This is how I start to train my puppy to heel and walk nicely in the correct position. I use a small treat in this case cheese which I give to the pup when it is walking in the correct position. I am just leading the puppy where I want it to be using the cheese in my hand and adding the heel command. I find this helps when you put them on the lead as they already have an idea where you want them to be when you say heel. Doing it this way I don't have to pull it into position so much when I start with the lead. Many ways to skin a cat tho. This way works for me.
