opportunity to DO that valued activity as a consequence to your dog doing a behavior you want to see.
German shepherd Shadow LOVES digging where his person has the shovel. So, digging is one of the consequences of his coming when called in their large back yard. Great for their recall training.
Fun for everyone!
