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 "dont move", and a release cue, e.g. "ok", "done", "free", or your dogs 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. Youll run into trouble if you mix them all up too soon.
