5 basic exercises to train focus

Short, easy exercises you can do at home that help your Border Collie concentrate even with distractions.

How we do it in the pack

We always start with short sessions in a calm place, with rewards the dog really wants. When it goes well, we raise the difficulty little by little: more distance, more time, more distractions. When it goes badly, we take a step back with no drama.

Always finish with an exercise your dog already knows. Ending on a success is half the work for the next session.
