Sharing a new little but very useful thing I taught Bobby. When we are out walking, especially in the snow, he tends to get his leash between his front legs when he does a lot of sniffing. Not too big of a deal as I would just take care of it by lifting his leg and get the leash back in place. Well, I thought why not teach him to lift the leg when I ask and then I don’t have to reach down. I now tell him, “Lift” and that leg/paw just lifts right up. Smart poodle that he is he learned it almost immediately. Makes my life just a touch easier. 😊

Zephyr does that too, his cue is "fix it". It is very useful!

"Disentangle" is our cue. One of those things I don't remember teaching, but continues to be useful!
