The "Heel" Command

Anytime I want Ricky to stay by my side, I say “Heel“.

I learned this from the animal planet channel either. The trainer says to his dog “heel” and tapping hand over his left leg at the same time, then the dog comes to the left side of the trainer. Amazing, isn’t it?

I first started the lesson with a leash around this neck, the type people use for dog training. At first, Ricky tended to run around and distracted. I have to be patient and gently to make him understand this command. Of course, to be successful with this heel command, I have to use an appropriate leash, like the one I see on dog training programs. Applying appropriate control and movement from my left hand. He gradually understand what I wanted from him.
