I began heeling with him and he did nicely. At times he looked like a little show dog. Every time he forges or faults gently correct him with the lead and praise with uplifting voice tone to get his attention back to business. Pat the side of your leg to teach proper position. When he is too silly just sit and settle and begin again. Right turns and Right about turns are more difficult because you are walking away from the dog. So we need to teach him to bend to us as we make the right. Attention is so important.
New exercise Come When Called. He did well but needs a better understanding. Lots of practice. The thinking is that whenever we call him, he must respond and come directly to us no matter what the distraction. So have fun with the little guy. He looks so happy as he runs to you.

Also continued review of the Stand/Wait/Sit and Down/Wait/Sit exercises. We are able to increase the wait time. The sit from the down is very good.
Keep training.
