Teaching with food treats
“heeling” Like the other tricks is finding a good reward like food and using it as an attraction. Hold your dog's leash in your hand, while, start with your dog in your other hand and tell the dog to “Sit!” While holding a food dish in your hand, bring it to your dog's nose and say, “(example, Spot!), HEEL!” in a bright voice. Next, walk about ten paces, keeping the food at your side. When you stop (not too fast!), lift the treat and pull up on the lead so that your dog sits. Now you can reward the dog.
