own pleasure. He must then be taught that no liberties 
will be tolerated, whether the cord restrains him or not. 
The trainer should keep a close eye on him, and if he 
dawdles behind, or attempts to break away to the rear, he 
should be forced to return to his proper place, and be 
punished according to his ne/eds. Nothing short of im- 
plicit obedience to orders should be accepted. If, from 
the beginning, he feels that the eye of the trainer is upon 
him, he will soon cease to take liberties which violates 
orders. 
On the other hand, he should not be kept so con- 
tinuously at heel that he becomes habituated to it, or 
acquires a liking for it. If he is of a lazy disposition, or 
easily wearied, he quickly learns the greater comfort at 
his master's heels than that to be found elsewhere. 
After a time the discipline will be firmly inculcated 
ind habitual. Then, whether the trainer is afoot, horse- 
back or in a wagon, the dog will reliably and cheerifully 
follow at heel when ordered to do so. 
The advantage of obedience to the command is spe- 
cially useful when two dogs are used at the same time 
afield. The ability to keep one dog at heel in a trained 
way while the other is working is a material advantage 
in many ways; it affords an opportunity t© rest one dog 
while the other is at work; it is a means of quietly re- 
straining one dog when interference is undesirable, as in 
reading, drawing, pointing, etc.; and it has a general 
moral effect by keeping the dog in proper restraint when 
he is not engaged in the work at hand. 
When a dog is to be worked in company with other 
dogs, it is well to teach him to go on from heel by merely 
speaking his name. Thus, if the two dogs A and B are 
at heel, and the trainer wishes the former to begin work, 
he utters the name of A, looking him in the eye at the 
same time. If B starts also, which he is quite likely to 
do at first, he must instantly be brought back to heel 
and kept there till the trainer orders him out. In time 
each dog will learn that when he hears his name uttered 
when at heel, it is the same as the order "Go on." 
•When the order is thoroughly inculcated, the trainer 
can take his dogs along following at heel, and send out 
with perfect ease any dog that he wishes to send.
