Dog Training

Lesson 2: Lesson Two: Building on Lesson One

Practice

Review the section on training equipment. Purchase the equipment you think you will need. It is perfectly acceptable to try different items to see what works best for you.

Decide on your release word and explain to everyone who handles the dog what that means. Practice your Lesson One exercises using your release word.

Practice Sit-Stays and Heeling off-leash. Practice walking on a leash if you have a puppy who is just learning about leashes.

Practice recalls randomly and often.

Play and have fun.

Discussion: What is the best thing about your dog? What would you most like to change?
