Professional dog trainer and longtime foster volunteer Andrea Arden takes us through her second “Impulse Control” training session with her foster puppy Dylan. Learning impulse control helps to keep dogs from doing things like jumping when greeting people, pulling their leash, rushing through doorways, and more. All you need is a tasty treat, your marker word, and you can teach your dog that the best way to get what they want is through patience! Start small with short repetitions, then work to advance the skill as your dog gets the hand of it.
