Training Strategies:
High-intensity exercise first: Ensure ample vigorous exercise (running, fetching) before training sessions to help the dog focus.
Keep training fun and short: Use game-based drills, vary the exercises, and keep sessions brief (5-15 minutes) to maintain engagement.
Positive reinforcement is the key: Use high-value treats, praise, and play as rewards for correct behavior.
