Teaching your puppy to heel: My top three tips 

“You need to click, pause, then reward” 😅 can immediately think of all the times I pre-prepared the reward. I never even realized this was the issue with the focus on the hand.

I greatly appreciate all your awesome content that you're providing people for free here on youtube. I'm looking into training a service dog for myself and it's been so helpful to have all this research material available before I get a dog.

I have been training service dogs for years and this is GOLD! I would love all of our puppy raisers so understand this :)

I believe that persons who are wheelchair users may have to adapt, and not necessarily use a proper heal; I have used a regular, 6 foot leash, consistently it would get caught in gears and wheels to a very dangerous point. I sought advice, when, wheeling in a power chair, the controls over on the right hand side; the SDIT has to heal on the left. More importantly, using a 3 foot leash illuminates the problem of getting the lead caught in the wheels. If we come to a narrow space, as it is to the entry to my house, I allow the dog to fall behind me. She already has it experienced getting too close to the wheelchair and getting caught. There are ready made short leashes for this purpose. I have found this incredibly helpful and has given me peace of mind.

Iam going bind i got a puppy he is 8 weeks old where should start training I want him as my guide dog

can you differentiate based on leash type? Like long lead (40ft) vs. 6ft. normal leash?

I have a quick question, I’ve been trying to get my puppy (7 month old) to not pull on the leash, because I want to eventually teach her heel. But, she’s big and VERY strong, and for basically her whole life we’ve just let her pull. I’m having a hard time getting her attention and teaching her that when I stop I don’t want her to pull at all (the consistency where you don’t move when the leash is tight) another problem is my family also lets her pull all the time and I’m the only one training her. Do you have any advice or tips?

This really helps. My SDit has started pulling and discouraged me because he never has before. I’m on crutches, and I was trying to shorten the leash and think I created pulling simply by needing to move the leash with each step. I will make the leash longer to avoid me pulling him, hopefully that will help. Any tips? Thank you!!!

Can you explain why you don’t distribute same hand for treat as the side they are on? I found that people who use opposite hand, end up having issues with their dog jumping in front of them slightly.

He isn't too akinny. They do that when they go through a growth spurt.

Sometimes the best training is what you DON"T teach your dog.
