DOG TRAINING - "Stay"


Introduction

There are times when you need your dog to stay in place (i.e., when you’re retrieving an object from a different room than where your dog is located at that moment). The dog training command, “Stay” is useful for those situations when you want your dog to remain in the same position without being tempted to follow you around.

In this 10-minute video, dog trainer Zak George trains a dog to stay in place using the dog training command, “Stay”. He shares the following tips with dog owners:

*There are 3 elements to Zak’s dog training method:

1. Duration

2. Distance

3. Distraction     

1.  Start with the command, “Stay” using a short duration of time. Use your hand as a cue for your dog to stay in place. If your dog stays in place, reward your dog with a treat.

2. While using the command, “Stay”, increase the distance between you and your dog by moving away from your dog. If your dog stays in place, reward your dog with a treat.

3. The final step is to use the dog training command, “Stay” in various distractions around your dog. In this video, Zak uses a squeaky toy to distract his dog while teaching him to respond to the command, “Stay”.
