Could be a breed thing, but I find it doesn't work, period.
And I doubt Siberian Huskies are the only breed that will
happily hang on the leash at a dead standstill.

And then there's the average bouncy adolescent retriever, who will leap
all over the owner, grab at clothing, and basically be a royal PITA,
whenever the owner stops.

I can picture an owner standing on their driveway getting their clothing
shredded, but damn - they aren't moving because the dog is acting up!

We spent an entire hour long class "being a tree" waiting for Atty to stop
pulling and barking (I want to PLAYYYY) so we could click and treat her.
Atty was 6 months old and our trainer had a baby, so we tried somewhere else
because I did want my 6 month old lab waiting until our trainer came back to
work 3 months later. It was one of those goody goody no correction clicker
classes. Did not work for us. It does work for some, but not mine.
