January is Train Your Dog Month

Does your dog know SIT? In a high distraction environment? When you are sitting in a chair? From a distance? Without any body language cues from you?

Here is one of my favourite instructional videos for teaching a dog to SIT on cue. The instructor includes some important points about fading the lure and establishing a verbal cue. It’s a great review, even if your dog already knows how to SIT on cue.
