BEGINNER CLASS:
I’ll post 2 videos in the comments since Facebook is being stupid and won’t let me post them here.
RECALL: use a new formal command that you haven’t broken by not following thru.
Say “Milo HERE!” Back up and reel him in. Treat at nose height.

STAY: clear Stay command with hand in front of face. Hold leash up short like a grooming table.
Pivot to 1/4 moon. 3 seconds- gradually increasing time.
Return to Heel position.
Pause.
Praise quietly.
Release command “FREE!”
Advance to 1/2 moon, 3/4 moon, full moon.

Practice About turns (away) for correction when they’re tuning you out.
U Turns (toward the dog) to teach spacial respect.

Practice being neutral as you’re walking. OR give a correction- don’t accept a little bit of pressure all the time.

No jumping- stand on leash. Insist that calm people wait until your dog is sitting.
Encourage them to scratch the chest.
Drop treat on the floor.
80/20. Don’t let 100% of people pet. Get your dog used to waiting to see if they’re going to pet or not- instead of just assuming they are.

Work hard this week and I’ll see you all next week!

I would like to thank our US HONOR DOGS 🇺🇸 donors who give humbly and sacrifically.- not requesting any big show of gratitude.
Every Christmas we have a family of supporters who forego presents and make a donation.
Lately we received a donation in honor of a recent graduate team and last week another quiet donation came in.
The heroes who receive our Service Dogs have laid their lives on the line for us- our police, firefighters and veterans - and often they don’t receive the immense THANK YOU that they deserve. It does my heart good to be able to let them know that there are A LOT of us who deeply appreciate them and support them.
THANK YOU for joining us in our efforts to give back!

Yesterday:
this dog dashed out the door at every chance. And she was not fun to walk. So not getting walked made her dash out the door more.
Today:
she walks nicely on leash and doesn’t go out the door without permission.
