You've got your puppy but how do you know if your dog is ready to be off the lead?

It's quite simple according to Miriam - your puppy should be on the lead until your recall is 110%

But it's not just about a reliable recall. Your dog also needs to be fully engaged.

Too many puppies go off leash too soon and that causes all sorts of problems.

Miriam explains how you can make sure you're letting your puppy off leash at the right time for your puppy and you.
