What is the best way to keep my dog from chasing squirrels?

The best way to keep your dog from chasing squirrels is to teach them a “leave it” command. Start by teaching your dog to leave toys and treats alone, then gradually add in other items such as shoes, socks, and hats. Reward them for leaving the item alone, and if they don't obey within a few seconds, remove the item or give them a verbal reminder. This will help them understand that chasing objects isn't acceptable behavior.
