Teaching a dog to be aware of themselves helps with “space” issues and also benefits the dog physically. Have you ever seen a dog chase their tail? That is because they are not aware they have one! Look at Kirby aware of where is paws are and how to manipulate his body safely. Awesome work for a 13 week old puppy. | Training Canines LLC | Facebook

Here are 3 helpful cues when trying this move:⁣ ⁣ ⁣ 1. Keep pelvis facing floor.⁣ 2. Lift chest and go to fingertips.⁣ 3. Energetically hug inner thighs together. | Mandy Froehlich | Facebook
