It's a big step in your training to teach your dog to listen to you off-leash! Most people simply unclip the leash then act surprised when their dog decides that they aren't that interested in them anymore! In this video, Instructor Carol will talk about loading value when you start to teach your dog to listen without a leash on. She will talk about when it means for a dog to be "leash aware" and a few important steps that you'll need to take (pun intended) to make sure your dog listens even after that leash comes off!
