A well behaved and well mannered pup can be the envy of any dog owner. Sitting, heeling and waiting on command are impressive tasks for our four legged companions to carry out. Basic obedience training is something that just about any pet owner can carry out with relative ease. Patience and confidence will be important factors in your success.Make no mistake, those well behaved dogs you envy did not learn those commands overnight. It takes practice,...

Picture of Brandon and I in the mirror? Moving on; when you (or your shopping friend) comes across something that you (they) REALLY want, look at the price tag first - cant afford...
Having the right attitude towards dog training is among some of the most important aspects to successfully train your dog. Sometimes you may not realized it but it is having a wrong attitude that could be the case on why your dog continues to have that behavior problem and the problem is still there despite efforts you put in to train your dog.It is not the techniques that are wrong but rather your attitude in doing the dog training. You...

Dog Training TipsIf youre looking for some good dog training tips, then you have reached your destination. Before we get into some cool dog training tips, you should first understand what your dog actually needs from you in a training situation and then learn how to give it to them.

First off:The guide dog school has just started neutering/spaying (some) of the guide dog candidates (the only reason why they werent being spayed/neutered, was the fact that all the dogs from SEGDI were in the "breeder program" too - but the...

Do you think your dog needs obedience or some help calming down? Well I am going to help you solve these problems with a few Dog Training Obedience Tips.Whether you have a puppy or an adult I can help. For example, if you have a puppy and you are trying to house train him you never want to rub his nose in his urine if he pees on the floor. This is a big DONT! If you do this the dog doesnt learn anything. It will actually frustrate and confuse the...

Hey furry friends!My raiser was asked to do a review for Easy Canvas Prints, and from what she told me - she was quite excited about it!She took FOREVER deciding on what picture she was going to pick... but in the end, she picked a picture of her & her sister. She still had many other pictures she wanted to use, so she asked Easy Canvas Prints if she could possibly review 2 canvas prints. When they told her yes, I was soo excited... because I...
Welcome to my blog site. I have been helping people for years with training issues with their dogs, as well as training my own. I currently own three German Shorthair Pointers, one generic farm dog, and a special mix affectionally known as a "Dobador Retriever". Years ago, we waited to train our dogs until they were 6 months of age. So much valuable time was lost, and studies have shown that it is much more beneficial to start at 10 weeks. Early dog training was primarily adversive or corrective, which was made popular by William Koehler. Koehler...

I betcha you never knew that there was a command for "BED"!You may think that every dog knows that command by heart... but maybe not the exact way I do :)What is the command bed"?When my raiser gives the command "bed" Im to find the closet dog bed and lay/sit/stand on it... until Im given the command "okay/take a break/come". This ISNT a "stay" command - as Im allowed to play on the dog bed... and get up and move around (as long as some part of my body is touching the bed... Im good!).This command is quite helpful for my raiser when we have company...

With the right tools, a little ingenuity and strict rules you and your dog can have a blast playing all kinds of games. Tug of War is just one of the many games that...
