Commands

  • Stay / heel commands will help to absorb a dog's drive and give it more opportunities to learn coming to heel, and impulse control.
  • Back command, meaning to take steps backwards, will help the dog to come into position behind the handler, where there is less risk of tripping.
  • Calling the dog's name to prompt eye contact will direct the dog's attention away from the environment.
