Peter - Teaching a "Drop It" to Prevent Resource Guarding (Toy Exchange Game)

In this session, Peter practices a toy exchange game that teaches him to happily let go of things on cue (a "drop it," "give," or "out") instead of learning that letting go always means something's being taken away — one of the best ways to head off resource guarding before it starts. By trading back and forth between two toys and rewarding him for checking in and releasing, we build the idea that giving something up leads to more fun, not a fight over it. We also mix in some recall practice, calling him away from play and rewarding him generously for coming back, so he learns how to get excited during a game and still come back down afterward. 🐾 Positive, force-free training based in Fitchburg, MA — proudly serving Leominster (our core area) and surrounding towns.
