Just Three "little" Things I Want




Whether it's my own dog or a dog I am training for someone else,
the bottom line adds up to three little things:

1. I want my dog to move with me.
2. I want my dog to come back to me.
3. I want my dog to stay put.

With those three little things, I can live happily with my canine friends.

So you maybe thinking.....How does one get "that" with their dog?

I have an acronym for "that": L.E.A.D.

L = Language
Setting up a marker system of words that tells your dog what they are doing is right or wrong.

E = Engagement
Being activly involved with your dog in the moment.

A = Action
The process of doing something in order to achieve a purpose.

D = Direction
 Instructions given by the person who controls the dog.


Great things result from this word L.E.A.D. : trust, reliability, cooperation, fun, stability. This all culminates into a fantastic relationship in which your dog will move with you, come back to you and stay put.
