Basic Obedience Foundations (FREE Course) Teach Calm, Connected, Real‑World Skills the CRR Way
Basic Obedience Foundations is Camp Ruff Ruff’s complete, owner‑friendly guide to teaching the five core behaviors every dog needs: Sit, Down, Stay, Place, and Leave‑It.
This course goes far beyond “commands” — it teaches state of mind, impulse control, and clear communication using CRR’s proven marker‑based system.
You’ll learn how to teach each behavior using four training methods (shaping, capturing, luring, prompting), along with the exact cue‑timing rules, criteria rules, and reinforcement placement that make training faster, clearer, and frustration‑free.
What You’ll Learn
- How to use markers: YES, GOOD, and FREE
- When to add cues (only after 3–5 clean reps)
- How to raise or lower criteria to prevent frustration
- How to build calm, stable behaviors using impulse control
- How to use Sit, Down, Stay, Place, and Leave‑It in real‑world situations
- How obedience ties directly into loose leash walking and reactivity prevention
Why This Course Works
This is not a trick‑based obedience class.
It’s a behavior‑first system built on:
- emotional regulation
- predictable patterns
- clear communication
- humane, science‑based training
- reinforcement placement that builds stability
- real‑world application, not flashy drills
Whether you’re raising a puppy or tuning up an adult dog, this course gives you the foundation for calm, connected, reliable behavior — the CRR way.
