Get A Cue
Wednesday Mar 01, 2023
Wednesday Mar 01, 2023
This week, Scott and Jess discuss various cueing systems in dog training.

What is the easiest type of cue for most dogs to learn?
Why should you not get frustrated when your dog doesn’t respond to a straight verbal cue?
How can different types of cues and cueing systems provide different results?
