Dad's been training me off leash. While walking on the trail when there are hardly any people there, he lets me off and has me heel between he and mom, then if I behave, which of course I always do, it get to hear "Free Dog". That means I can run right in front of them and around in the trees trying to sniff out rabbits and other furry animals. Great fun. Plus I get so much praise for behaving so well...which of course means treats when I get home.
