Remember you are teaching your dog a new language. Just because he got it right yesterday doesn’t necessarily mean he understands the new cue today. Just like us, your dog needs practice and repetition to truly learn a new concept.

Your dog knows that a smile on your face is a good thing and he will be more interested in staying with you. STAND TALL! Leaning over our dogs can be stressful to them. It’s a type of social pressure – like your boss leaning over your shoulder while you work.
