Mission 3, Day 1 - heel, straddle, tuck, scootch

We’re still working on spot, but here are a few other things Daisy does on a regular basis. The heel she currently has is pretty good in that she follows me, but I would like to tighten her up so that she’s closer to me. She does it better indoors, obviously, because there are less distractions. And full disclosure it is not as good outside and I need to practice that.

I use straddle mostly when we’re out walking in the woods or on a pier and I want to stop and look at something but not pay attention to her. I can feel her in between my legs so I know she’s not going anywhere since she’s in a down. I also have her straddle to put on and take off her leash sometimes.

We use tuck went out at dog friendly restaurants so she doesn’t get in the way or disrupt anyone. And the “scooch” is to help her get into position when she’s under my legs.
