    Training “back” with duration

    Adding Duration to Backing Up

    Once your dog knows how to take a few steps backward, it’s time to build duration. That means teaching your dog to keep backing up for longer distances before they get a reward.

    This video shows an example of how to work on increasing the number of steps your dog takes in reverse. To do this, you’ll gradually delay your marker and reinforcement. Start by rewarding after just one or two steps, then slowly build up to three, four, or more. Be sure to mark while the dog is still moving. If you wait until they stop, they’ll think stopping is the behavior you want.

    Use straight, clear movement from your body and keep your hands still once the cue has been given. You’re looking for confident, steady steps without hesitation. If your dog stalls, gets stuck, or turns, go back a step in your training and reinforce sooner.

    Short, frequent sessions will help you keep progress smooth. This part of the training takes patience, but it’s worth it. Longer backing skills build precision, strength, and control.

    Watch the video and let us know how many steps your dog can do. Questions welcome in the comments.
