This is a great video to watch for TIMING of command, leash pressure, and marker cue ("good" or "nope" - if you don't know what a marker is, watch my "marker" video). The command is separated from leash pressure by a half second and the marker is exactly when the dog gets is in position:
I say the command and give her a second to respond appropriately BEFORE I use a little bit of prong/leash pressure. It is all about timing here.... Pay , attention to when I say "heel" then watch the leash stay slack for a second to give her a chance to AVOID it. If I don't use the leash at all because she quickly gets in position, you will hear me say a really happy "good", if you see you me use leash pressure I will say "good" (less emphatically or not at all) when she gets in position. I mark her getting in the proper position of heel. If at anytime on her own, she looks at me and my leg to check her position on her own, I say an emphatic "good".
At the end of this video, she looks at a dog, I say "nope" she immediately looks away and I mark with "good".
By the way, I use these marker words and leash pressure like this ALL of the time when training dogs. Once Sadie understands the "heel" using only voice, then the owner can layer the e-collar on to the command.
