must learn their own parts. The benefits of teaching your dog to heel are:

Better
focus on walks

your dog how to walk beside you on a loose leash

When a dog has been taught to heel, you can take them more
places so let us help you enjoy walking with your dog.

Choke Chains, Prong (pinch) collars, or electronic collars please.
