In this video, I’m teaching my dog to heel using Michael Ellis’ proven training methods, focusing on engagement, precision, and motivation. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced dog trainer, mastering the heel is essential for obedience, control, and a strong bond with your dog. Watch as I break down the step-by-step process, using marker training, luring, and clear communication to achieve a focused, reliable heel.
If you want to improve your dog’s obedience and leash manners, this video will give you practical insights to level up your training. Like, comment, and subscribe for more dog training tips!
I have had Mavis for 2.5 months now, and it turns out we really like heeling together. I have always trained my dogs to heel, but I have never trained them to truly focus heel, and certainly I haven't done contact heeling so we are working out the process together, with the help of Michael Ellis and Leerburg.
I think it is important to give props to other trainers as I am beyond grateful to have anyone help me raise my game as a dog trainer, and hopefully others can find beneficial too, and if I can add anything to help that's a bonus.
We will be continuing this work so stay tuned for more.
Thanks for watching
