| As important as it is to teach your dog basic behaviors such as “sit” and “stay,” it’s equally as important to teach a release cue to let the dog know when he can release from his current position. Not only a useful training tool, a solid release cue can save your dog’s life. Use a release cue before going over a threshold, like through a doorway, out of a crate, or out of a vehicle. A release cue is also extremely useful for dog sports, as it builds a solid start line as well as clarity and confidence for duration behaviors. |

CTP of the Month: Pattie Fischer |
|
|
| “Bella was my first Lagotto. It truly felt like she was speaking Italian and I was speaking English; there was no communication happening between us. I started to do nose work with her. Body language is a very important part of being an effective nose work team. Once I started “listening” to Bella’s body language, our relationship changed dramatically. The change I saw in our relationship when I began to understand and respond to Bella’s body language was nothing short of amazing, and it was nothing I had ever experienced before. The trust, bond, and love that developed were incredible.” Learn more how understanding her dogs better through body language and activities like nose work has helped Pattie Fischer shape her approach to training. |
