Summary

Drop It and Leave It are two of the most important cues for safety and trust. This episode explains why guarding develops, how to prevent it, and how to teach these cues clearly and confidently. You will learn how to reduce conflict, reward calmness, and build a dog that disengages willingly. These skills prevent problems before they escalate and create a respectful relationship around shared spaces and objects.
