German Shepherd confused when his human hides. Adorable video:

[Doreen]

29. I had my service dog trained to work off leash.

I also had very soft directional pulls on his leash for certain commands when he was next to me and could not look at me. Out in public his commands were silent. He did everything by hand command. I would not work him without a leash in public but the way I did it he might as well not have had one. Well, actually I did work him without one in public due to a job that I had that he could not be beside me but he stayed in his place and if I fell he was there immediately to help me. Once in a while when some people would walk by he would get up and just come sit next to me ( he knew. ) At home we would play hide and seek also and I think that was actually a good refresh training to encourage him to want to know where I was at all times. He was one hell of and awesome German Shepherd.
