The Exam



                   When you’re ready, start your timer (a stopwatch works

                   well) and complete three repetitions of “The Airplane

                   Game” exercise in a row. This means holding up a treat


                   with your arms outstretched, waiting for your dog to make

                   eye contact, then dropping the treat—and repeating this

                   two more times. As soon as you’re finished, stop the timer

                   and check the grade table on the following page to find

                   out how well your dog scored.




                   Here’s a video of Einstein and me completing the exam:

                   You may have noticed that I use a clicker instead of


                   saying “yes.” In the Brain Training for Dogs course I will

                   teach you all about clickers and how to use them to take

                   your training to the next level.





                    Einstein’s  Tip:  to  complete  the  challenge  faster,  use

                    small  treats  that  your  dog  eats  in  one  bite,  and  don’t

                    toss  the  treat  across  the  room,  just  let  it  fall  to  the

                    ground. This one’s a joint effort between dog and owner


                    to get the ‘A’ grade!
