To improve the head position so that he is holding the head straight up the reward is placed to the left and above his head. It's supposed to help Did you find that it did?

We are still working on it. It worked at the ME class with the dogs whose head position was very low, the difference was obvious by the end of the week. I should also straighten out and lift the head up so that he is looking at the side of my face.

Forrest's puppy (in the video I posted earlier in this thread) also moves like that. I would definitely like more animation. It'll probably get better when we switch to toy rewards. Working on that right now.

Some look at it as bordering on a lack of control. Your dog's heeling is sweet right now! old dogs LOVE to learn new tricks
