Standing in a square stand, in good form, on foot targets with light baited head movements left and right…doesn’t look like much, but this is a hugely effective and deceptively difficult conditioning exercise, which has a wide range of benefits!
Conditioning exercises don’t have to be complicated, or look fancy, to be very effective and often very challenging for a dog’s musculoskeletal and proprioceptive systems.
