KEEPING YOUR DOG OCCUPIED AT HOME DURING QUARANTINE

Dogtra Senior Consultant, Pete Fischer, was recently interviewed by Redfin on training tips on how to keep your dog occupied at home during quarantine. 

"Take this time to practice the heel command during walks with your dog. Most dogs like to pull ahead on the leash like a Sled Dog. In order to get a dog that walks at your side under control, try this tip: as the dog nears the end of the 6 ft. leash you change direction 180° and tug firmly and command heel while proceeding the opposite direction. This will teach your dog to walk at your side rather than pull ahead" – Pete Fischer, Senior Dogtra Consultant
