Description
Teach your dog a reliable Down (Drop) on cue, even around distractions.
This essential training lesson shows you how to build a calm, settled “down” position that your dog can hold at home, in public, and in everyday life. A solid down is one of the most powerful foundation behaviours for calmness, control, and good manners.
You’ll learn a simple, step-by-step method to:
- Get your dog to understand the down position quickly and clearly
- Build duration so your dog stays settled, not just momentarily lying down
- Add calm focus so your dog can relax instead of bouncing or breaking position
- Use the down as a tool for real-world control (guests, meals, doors, distractions)
Perfect for puppies and adult dogs who need better impulse control and calmer behaviour in the home.
A reliable “down” isn’t just obedience, it’s the foundation of a calmer, more manageable dog.
