What a U Turn Is Actually Teaching Your Dog

Описание: U-turns are one of the most commonly suggested leash-walking tools — and also one of the most misunderstood.

In this video, we explain what a U-turn is actually teaching your dog, beyond just changing direction, and why it sometimes works beautifully… and other times seems to fall apart.

This video covers:

What information a U-turn communicates to your dog

Why timing and intention matter more than mechanics

When U-turns help create calm walks

When they can accidentally increase frustration or pulling

This is not a drill-based tutorial.
It’s a concept video designed to help you understand why and when to use U-turns — not to turn them into a reflex or correction.

When you understand the purpose behind a skill, leash walking becomes clearer, calmer, and more cooperative.

If this approach resonates and you want help applying it consistently with your own dog — across real environments and real life — that’s exactly what we support inside Club Doghouse.

Calm walks don’t come from reacting faster — they come from clearer communication.
