How to Teach the Place Command | Dog Training for Boundaries & Calm Behavior

Does your dog struggle with guests coming through the front door? Do they beg while you’re eating or hover in the kitchen? In this video, I show you how to train the place command using positive reinforcement, giving your dog a clear, calm spot to go to and stay until released. The place command is one of the most useful real-life skills you can teach your dog. What the place command helps with • Front door manners and guest greetings • Kitchen boundaries while cooking • Preventing begging during meals • Teaching calm behavior during busy moments • Helping dogs stay settled in one location When trained correctly, place is an implied stay, meaning your dog remains on their spot until you release them. What you will learn in this video • The difference between stay and place • Why your dog needs a solid stay before place • How to load a place object correctly • Using beds, blankets, towels, or raised cots • Why portable place setups are so powerful • How to build distance and duration • When and how to add distractions • Common mistakes that cause dogs to break place You will also learn how to avoid over-repeating cues and how to teach your dog to wait calmly for a release word. Why portable place matters By training place on a blanket or towel, you can take this skill with you to: • Coffee shops • Restaurants with patios • Friends’ houses • Outdoor events This turns place into a lifestyle skill, not just a home behavior. Training notes • Place is taught in small, manageable increments • Distance, duration, and distraction are added gradually • Dogs should never be set up to fail • Clear release cues prevent frustration This method is force-free, realistic, and appropriate for puppies, adult dogs, and rescue dogs.
