Park mine in the shade with "Kennel" (point the shade), "Stay". Every 10 - 15 minutes call the dog to "Heel" and repeat. Once an hour or so I'll check if I want any sticks retrieved. Wild water/country I will respond to "bear" or "coyote" and "cougar" warnings with appropriate arm in hand. In a boat with guides permission she lies beside me or beneath any decking as available. Proof that mini dachshunds are tractable. YDMV
