I have not seen the video, but I will get to work on it ASAP! Do you think "stay" would work better beforehand? That way she never actually gets out (hopefully anyway)?
I planned on teaching her "stay" this week, but I thought mastering "leave it" and "come" were important for dangerous things (like dropped pills or bad things on walks) and for if she ever got loose. Now I know that "come" doesn't work if she is outside though... |
I think in the video she explains that you should always release your dog from a stay, so I don't think you can say stay and then just leave for the day because I think it'll confuse him...Is there absolutely no way to add another gate close to the door??
