Hi Zak. I would like to thank you for all your videos which are of great help. I am concerned about beagles. I have a 6 months puppy and she is continuously jumping on the furniture, stove etc. I would really like to see your video about these issues. Thanks again

Hey Andy! Yes, that is exactly what I mean. If your dog associates the treat with the end of the exercise, it’ll just take a little bit of consistency for you to teach him that that’s not necessarily the case! There’s a quick example of me working on this very thing with Bruno at 4:34 in this video :)

I liked this video as well. I'm not normally much of a lab guy, but that dog is a stunner! I do have a question for the community. Can somebody clarify what Zak means at about the 5:40 mark when he says "treat them 3 or 4 times before releasing them"? Does this mean walk back to the dog, give them a treat, and walk back away without repeating the stay command or releasing the dog? I think my dog associates the treat with "mission accomplished" so I will have a double challenge here.
