  • Hand signals
  • Targeting
  • Stand (great for grooming or visiting the vet)
  • Back up
  • "Leave it" (ignore it)
  • Wait when the car door is opened
  • Perfecting loose leash walking around distractions
  • And lots of other new behaviors.
  • Level 2 includes reducing and eliminating the use of the clicker
