The Boomerang Maneuver is one of Simpawtico’s “signature moves” if you will. We use it, in some fashion or another, with tons of training scenarios that we use. From crate training, to fence fighting, to reactivity, to station training, sitting for petting—one way or the other the dynamic move+explode away strategy is molded to fit the context.
Getting a feel for it is a matter of timing and sensitivity. The leash handling skills we went over in Episode 4 for sure play heavily into this. We’ll continue that work by talking about Tension Control (which we have a PDF for) and the Boomerang maneuver itself.
Take a look at this quick crash course on the subject we did in Episode 5 of Coffee & Quarantine!
