My rescue dog, a Labrador/Beagle mix, is gentle but very anxious. My vet recommended agility training to help him build confidence, so I started looking for basic training equipment. The Ronzeil cone trainer caught my eye because it was affordable and had great reviews, and I'm so glad I chose it. The cone trainers are the perfect size: not too high to scare my dog, but high enough for him to focus on running through them. They're also lightweight, which is great because I take them out in the backyard and sometimes to the nearby dog park. At first, my dog froze when he saw the cone trainer—he'd never done anything like that before. But I slowly acclimated him by placing treats at the end of each cone trainer, and within a week, he was running through the cone trainer. Now, within a month, he's running in zigzag patterns and even wagging his tail. His anxiety has also decreased—he's more curious about new things and less timid around other dogs. I also appreciate that the set includes six cones, enough to create different patterns, so we never get bored. I've tried adding a toy at the end instead of a treat, and he loves it too. This is more than just a training tool—it helps my dog come out of his shell. If you have a shy or anxious dog, this toy set is a great way to build his confidence while having fun.
