Walking with your dog: are you both tuned in?

Walking with your dog should be a pleasant experience for both of you. If it's not, you might need to work on some leash manners. In this video, we are helping Loki, the Boston Terrier puppy, get started on his leash manners.

This demo during Puppy Preschool Class is helping Loki to understand that we only proceed forward when we are tuned in with each other. When he tunes out and hits the end of the leash, we stop. When he tunes back in with us, we proceed forward.

It's especially challenging when we get close to the other puppies in class since Loki really wants to socialize! But you can see in the video that Loki does a great job checking back in after he gets distracted by others!  Click here to watch the video
