How do you teach your dog to heel?

Question by Kicks like a girl: How do you teach your dog to heel?
My dog (german shepherd) has never really had a problem with leash walking- and he rarely pulls. His only problem is winding around my legs, switching off from left to right, and stopping to play with/smell something on the ground. How should i teach him to heel?

Best answer:

Answer by bangnoai
Same as everything with dogs: reward. I trust your dog has reached adulthood. If so, reward him/her when he/she complies to your order to heel with some appropriate bit of food you keep somewhere in your pockets (it’s got to be dry food). When the dog gets to understand what it is you expect from him/her, you can progressively swap to fondling his/head.

What do you think? Answer below!

Our dog does not fetch. Fetch Lesson: still unsuccessful, but a valiant effort. icon wink Nice Teach Dog Fetch photos
1 – Cut slit in ball and insert treat so it smells like something dog wants to pick up.
2 – Show it to dog, let him smell it’s yumminess and repeat the word "ball" alot.
3 – Throw ball and watch as dog continues to sit at your feet waiting for a treat without having to move.
4 – Laugh as dog walks past ball, while trying hard not to even look at it.
5 – Dog: "…WHY is this game fun?"

OLD dog litter training, can i teach an old dog new tricks? o-0?

Question by eatyourself666: OLD dog litter training, can i teach an old dog new tricks? o-0?
got a very old dog in an apt housing, he’s been at a house all his life and is used to going through a doggy door, im wanting to train him to use a litter box, any tips for helping this to happen? i have a cat too, should i give them seperate boxes? is it possible to train a dog that has to “walk it out” to use a confined area like that to go? can he learn to do it while being still? he’s old and i love him but im tired of the smell, if i can teach him i’d like to try, cant stand walking him with my busy schedule and even when i do he messes anyway because he cant even last my work hours without going… more description he’s um about 14 yrs old in human years, nearly blind, nearly deaf, not quite completely either, he’s a mutt, midsized, maybe 13 pds, pointers would be great, or any contact nfo2 people that work with pets would be awsome, thanks

p.s. i’ve read a bit of pet pads, any of them work good? odor attraction type pads i mean, im interested but skeptical, any success stories?
