Week 14. Teaching calm on a mat is the skill that makes restaurants and visitors possible.
The mat
A small washable mat. Every time the puppy steps on it, a treat lands on it. Within days the puppy chooses the mat.
Settle
Reward lying down on the mat. Then reward staying there while you take a step away.
Take it with you
The mat goes to a friend's house, then a patio. Same rules everywhere.
