Training Q&A - Going Straight to Heel & Failing the Go-out

Have you ever struggled with a dog that starts going straight to heel in competition instead of coming to front? It can be a frustrating problem, especially if you allow it to happen in the ring because you want to qualify for an elusive leg you need for a title (especially when pursuing an UDX!). 

What about a dog that seems to be able to do go-outs everywhere you train, but is failing to find the location of the go-out when in competition? Another frustrating problem, but the reason is often easy to understand and subsequently, easy to fix.

Enjoy!
