Basic obedience and problem solving

It’s always better to be proactive than reactive. The importance of a good beginning, building a strong positive foundation, problem solving and socializing with gentle methods. I can also address common behaviors like jumping, chewing or pulling. Learn your dog’s learning patterns as a trainer is able to guide the process while you as the owner, family and dog bond through the actual training.

My focus is to help the owner have a understand what positive reinforcement means and how we are going to use it to help communicate with your dog and how your dog communicate with you. requirements to start training: Most recent vaccines. 1 type of hard dog treats: Cookie treats 1 type of soft chew dog treats: freeze dried, train me dog treats, home made dog treats. 1 chew toy.

Typically in your home

We can also use a clicker to pair it with something rewarding for the dog and it becomes a very useful training tool, it is able to precisely mark any behavior the instant the dog performs it. Teaching the lure. Place a treat in the palm of your hand and close your fingers over it. Present your hand to your dog, wrist up and encourage him to touch your hand with his nose. When he does, say “good” or click (if using clicker) then open your hand and give him the treat. 10 good lures 10 good sits 10 good downs 10 good stays and working distance Learning to loose leash walk

Positive Reinforcement

Positive reinforcement involves giving a reward or reinforcing a desired behavior at the moment the dog performs that behavior to increase the likelihood that he performs that behavior again. This creates a dog whose primary motivation is based on earning a reward as opposed to avoiding the consequences. Bring a training collar, six foot leash, treats and treat pouch optional.
