To perform this exercise:

To perform this exercise:
1. Place your dog in a "sit" and stand on his right side.
2. Grasp the leash at about half way and hold above the dog's head so there is a "slight pressure".
3. Take "one" step in front of your dog, so that you're facing him.
4. Say "Stay" while hold your palm outwards and up.
5. Return to original position. Say "Good Stay" and reward.

Note:
• If your dog doesn't stay, start over and keep practicing. Eventually your dog will learn.
• Once you can take one step, take another and so on. (You only need to hold the leash above your dog's head until he understands what you want him to do when you tell him to "Stay")
• Please always practice on a leash when outside.
