13.1 Which Dogs Should Learn this Exercise

Any dog that barks or jumps on visitors, darts out the door, or barks and rushes

around when people are leaving the house should learn to lie down calmly on

a rug during these situations. Some dogs do well when rewarded with food for

behaving calm. But the more challenging dogs need to learn to lie down calmly in

a stepwise fashion in the face of these high distractions. And even if they’ve gone

through the down-stay stage of training, they usually need to specifically work on

the same “place” and DOWN-STAY behavior with the highest distraction of visitors

at the door.

13.2 Overview

Your dog can “place” and down-stay on the rug with high-level distractions from

Chapter 12. Now it’s time to practice with actual visitors. You’ll get the quickest

results if you set up visits where neighbors, friends, or guests visit at least 2 times

a day, until Fido gets the idea. In fact, it’s best to have a bunch of visits in a short

time span of several days to a week, especially if you tend to have a lot of people

coming in and out of the house regularly, but you can also train just when you

have your regular visitors come to the door.

At this point all visits should be controlled so that Fido ONLY has a chance to

respond correctly when visitors come to the door. If 100% of visitor arrivals are

correct, he’ll soon have fantastic door behavior. If he gets opportunities when

you aren’t prepared and he doesn’t behave correctly, it will take a long time to

form a good habit. The more practice sessions you can get over a short time

span (the first few days) the more quickly a good habit can form.

If you’ve been consistent about picking the Treat&Train™ system up between

sessions and ending the training session before Fido loses interest, Fido should be

glued to his rug whenever the system comes out. If this is the case, then you can

now leave it out all the time.

• Only reward Fido when you send him to his rug and then always call him off

instead of letting him choose when to get off. He will quickly learn that treats

only come out when you cue him to “place.”

TREAT RATE back to every 3 seconds so Fido does not have much chance to

bark. Then systematically increase the interval between treats again with

that particular distraction. (Refer to Step 6a [Knocking on the Door] for more

information.)

• If Fido is still barking at distractions and it's not a trained bark, it's likely that

you've increased the intensity of the distractions too quickly. Start from the

beginning and slowly increase the level of the distractions.
