We are demonstrating with a 6 month old Labrador Retriever the proper use of the Delmar Smith Wonder Lead to teach the basic obedience commands of here, heel, and sit.  This dog is in day 3 of our basic obedience training and has been doing very well.  The goal with any training session is to keep the dog upbeat and focused and doing exactly what you’re telling him to do.  The DS Wonder Lead keeps the dog focused and allows for instant correction.  The instant correction is also instantly released once compliance is met.  This goes back to showing the dog how to turn pressure off with compliance to commands.  But, there is a fine line between proper pressure and excessive pressure.  If you are constantly exerting excessive pressure, you are more apt to end up with a dog that looks robotic in how it goes about a training session, hunt test, field trial, etc.  I would rather use just enough pressure to get the dog to comply with exactly what I am telling him to do.  This also maintains the “happy tail” which makes my day when a dog is happy about working.
