As a Beagle dog dad and certified KPA dog trainer, I always hear these comments and get asked these questions while walking Churchill:
"Wow, you're brave having a Beagle off leash!"
"Doesn't he take off on you?"
"I'm surprised he isn't following his nose!"
"He walks nicely on a leash. How is that possible?"
"You can't teach a Beagle recall, especially without an e-collar."
In response, I explain that it's because I've trained Churchill to associate positive things with me rather than solely focusing on the ground. This teaches him the value of keeping his head up, staying close, and paying attention to me. However, it's essential to remember that breed generalization can be misleading. While Beagles have certain traits associated with them, every dog, regardless of breed, has individual preferences and things they find rewarding. It's important to stop the assumption that all dogs of a specific breed will behave in the same way. Instead, let's focus on the acronym LEGS—Learning History, Environment, Genetics, and Self—to gain a better understanding of who your dog truly is.

Are you struggling to figure out a way to ensure you’re prepared to start your training session ? These 8 steps will help you ensure that not only you’re prepared to start your session, but you will be able to notice your dogs progress and you continue to work on their skills.
Step 1: Grab your clickerStep
2: Count out your treats ( Reinforcers) for rewarding the behaviour you’re working on and place them in your treat poach or bowl. Around 20/30 will give you a 3-5minutes session depending on how fast you reinforcer your dog and their understanding of the skill you’re working on.
Step 3: Get your phone or stove timer or stop watch and set it to be between 3-5minutes. This time frame set up is ideal as dogs learn best in short training sessions.
Step 4: Ensure all of your equipment: your clicker, treats and objects( if used in session) are near you before starting the timer.
Step 5: Ensure your dog is able to work. This means give him/her a treat to see if they’re not overstressed in their environment and can and want to work.
Step 6: Start your timer
Step 7: Start your training session, click and treating your dog for the behaviour you’re looking for. When the timer goes off ensure you end on a high note. You can do this by giving your dog some love high praise at the end of the session or something valuable like a bone as it reinforcers how much fun training is.
Step 8: Write down your sessions notes as it will help you determine when to raise criteria and how your dog is performing. Things to write down is time of day, location, number of treats, length of session, how many times did you reinforce your dog and other things you noticed while training that day, such as level of enrichment or dog wasn’t feeling well can be taken into account to give you a clear picture on how your dog is progressing.
