THE IMPORTANCE OF UNDERSTANDING TONES
The Importance of Tones when training correcting dogs and puppies.
Here at LL-DOG-TRAINING-ACADEMY. we focus on understanding of the dog and how they communicate with each other.
We use Body language tone and energy to achieve control not treat and tools.
Understanding tone is important.
Low. Tones are used to control dogs and puppies because low tones calm dog's energy.
How did we come up with this Concept.
We learnt from dogs. From a very early age not just being happy seeing what dog's did but figuring out why they did this.
Not in a school or lab setting but by spending hours and hours over 40 years watching dogs and how they behave.
Through this we learnt that low tones control energy and behaviour. A mother raising her puppies will growl at her puppies to stop them doing anything she does not want them to do. So we use this in our training low tone almost growl like commands to achieve what we want and proven it works.
Dont misunderstand the growl as aggressive it is not. Growl is the first part of the communication what the most important part is of this is how you are feeling at the time.
If you give strong low tone command and are calm your dog will comply calmly to this.
It you are nervous or anxious depending on the disposition of your dog it will respond either by cowering or getting protective.
If you are angry the dog will just submit to you as owner.
The reason high pitch sounds shouldn't be used in correction commands is they switch on high energy prey drive mindset.
I see lots trainer's using high pitch and treats to train dog's in my opinion both these thing's have flaws (as im sure has mine but not as bad) high pitch gets the dog to excited for most training.
We only use high pitched voice to engage in play this is the method we use to get our dogs to focus on the handler during training sessions. As high pitch noises get excited just like squeaky toys do. So only when dog or puppy becomes disengaged do we use high pitch or when puppy or do
THE IMPORTANCE OF UNDERSTANDING HOW YOUR DOG WORKS
The importance of understanding dogs in training is being lost.
Treats and Gimmicks are replacing learning a true understanding of the dog.
Here at LL Dogtraining Academy we focus on teaching how to understand the dog so you can achieve goals quickly.
In video is a young Mastiff Cross puppy.
Full of energy. We first teach owners how much you can achieve just being calm.
Then tone using low tone commands has a huge affect on the effectiveness of the command.
Body language watch as the owner keeps upright shoulders telling dog to Stay but just by dropping the shoulders dog cones right up receiving praise from owner.
This was achieved within a 30 min session outside not un isolation no treats been thrown around no gimmick collars just an understanding of the dog.
All our videos that you see are using the same technique and understanding visit page to view what can be achieved.
This was puppies first real training session.
Contact via WhatsApp for all training.
New classes starting 18th August 10am
New classes starting Early August get in touch for details
When you come to us for training we try to get you te oush your expectations beyond what you expect.
Rocky and Cookie started just 40 minutes before doing basic sit Stay.
Having the owners done some work before hand.
Because I noticed how quickly the dogs picked things up and if course how good the owners were we decided to push a bit further.
Great to see both dogs in Sit Stay position while the owners do figure 8 around them.
No harsh methods or over use of treats.
Just an understanding of how to use body language tome and energy to get the best from your dog.
Well done Cara and John
NEW COURSE STARTING SAT 10TH AUGUST 11AM CONTACT VIA WHATSAPP TO ENROL
GREAT FUN CLASSES FOR ALL THE FAMILY TO ATTEND
When we do classes we try to make it as realistic as you can.
Unlike others classes where there's no distractions and everything is kept quiet our classes get everyone involved.
Asking people just to walk around and purposely be that annoying person.
Teaching you how to control your dog even in awkward situations.
This was just half way through leash training class all dogs did really well today.
If you want to get your dog trained to listen to you even with lots distractions not using loads treats or gimmicks just using your energy to get attention then WhatsApp us here at LL-DOG-TRAINING-ACADEMY.
0858215401.
Have you a reactive dog.
Would you like to turn it into a sociable well trained dog?
Have you tried with other methods that just have not worked?
Get in touch with us today to start your journey to having a well behaved social dog.
The German Shepherd Luna and the Terrier cross Oscar where both highly reactive when they came to me first.
Contact us today on WhatsApp 0858215401 today to start that journey.
This is Oscar who came to me as a reactive dog.
Here at LL-DOG-TRAINING-ACADEMY we do not consider a reactive dog fixed just because it ignores other dogs.
They are fixed when they are able to socialise with other dogs.
As you can see with Oscar he has gone from a reactive dog to a sociable well trained dog as he bow attends advance classes.
This is because his Owner took on board the advice and instructions given and put the time into Oscar.
If you have a reactive dog who you feel is beyond hope please get in touch.
We will be only to glad to get you on the right track.
Reactive dogs are worked on in 1 2 1 sessions.
180 euros for 4 x 45 min sessions.

Nice bit work done this evening
As a dog trainer i never want the dogs to fear me.
This was the old way of training.
The dogs in video have been with me a while now and it really feels good when the dogs are so happy to see me.
REACTIVITY IN DOGS
I see lots posts about correcting reactivity in dog's.
Lots trainers saying distraction is key giving dog something else to think about when approaching what causes the reactivity.
Some trainers start with obedience saying it is giving the dog a different thing to think about.
I rarely here them starting with the owner and how the owners affect the dog's behaviour.
Here at LL-DOG-TRAINING-ACADEMY we focus on working with owners.
Firstly teaching the owner how to walk dog correctly on the leash.
Then we get straight to facing the issues that are causing the reactivity.
Showing owners how to stay relaxed and in control. The dog looks to you for guidance in all situations.
If you are scared ir anxious of how your dog will be in certain situations your dog will think its the situation making you anxious and not how your dog is going to react.
Because when it's just you and your dog everything is perfect so obviously they think it's the change in situation.
We have successfully corrected lots dogs with reactivity to different things once the owners work on the exercises we advise them to do.
We go from reactive to dogs being sociable and happy to be around the situations that used to trigger there reaction.
If you have an issue with reactive dogs any breed any age get in touch.

The Kerry Blue Cross and the German Shepherd in video where both reactive when they came to us.
Both Owners did brilliantly under our guidance.
Second video after leash training class. Owner thought to understand how they affect how the dogs behave.
Again we use understanding if the dog and how our behaviour affects the dog.
We do nit use treats or so called tools.
Simply we recommend a ft leash and a regular collar
Video 1 before completing first class which is leash training.
In group with distractions.
No gimmicks choke chain pring collar check leash.
None of these things are necessary
When these 2 started there journey with me both were reactive dogs.
Now they enjoy the advanced training we do every Sunday.
Great group of people to work with.
Always a fun class.
The Cane Corso was always a gentleman
If you have a reactive dog and have been told to rehome it ir get rid of the dog because you can't handle it by another trainer please before you do contact us.
We have at least 4 occasions where this has been the case only for these dogs to be living a grest life with there owners.
There is a fix 99.95 percent of the time.
