When OK doesn't mean okay!
Could your everyday “OK” accidentally end your dog’s stay? 🐶
We say “OK” so often in conversation that a dog taught to use it as a release cue may hear permission to move—even when we’re talking to someone else!
Try a more distinct cue like “Release,” “Free,” or “Break.” Choose ONE, teach your dog what it means, and use it consistently.
