I love the philosophy behind the KMODT. It’s about giving the dog choice. They can choose to obey or get a correction when they choose not to. As a handler, consistently helping the dog make the correct choice is critical. I’m posting this video because my little dog, Ellie, was choosing not to maintain heel position. Even with corrections she tended to lag and sometimes wander off. Then Roxanne suggested I use a heeling rig that would bring her into better heel position. Here’s a video of the rig I used to help Ellie understand what heel position is. We’ve been at this for about a month and though Ellie is not perfect she has greatly improved.
If using a string, loop it through the tab on her collar.
Loop (don’t tie) the leash or string around your leg.
