STAY! Dogs are way more visual than they are verbal, so the hand signal is the key to getting a reliable stay. Once you've got your little dog sitting, you'll ask them to stay with a hand signal.

If your dog gets up before you've released them, use your "no reward marker"-- Uh, uh! And ask them to sit again. Over time, you're then going to increase the distance and amount of time you ask your little dog to stay … Really important thing about stay. Is that you always come back to your little dog to let them up. You don't ever want to teach your little dog that they can jump up and run over to you. That could be a safety issue.
