When summer sunshine means no puddles in sight, we make our own. ☔🐾 Our trainers use positive reinforcement to help future guide dogs feel confident walking through water. By gradually introducing the sensation, from a dry tray, to a splash, to a full puddle, each step is marked and rewarded to build trust and confidence. Even without rain, we can prepare them for whatever the weather brings.

The trainer uses positive reinforcement each time the Labrador cross golden retriever confidently steps onto the tray. Platforms are then positioned at either end, and the guide dog in training is encouraged to walk across the wet tray before receiving a reward at the far platform.] #GuideDogs #GuideDogsUk #DogTraining #Summer
