| answered a question | What is the best backpack for a dog? It depends on what you are looking for but I personally love Ruffwears Palisades but it is a little pricy. Here's an article comparing the "best" packs to give you some options: http://themodernbark.blogspot.com/201... |
| answered a question | How do I get my two dogs to understand which one I am talking to? Just some advise, you shouldn't use your dogs name before scolding them in anyway. They will learn that their name can be bad and could not listen to you when you want them to, or need them to. Even if you use it before reinforcing a behavior, using it before punishing as well will confuse them and throw off their training. |
| answered a question | Why don't other dogs like my dog? It could be the behavior or signals that your dog is doing that is making other dogs uneasy around your husky but I can't say for sure without seeing it. If you would film your dogs meet & greet and play behavior with other dogs the next you visit the dog park and post it on here, I may be able to give you an answer if that is the case. Another possibility is that some dogs just don't like fluffy dogs, especially if they are high energy. |

| answered a question | What's the best way to start with clicker training? If you are looking to get into clicker training, I definitely recommend checking out the Karen Pryor Academy's Foundation Course. I was looking to become a positive reinforcement trainer and had Karen Pryor recommended to me by a certified trainer at the dog daycare I was working at. I took the course a couple months ago and have to say that it is phenomenal. It not only teaches the basics to clicker training but also to dog behavior. I felt like it was extremely easy to learn from. I liked it so much, I am sticking with the Karen Pryor Academy and starting the Professional Program in September. |
