heal help

[krisykris]

I'm clicker training and the book I have doesn't have a section on healing. Any pointers? Also is healing one of the "cornerstones" of good leash behavior? Thanks!!

I think you mean Heel ;)

But not sure about that because I do not clicker train.

Yes! Heel is very very important to good leash behaviour. If a dog is keeping pace to your side, he doesnt pull :D It also teaches him to ignore distractions, etc. Its a great thing for a dog to know.

I actually have an article for heeling :)

Hope that can help! Not exactly clicker training, but you can adopt it to clicker. Nothing negative is required to teach a dog heeling :D

Sam wrote me a rocking post on heeling in the Rally O thread in the agility/sports section.
