Teaching Your Dog to Drop Something with the Yuck Command

from Leerburg Dog Training Podcast · host Ed Frawley

In this episode, Ed Frawley shares why and how we teach our dog the Yuck/Leave it command. Yuck is a command we train to teach our dog to spit out something it has picked up. It is probably the second most valuable command to teach our dog. This is taught in combination with the "Leave it" command. Leave It is a command taught to ask the dog to leave something alone that we don't want them to pick up. This video clip came from our Basic Dog Obedience course. This self-study course has 8 hours of video plus very detailed written training content. This course will cover the basic philosophy of reward-based training for sit, down, the foundation of coming when called, yuck/leave it, and walking on a loose lead. Additionally, you'll receive advice on managing your dog in your home. This course is taught by Ed Frawley owns Leerburg and has been training people how to train dogs for over 55 years. | Links mentioned: Basic Dog Obedience: https://leerburg.com/302.htm | Intermediate Dog Obedience: https://leerburg.com/302b.php | The Power of Training Dogs with Markers: https://leerburg.com/marker-dvd.php | Training Dogs with Food Rewards: https://leerburg.com/food-dvd.php | Obedience Training Equipment: https://leerburg.com/view-category.php?categoryid=699
