It has worked outside on so many occasions when his body language told me he was thinking of running or bolting after a cat, squirrel or other do. Plus, he's trained not to leave the front yard - using the same methods and the command "stay in your yard" - and he's never left the perimeter I've set for him - even once when he was happily following some teenage boys who were walking past the house kidding around with each other and he started trotting happily along right behind them, hoping to join in the fun. I was in my robe/no makeup, sitting on the porch and really hated to call attention to myself by calling out "stop" to him but was just about to when he got to the driveway, turned and came running right to me. Boy, did we ever celebrate "good stay in your yard" when he got to me! I was so proud of him!
