and treats. Soon, the owner only rewards if the dog will follow the lure into
the tunnel 5 inches. Next, the owner only rewards if the dog steps one paw

reaches halfway, and then all the way through the tunnel. – ANS Prompting

A trainer wants to teach a dog to spin in a 360-degree circle on cue. She
lures the dog into a partial spin (about one eighth of a turn) then marks and
rewards the dog with a treat. After several successful repetitions of this,
she only rewards the dog after following the lure for a quarter turn (90
degrees). After several successful repetitions of this, she only rewards the
dog after following the lure for a half turn (180 degrees). She continues with
this pattern until the dog is only getting rewarded for a full 360-degree turn.
