You crushed every training task today. Your pup is so proud!
Training Checklist
Minute 0–3: Calm training
Sit down somewhere boring.
• Ignore her completely
• The second she settles even a little (lays down, sighs, pauses) → quietly say “yes” and give a treat
• No excitement, no talking
Goal: teach her that calm = reward
Minute 3–6: Leash pressure game
Inside the house.
• Put leash on
• Apply gentle pressure (not a yank, just steady)
• The moment she moves toward you → “yes” + treat
Goal: pressure means move back, not fight it
Minute 6–8: Micro walk practice
Inside or just outside your door.
• Take a few steps
• If leash tightens → stop immediately
• When she gives slack → move again
