Where to start with your basic training? Simple luring with food: work on your sits, downs, and kennel up commands. It doesn’t need to be an all day event. 10-15 minutes of little obedience drills like this broken up throughout the day (4-5x) and a couple of walks will get you a leash trained dog in a week or so. Everybody is overcomplicating things. Nothing we do here is “magic”. It’s just consistency with the dogs. If we can do it, you can too! | Solid K9 Training
