"Look at Me"
Three very valuable words when training a dog.
They come in very handy for a number of circumstances. Such as if you are walking a dog that tends to pull. It's hard to pull if said dog is turning around to look at you.
And if looking at you is rewarded with a treat, the dog even moves back toward you when it hears the command.
It's also an excellent tool to prevent a fearful or aggressive dog from becoming over-excited when encountering another animal while on a walk.
Think about all the ways that having your dog turn and look at you might help you to gain more control.
I snapped all of these pictures while Cisco and I were out for a walk the other day.
It is really nice having your dog focused on you when out for a stroll!
GOOD BOY Cisco!
