What you’ll learn
- Focus (eye‑contact) without prompts: start in low distraction; mark “yes!” the instant they glance up; then generalise: garden → drive → quiet lay‑by → park. (Eye‑contact is mutually exclusive with pulling.)
- On the Move — “Drunk Dog Walking”: hands at tummy button; step back, reward as they follow, change direction often, only 1–3 steps between rewards; goal = your dog shadows you.
- Position (heelwork): semi‑circle lure to tuck beside your leg, then reward placement next to your leg so that spot becomes the best place in the world. Mix 1–3 steps between rewards.
- When your dog pulls: stand still, wait for a check‑in, semi‑circle back to heel, continue. (Stop self‑rewards like towing to sniffs/hellos until you’ve had a few nice steps.)
- Top tips: control self‑rewards, pick harness + double‑ended lead, and mix in boring sniffy walks so “lead on” isn’t always a cue for high arousal.
What you get
- An 8–9 page, illustrated guide with step‑by‑step games, a pulling protocol, and kit tips, plus an upsell nudge to your Loose‑Lead Legends Masterclass.
