How to teach your dog Watch Me
Buys you the three seconds before a reaction starts.
The steps
- 1
Hold a treat at your own eye. Wait. Do not say the name.
- 2
The second your eyes meet, mark it and pay.
- 3
Add the word once the look is offered without prompting.
Why this helps
Eye contact is the cheapest interrupt you have, and the only one that works before the lunge.
