the sound. With continued practice, you can start using
the smacking sound in everyday life when you want to
grab your dog’s attention!
Keep in mind, however, that the smacking sound may be
less effective at times when your dog is too worked up.
For example, if he has seen something outside that he
reacts strongly to, your sound may go unnoticed. One
remedy for this is the “Look at That” game found in the
Brain Training for Dogs online training course. In “Look at
That,” we will work specifically on teaching your dog to
pay attention to the smacking sound despite strong
distractions.
Einstein Says: Don’t like using the smacking sound?
No problem! You can replace the smacking sound with
any other sound you like, such as a whistle or a pop.
Just make sure the sound you choose is loud enough to
be heard in busier environments, and that it is a sound
you can make yourself.
