Adding a release off the spot

1. Cue your dog to their spot (here, the dog’s bed) and into a Down.

2. When they lie down, click to mark their behavior as correct.

3. Reward with a treat.

4. Say the release word “Okay” and then toss a treat away from the bed to lure your dog off.

PRO TIP: Deliver the treats calmly to your dog to help reinforce the behavior. Click when your dog is relaxed on their bed. Start with short repetitions to build up your dog’s confidence.

EXERCISE 12

Polite Entrance

Teaching your dog to stop and sit at an entryway or crosswalk will keep you both on the same page. Bolting out the front door or lunging ahead at a crosswalk could lead to a life-threatening situation. Remember to keep your dog feeling successful. At first, use a high-value treat and reward every couple of seconds while your dog stays in the Sit position. As they become more fluent with the exercise, add more time between treats.

DURATION 10 repetitions per day for 4 weeks
