What are Obedience Games?

 

Obedience games are a set of structured games that we’ve designed to transform structured play into basic obedience behaviors. We don’t rely on treats or lures to achieve results, nor do we aim to alpha control your dog through fear or dominance. Instead, we tap into your dog’s natural instincts and drive.

During Obedience Games dog training, your dog will learn to look to you for guidance, not as a steppingstone to a reward, but as the actual reward itself. For example, it is not the tug toy that your dog wants but rather the act of playing tug with you. Your dog must be attentive and obedient for the play to continue and will come to genuinely enjoy taking cues from you. This approach leads to long-lasting, reliable behavior changes that strengthen the bond between you and your dog.

Each obedience game is geared to train a specific command at three increasingly more difficult levels; basic, working, and Jedi. Each level correlates to real world situations with increased distractions.
