Free Training! How to teach your dog remote collar heel (and get a better state of mind on the walk)

A person holds a yellow mini educator remote as Jeff and Joelle’s golden retriever puppy sits in the background on grass during Live Training.

If your walks feel chaotic, exhausting, or straight-up embarrassing…

It’s because your dog has no clarity.

And without clarity, dogs default to controlling the environment themselves — pulling, scanning, reacting, ignoring you, or blowing up at triggers.

In this free training, we’re going to show you the exact methods we use to reset a dog’s state of mind on the walk, not just make them walk politely for five minutes.

Because the heel position is bigger than just a position, it’s a “follower” state of mind. And when a dog is in follow mode, they’re calm, relaxed, and receptive to the information you give them.

Most of the information online is either outdated, flat-out wrong, or designed to make you afraid. This free session cuts through the noise and shows you exactly how to use an e-collar safely, humanely, and effectively — so your dog can actually listen anywhere, no matter what.


Live training from our in person seminars, Real Demos, and Straight Answers

If you’ve been curious about using an e-collar but you’re overwhelmed by all the conflicting advice out there… this free training is for you.

This Is NOT a Basic Heel Tutorial

You won’t find:

  • Treat luring
  • Endless repetition
  • “Be more exciting than the environment” advice
  • Or a dog glued to your leg only when food is involved

Instead, you’ll learn:

✅ Why heel is about proximity, accountability, and leadership
✅ How structure instantly lowers arousal
✅ Why dogs become calmer when rules are clear
✅ How we communicate with the e collar without creating “fear”
✅ Why this behavior on the walk transfers to the rest of your dog’s life and mindset

This is not about obedience for obedience’s sake. It’s about creating a dog who can exist calmly in the real world.

Why This Training is a Game Changer

We’ve trained over 15,000 dogs worldwide — from puppies to serious aggression cases — and we’ve seen firsthand what happens when owners get the right information and support:

  • Dogs stop bolting out doors and dragging their owners down the street
  • Reactivity and constant barking finally get under control
  • Owners get peace of mind knowing their dog will actually listen when it matters most

If your dog improves just from this one exercise…That’s not luck. That’s the power of training.

And it’s usually the first sign that your dog needs more structure across their entire life, not just on walks.
