There are forms of hunting which are now illegal in the UK but some forms of hunting are not. Bird hunting seems to be a popular hunting sport for dogs and handlers. Hunting dog training is a lengthy, time consuming process which at the end is very worth it! You have to be completely dedicated and willing to put in a great deal of time to get the desired effects.There are three essential commands when teaching your dog to hunt. The commands are "whoa", "come" and "heel". Handlers believe that "whoa" is the most important of all three and is crucial...
You may think that dog training aids are out there for you to spend money and not actually reap any benefits from. That is not the case. Dog training aids are there to help you succeed in teaching your dog, this could be teaching him obedience, agility or any other type of teaching you want to do. There are many aids available but only a certain few will work with your dog and his temperament.I find the best training aid to be treats, small pieces of human food chopped up and given to him when he has done something good has always worked wonders,...
If you have problems in training dogs, youre not alone. In fact, most people who are dog owners who wish they knew how to effectively train their dog. Fortunately, there are several good ways to teach your dog obedience, and with what Ill show you in this article, you can be well on your way to have a dog behaves well. First, I must dispel a myth when it comes to issues of training dogs. You can not teach an old dog new tricks In fact, you can. Although it is easier to train a puppy, it is certainly not impossible to train an adult dog. Certainly,...
When it comes to crate training dogs, puppies are by far the easiest to train because they are young, they learn and adapt faster. At times, it is necessary to train an adult dog to use a crate. Most often, these are adult dogs that were rescued from a shelter and never learned the difference between inside and outside, when it comes to relieve themselves.NOTE: All dogs can be trained cash, some may panic and injure themselves.When this is not a crisis and you have the time to devote to most dogs can be trained body. To start this process you want...
......... my big brother.I thought Id post a photo of these two characters, Mylo ( the pillow ) and youngster Cleveland ( the head ).Paul took this during his lunch yesterday, after hed been out with them for a couple of hours. Now two hours walking is one thing, but if you add to the equation a river and sticks, you may as well double it, looking at the evidence !Later today I hope to take a few pics of my training guests, Teddie and Clara, both...
Puppy dog training for obedience is a topic close to the heart of dog lovers. Now, getting a new puppy in the house can be as joyous as having a new baby at home. It brings much excitement to everyone especially the kids. But you need to make sure that buying the puppy is not a decision made in haste or at the spur of the moment. Dogs are living creatures and not just gifts that need no maintenance. Though a little puppy can bring so much laughter and happiness, they do require a great deal of training and when that happens, it is not a fun thing...
Recently Ive had a young Border Collie staying with me, who if truth be told, proved to be quite a challenge - and I couldnt understand why.Arriving for residential training, Teddie just wasnt as receptive as most dogs are. She was a rather anxious dog to say the least, and I wondered if I would ever be able to allow her off the long line without seeing her run into the distance, oblivious to my commands. As Paul said, "shes a difficult one to figure...

Food rewards are one of the most effective ways to train your dog. Not really a big news flash there - just about everyone knows that Fido will do just about anything for some freeze-dried liver. The question isn’t if food rewards are effective, it’s when and how often should they be used? Should we use treats for every behavior we want to teach, and should we use them for problem behaviors we want changed? Some trainers rely on the use of treats solely and rarely do any kind of training without their trusty treat bag, while others downright refuse...
Therapy dog training, while important, is something with which many people are not familiar. A therapy dog is one that is used to do animal assisted therapy and activities. Organizations train the dog to help people in hospitals, schools, nursing homes, and virtually anywhere people need some sort of therapy. So, then, how do dogs become therapy dogs? It is a fairly simple process. A Good Citizen Though the requirements for therapy dog training vary from state to state, it is almost universal that the dog must be certified as a canine good citizen....
Dogs are considered mans best friend. Throughout the ages and of all animals, dogs have been mans companion. More than companions, dogs serve a variety of functions. There are working dogs (e.g., police dogs) and dogs that are used as guides for the disabled. Farmers and livestock owners use dogs for herding, and some home owners get dogs specifically to guard their property. Whatever the primary purpose of a particular breed of dog is, its important that it receive proper training. Many dog training professionals will attest to the importance...

This weekend I did a phone consultation with a family with an aggressive Rottweiler. In addition to being very aggressive with strangers, he also shows aggressive behavior toward his human family. He will not let anyone handle him, resource guards just about everything, and cannot safely be taken to the vet. I learned that the dog is eight years old and when asked how long the dog has been exhibiting the aggression, I was told for pretty much his entire life. For eight years his aggression has been slowly escalating and they have been living a...

Finally, Honey has met a dog she can look straight into the eyes of without suffering neck strain - and shes loving every minute of it! Tilly is here for several weeks and is more than a match for my little dog. Theres never any problems created between the two, just alot of mad dashes and even madder glances at each other ! "At last ...... Im taller than another dog !!! "The lovely dry weather somewhat disguises the real nip thats in the air...
