YNP #081: My Rules for Your Dog’s Walk
Your New Puppy: Dog Training and Dog Behavior Lessons to Help You Turn Your New Puppy into a Well-Behaved DogShow Notes
When we thing of what our dog’s walk “should” look like we think of them walking by our side without being distracted by anything and only sniffing when we say it’s ok.
I’m here to let you off the hook. As long as your dog is 6 feet from you, you and your dog are enjoying the walk, and everyone around you is safe, then I don’t care what your walk looks like.
In this episode I talk about:
What my rules for what your dog’s walk should look like.
What my rules aren’t.
Why every dog should know “heel”.
Why I encourage your walk to NOT be perfect.
When your dog should have strict rules.
Press play and enjoy!
