Today, in our dog-friendly training tip for enlightened dog lovers - Chief Cheery Officer (CCO) Kiyo demonstrates his staying power!

| "Stay and relax!", invites Kiyo. |
A "stay" is a 2-part behaviour: "stay" means "don't move", and a release cue, e.g. "ok", "done", "free", or your dog's name, which means, "yes, you can move now".
There are also 3 components to a good "stay": time, distance, distractions. Start in small steps with time, then work on distance, and finally distractions. You'll run into trouble if you mix them all up too soon.
In this video, Kiyo shows another trick of his trade!
