Of all of the dog training commands, this is probably the trickier one simply because your dog associates this position with submission. You will find this a little more tricky if you have a more stubborn breed of dog such as the Siberian Husky. Keep with it though. A dog that will lay down on command is super convenient in many ways – take for example when it is time to visit the vets and he needs to examine her or if you have to give her under the skin injections for a condition such as diabetes, or when you simply want to brush her coat on a daily basis. Mental stimulation for dogs is super important and mastering this command will certainly provide exercise for your dog’s brain! A few weeks of perseverance will see your dog getting down on command.

Once your dog has mastered the basic leave it command (approx a week of consistent training) it is time to take things to the next level. Take two treats. Make sure one is much tastier than the other. Perhaps a piece of cooked chicken and a dry biscuit. Put the less tasty treat on the floor in front of your dog. Wait for your dog to keep eye contact with you and say the command ‘leave it’.
