| | Cues should always be clear and consistent. However, cues do allow for some flexibility and can be transferred.

Do you want the versatility that is possible when your dog knows a variety of cues? In all of these instances, knowing how to transfer a cue accurately is important.
Watch as Laura Monaco Torelli, KPA faculty member who will be leading our upcoming Dog Trainer Professional program in Phoenix, AZ, demonstrates.
