Do you want your dog to walk next to you off leash? Training your dog to walk next to you in the heel position using food as a lure can cause the problem of the dog only staying in the heel position when the food is there, and when the food is gone the dog is gone. Emily goes over an exercise to work on to teach the dog the concept to stay in the heel position even when there is no food as a lure or no target. You can train your puppy this same exercise.
