Small Dogs and Puppies Class - Thursday - 4/7/11

COME!
Use outdoor voice,
say it 1X,

Pumkin & Zia  - BFF
 your dog's name first, combined with the command               
hand out,
praise and release with OK.
  Make COME as positive as possible.
  Make COME a habit.
GOOD COME



When walking use your words first, then leash correct. If needed, a great training tool is;
an EZ WALK harness or
a GENTLE LEADER.
  When training, find a public spot, but a little away from the crowd. Treat before your dog sees a distraction, and keep on treating while the distraction passes.  Then praise for GOOD LOOK!

Pumkin and Zia have finished their first 5 lesson program, and I must say they have thrived under the direction of their respective owners. I will miss their lively spirits and playful manner.
