Cane did great with his training. We will miss him but we know his family is happy to have him home!
Cooper did great with his training! We will miss him but we know his family is happy to have him back home.
Everyone needs their own space every now and then, even your dog. The “place” command tells your dog to go to his space until further notice. He can sit, stand, lay down or walk in circles, it doesn’t matter as long as he doesn’t leave his space. This is a perfect command to use when you are cooking, eating, and answering the door, to name a few. Cooper is doing good with “place!”
Veda is doing so good with loose leash walking a kid can handle her. Great job Veda!
Coming when called even when you are playing with new friends. Great job Cane!
Walking your dog is good exercise for you and him but it’s no fun if he’s dragging you, choking himself or refusing to walk. With loose leash walking it is okay for your dog to walk out in front but it’s not okay for him to pull. This way he can have fun sniffing and exploring instead of being stuck by your side like in heel (there is a time for this command!). Before training Barlow was jerking on the leash and pulling me around. He was also jumping on me. He is doing much better. Great job Cooper!
“Leave it” can be a life saving command. You can prevent your dog from picking up something dangerous. It is also useful because you can use it for anything you want your dog to stop paying attention to. For example; leave that chicken, cat, squirrel, person, car, food, other dog, child’s toy etc. Good job Cooper!
Training through play is fun and effective. Cooper is working on “here”, “drop it”, and “leave it.” Plus he’s getting exercise. Great job Cooper!
Starting with the basics. Good job Cane!
