[nagdu] Problem

[Daryl Marie via nagdu]

BC/AB Guide Dogs uses "Over" and "In" to indicate whether you want the dog to keep to the left and right respectively.  Jenny likes to stay on the far left, so sometimes I will have to tell her "in" a couple of times if what I want is over on the right side, for example.  Perhaps do this with her, praise or treat or whatever you do when she continues to keep to the left?

The Seeing Eye uses the straight command only in street crossings, unless that has changed since I was there. I think rather than heel her and take a cane I’d work her, but you could have a cane out to your right and if she is veering, you could tell her “left left” until you got her back to the left and then praise her.
