Teach Your Dog to Heel

Teaching a dog to heel keeps him safely by your side in heavy traffic, around extreme distractions (such as children at a playground or a squirrel dashing across the road), or just while out on an easy stroll.

Far too few dogs consistently come when their owners call them. Mikkel Becker shows you how to teach your dog this potentially lifesaving behavior.

Crate training is a must for any dog owner. It’s great for managing behavior problems, necessary for car and airline travel, and will likely be required at some point in your dog’s life, whether at a veterinarian, groomer or boarder.

The stay command is helpful in so many situations, from keeping your dog at your side while you wait for a crosswalk light to change to keeping him still while he is being groomed. Trainer Mikkel Becker shows you how to teach your dog to stay.

There are many temptations for dogs, from a chicken bone on the street to a baby bottle on the floor to the household cat. The leave it command can help your dog avoid danger or a potentially messy situation.
