Intro to Treibball: Pushing Course Instructor Michael McManus Now that your dog understands the key skill of Treibball, balancing, it is officially time to get them moving the ball in more and more complicated ways. So let's get PUSHING!

Your dog understands the key foundational skill of balancing...now it is time to get them to PUSH!

In Treibball 103, we start adding the skill of pushing the ball to the dog. The key here is impulse control - we are not looking for the dogs to bite and pop the ball!

Using Michael's training techniques, your dog will love the game, the added layers of complexity and overall FUN of this entire activity! Better still, you will see your training prowess improve by leaps and bounds.

Let's get ready to PUSH!
