Training a dog to heel
The heel command teaches the dog to walk beside you and not in front or behind you. With the heel command, your dog
will look obedient and well mannered. You can use the heel command to protect your dog while you are taking a stroll in
the park. Every dog can master the heel command within a short timeframe.
Before training your dog, you must put her on a short leash. You can prepare a few treats as a reward for the dog when she
performs well.
You must decide which side you want the dog to walk on, your left is the most common side. To entice the dog to walk
beside you, you can hold a treat in the hand on the side where you want the dog to walk and say “Heel”. The dog will move
to your side because she is tempted by the food. If the dog responds to your command, you should praise the dog and
give him the treat.
