►►Stay Command:
Once your dog knows all the leashpressure cues, you can now start using it for your stays. Place your dog in a position of your choice. When your dog breaks that position, you will calmly say “wrong,” casually walk to your dog, grab the leash and use the leashpressure to place your dog back into the position that was just broken. Once your dog is back in the desired position you will praise and pet your dog (petting is optional), but don’t give your dog a treat or toy reward. The reason for this, is that some dogs will break the position on purpose, so they can get the reward when placed back into the stay position.

You must say “wrong”, or whatever word you choose, the moment (first second) your dog breaks the position, and you only say “wrong” once for each offense—even if it takes you a few minutes to get your dog back to the position that they just broke. You will continue to do this step until your dog either stops moving or goes back to the position they just broke on their own after you say “wrong.” This will prove to you that your dog knows what is expected, and that your dog knows how to turn off pressure by complying. Once your dog shows you this behavior, you can then (if you choose) use corrections (positive punishment) for reliability.

As a side note: when teaching a stay, we do not say "stay," the stay is implied when you put your dog into a commanded position. However, some people feel more comfortable saying the word “Stay”. If that’s the case with you, feel free to use the word as it won’t negatively impact the training.

When I place a dog into the stay command, I have three ways of releasing them from the stay.

• One: we can use our release word. For my dogs that word is "break".

• We can use our terminal marker which predicts release and reward. For my dogs that word is "free".

• Lastly, we can give the dog a new command, such as "come" or "heel”.

I’m often asked how I teach my dogs the release word “Break”. You can introduce the (release) word the same way you introduced the terminal marker. The only difference is that the release word doesn't always predict a reward like the terminal marker does. You can also say the release word and then follow it with verbal praise and excitement. I’ll also squat down when I praise to encourage the dog to come to me. This quickly teaches a dog the release word.

We can also use leash pressure to help teach our dog what behaviors are not acceptable, as explained earlier in the manual. For example: let’s say you don’t want your dog to be on your bed. When your dog jumps up on the bed, you can say “wrong” or “off” and then use the leash pressure to remove the dog from the bed. This is an easy way to teach your dog boundaries without having to implement positive punishment.
