Figure 1.
Bodywork: Application of the wrap. This wrap is applied in a figure of eight (half wrap) and is useful for calming excitable or fearful dogs. The inherent stretch in the fabric provides a light sensation of pressure against the body and draws the dog’s attention to its body during movement. Reprinted with permission from Lib Roe and the Blind Foundation’s Guide Dog Services.
Figure 2.
Bodywork: The ‘Zig-Zag’. This touch is applied in a sliding zig-zag pattern along the body. Depending on the speed of application, this touch can calm or stimulate an animal. Note: the alert tail carriage suggests that this dog is engaged with the activity. Reprinted with permission from Lib Roe and the Blind Foundation’s Guide Dog Services.
Figure 3.
Groundwork: Focussing on the task. Using two points of contact (flat collar and TTouch Step-in-harness) as a leading exercise enables the dog to experience moving differently; this can influence self-carriage, focus, and balance. The wand influences movement and position, and helps to increase awareness to different parts of the body. Due to the context in which training occurs, dogs undergoing groundwork exercises are able to differentiate between these exercises and avoiding obstacles when guiding. Reprinted with permission from Lib Roe and the Blind Foundation’s Guide Dog Services.
Figure 4.
Groundwork: The TTouch balance leash technique. This technique teaches a dog to walk in balance on all four feet without pulling. The dog’s body (and brain) receives information via subtle “ask and release” signals with the leash on the chest. Integrating the balance leash technique as an adjunct to guide dog training improves positioning, focus, and confidence. Reprinted with permission from Lib Roe and Canadian Guide Dogs for the Blind.
Figure 5.
Negotiating a traditional guide dog training obstacle course in balance after TTouch training. Note the way the dog bends its body to negotiate the obstacle making the dog easy to follow when guiding. Reprinted with permission from Lib Roe and the Blind Foundation’s Guide Dog Services.
