The focused heel is an obedience exercise that requires the dog to stand on the left side of the handler, walk at the same pace as the handler, and maintaining eye contact. This is considered one of the most complicated behaviors to teach a dog to perform correctly. It requires many hours of practice, however, if you put the time in, this can quickly become one of your favorite exercises to do with your dog.
Here are the ten steps in order:
1) Engagement training/teaching the markers/developing the sit front
2) Developing your dogs focus in the heel position
3) Developing your dogs focus in the center position
4) Teach your dog to walk while maintaining the center position
5) Use power steering to teach your dog how to maintain heel position while walking.
6) Use power steering to teach the auto sit when halted
7) Learning and stepping with the heel command using food
8) Learning and stepping with the heel command without food
9) Teach your dog to pivot left by using the spiral technique
10) Teach your dog to pivot right by using the spiral technique
Be sure to check out all the other dog training videos on my channel. You will learn how to train your dog to sit, down, come, heel, stay, and much more. One of the most common questions I receive is how to potty train a dog. Well, guess what, we have that video as well. Not to mention how to crate train a dog and even service dog training.

Big thank you for this, currently training my year old Eastern European shepherd who is very obsessed with everything and anything,her drive is remarkable but it’s left me struggling to gain focus with her. I’ve started doing what you have been instructing and I’m getting results, obviously she’s not perfect but without doubt I have complete faith she will get there using your methods. Big thanks from me Sir 👍
Hey Nate, I have a question. Will this method work for 5 year old chorkies? I know they are older now, and I feel bad for not training them sooner, but now I want to better them.
What do you use for treats? My Mal is not food driven at all and using a tug toy or ball will take forever 😂
The person who gave a thumbs down is a jealous trainer you are stealing the show when it comes to given out free lessons I am learning them all and my girl is doing great thank you
Lol! Thanks for the support, I appreciate it and I'm happy the training is helping. Also, be sure to join my new Facebook group to continue learning how to train your dog with direct support from me and the rest of the community. :) facebook.com/groups/NateSchoemers/
I think 🤔 it’s a old girl friend 😂great video thanks 🐶
Or maybe it’s someone that sees what a distraction being an animal owner is.
I liked the video but I wish audio was better
@@NateSchoemer trying to get in to and join in Facebook but I don't know what is going on, doesn't do anything yet. Please help.
This is the most in depth, easy to understand, and effective video I have ever seen for focused heel training. I’m trying to train my medical alert SD the basics on my own so I only have to pay for the specialized alert and response training and videos like this help me out so freaking much. Thank you so much for this video and anyone questioning if it works.. IT DOES. FANTASTICALLY.
What I loved most was seeing the dog's mistakes here and there. It keeps it real!
Thanks, Carmen!
The most complete and comprehensive dog training on TH-cam. I’m getting my puppy in June. I’ve read 3 books and countless hours on TH-cam. These videos are consistent between skills and it’s an approach that builds on the skills. I’m an experienced dog owner but this has taught me a seamless approach!
That's so awesome and thank you for the kind words! I really appreciate it. I also recently started a facebook group to support this TH-cam channel and everyones training. You can find it at this link. I hope to see you there! :) facebook.com/groups/NateSchoemers/
Love the focus heel. Love teaching it to my clients who have dog reactivity problems with their dogs.
Best heeling video I’ve seen so far!
Wow, thanks! I appreciate that, Tracy! :)
I recently adopted an 8 month old Belgian Malinois from the shelter and was overwhelmed with negative behavior that I’ve had to correct. Watching this video alone I put my dog in a focused heel and center walking command within a couple days. I’ve watched countless training vids, but this is the most comprehensive and helpful video I’ve watched. Thank you so much for providing an excellent Malinois training vid! My boy is a completely different dog !
This video made the difference between a continuation marker and a terminal marker clear in a way I hadn't completely understood before. Thank you so much for all your hard work in making these.
My pleasure. Thanks for watching and I'm happy the video was helpful. :)
Same here, great videos Nate
I love how much you take care of Ari, she really has so much fun while training and I admire that.
Thanks! She's my little superstar! :)
This is everything I’ve been needing! Thanks so much!
This is Priceless stuff. Thank you!
Thank you so much for this! Can't wait to check out your other videos
Amazing thank you so much!! Keep making these great work you two are doing !
This is excellent, easy to follow, no BS. Thank you!
One of the best training videos on TH-cam. Thank you!
Wow... incredible!
I am amazed at how simple you made it and understandable. Thank you
Yes! ... it is always a pleasure to hear what you explained with such clarity and simplicity ... free! :-)
Let me say it's sooooooooo refreshing to see a trainer without corrections or a bunch of video edits. I don't think he even said "no" one time. I LOVE IT! You got a new subscriber. Can't wait to check out your other videos.
Thank you, Andrew! I really appreciate that! :)
our 3-month-old shepherd is herding us so this will give us some more training ideas. good video
Thanks and best of luck!
What an excellent tutorial, thank you!
I love this video!!! I can teach tricks well but wasn’t sure how to do obedience like this and we’re getting a big dog this time! You broke it down easy to understand !!
The best dog training video I’ve ever watched. Each step is explained very well, this was very helpful, thank u so much!!
Great video for fundamentals of the heel!
This is free game! I appreciate you Nate ✊🏾
Loooove the detail you went into. Thank you so much!
My pleasure. Thanks for watching and commenting!
This is amazing!!! I just started watching your videos and
I just started fine tuning my 4yr old Staffordshire & she is doing great.
This is a super helpful video in preparing for AKC Novice competition and for just increasing engagement while walking. 💪🏼🐺
I’ve been looking for a simple step by step guide to help take my dogs obedience to the next level and get him ready for sporting work. This was great!
Incredible
This is EXACTLY what I needed to work on my dogs focus! I have a year old ESS and he is AMAZING - but I struggle with keeping his focus at times.
Excellent.
Wow one of the best and most comprehensive videos on heel I've ever found and I've searched and searched for something like this. Absolutely great. Anyone who follows this video and has the patience to get each step completed will have amazing results.
Wow, thank you!
thank you so much for breaking this down step by step! i've been doing basic obedience since i brought my boy home (my first GSD) and want to move on to more focus based training once he's got the basics down. definitely going to be using this to help me train Quixote in the future!
Thank you so much for all of your videos!
Thank you! You are so welcome! :)
my dog learned this in one day. amazing ! thank you!

I have a year old Schipperke. The breed is notoriously willful and hard to get focused. We’re taking Obedience / Agility classes now and your videos are very helpful. 💪🏼🐺
Honestly, you're the best I've ever seen coach & loved the way you treating the dog to take the the orders
Go on you're doing well👍

Another great lesson.
Thank you Carole :)
Amazing video!
This is amazing. You explain each step so clearly and im starting with my dog doing this now and so far shes getting it so well! Her main struggle is focus and i was looking all over the internet on how i can teach her more consistent focusing. Shes a puppy still about 5mo old but she can learn easy. She already knows 5 commands that are basic ones. She loves to learn. I came across this and will forever follow you for sure. Thank you so much for making this!!!
Awesome! Thanks for sharing and I'm happy the video was helpful. If you want more focus, then I would also suggest this video. Check it out and let me know what you think. Cheers! th-cam.com/video/UkZ7ucpK9sc/w-d-xo.html
