Teaching the Tire Jump to Your Agility Dog

Teaching your agility dog the tire jump obstacle can be challenging because the dog doesn’t see it as a jump and doesn’t understand what you want him or her to do when they get to it. First, use treats as a motivator to get them through the tire. Starting your dog at low heights and then increasing them as they learn to jump through the tire can help you avoid the problem of a dog walking under the obstacle to get the treat.

With larger dogs, you have to start them at regular height because of their size so this training video will give you a tip on how to make sure your dog goes through the tire rather than around it.
