I have had a few requests to start posting more content from training clients dogs. Sorry it’s been a while but work is crazy, and I struggle to spend time on social media…
Welcome Dora…👋 Dora has been to a few trainers without any success, she would bark at people, dogs, cats and erm rubbish - yes that’s correct rubbish.
What did we do…⁉️ First we worked on the treat bar method, any time the triggers were presented in the environment, we “opened the bar” and any time the environment was clear, we “closed the bar.” We did this process with Dora wearing a head collar and harness for more control…👍
This worked fantastic with people and with rubbish…👏 However, dogs was still a problem. We decided to switch tactics and condition a word “enough” to mean if you insist on this behaviour a consequence that you would not like will be applied…⚠️
What did we use…⁉️
We simply applied gentle pressure to the head collar to have her look at us instead and within a few trials, the barking stopped & opened up a bigger window for positive reinforcement…☺️
Soon we only had to say the word “enough” and Dora stopped. Along with using a continuation marker and a reward marker - we were able to take the head collar off…🙌
⚠️ I have to mention that you MUST NOT use the head collar to give your dog leash corrections. This will cause injuries to your dog…⚠️ #dog #dogtraining #labrador #labradorretriever #labradorsofinstagram #barkingdogs #lungingdogs #kentdogs #ukdogs #dogsofkent #dogsofinstagram #gravesend #kent #positivereinforcement #dogtraineruk #dogtrainersofinstagram #problemsolvingskills #dogtrainerlife
🌟 Meet Monty, the Springer Spaniel who’s rewriting his walking script! Known for their pulling, Springers can be a handful, but not Monty anymore! His dog walker might have given up, but we doubled down on our unique training methods. 🐾✨
It’s all about communication, focus, and engagement. These aren’t just techniques; they’re the foundation of a deep, understanding relationship. See the difference in Monty’s demeanor and leash manners for yourself!
