A method based on
research
DoAsIDo was developed during a research project at the Department of Ethology in Eötvös Loránd University (Budapest). The researcher, Claudia Fugazza, aimed to study dogs' social learning abilities.
During the project, they developed a training method based on social learning to investigate dogs' cognition. The method was named "Do as I Do" and quickly proved to be a highly effective training method. Dogs using this method not only have better recall but also find it easier to learn more advanced exercises compared to, for example, clicker training (shaping).
Better focus and impulse control
The method uses a system and a routine that makes it predictable and easy for the dog to know when to watch your actions and when to copy the same action themselves.
This requires a lot of concentration and the ability to wait until they are told to mimic the behavior. Do As I Do is perfect for training the mind as well as fun behaviors and activities with you.
This course package will provide you with a solid introduction to everything you need to master the Do As I Do method.
