While dog owners spend a lot of puppyhood teaching verbal commands, like ‘sit’ when crossing the road or ‘leave’ when they won’t drop one of their favorite puppy toys, one dog trainer believes that many owners underestimate the power of teaching non-verbal cues.
This can especially come in handy when leash training and learning how to stop a dog pulling on a leash. Leash training plays a crucial role in the development of a well-behaved dog and in the realm of leash manners, non-verbal communication holds immense value.
