Training our dogs


No matter what breed of dog you have...training your dog starts with spending quality time with your dog.

I train my dogs to be socialized and well behaved through positive reinforcement.
But...

For this to be affective I first start spending time with my dog to establish a bond.

I don't want a dog that listen to commands because he is scared of me...I want a dog that wants to react to desired cues.

This I create through having fun together and trusting each other.

For that bond to really be cemented I sometimes take some time and "listen" to my dog and let him show me the way.

Training is not about learning to sit and walk at heel.

It's rather about daily life situations.

I teach my dogs cues to cross the road in a certain direction to keep them safe.

I teach my dogs to jump on the bed so that I can teach them to stay off the bed.

My dogs have learned to wait for food until I say its okay they may eat.

Yes my dogs can sit and do down cues but that's not my main goal when training.

Training your dog should be to help your dog be in harmony with you and your family.
