Your Doggy Buddy Dog Training

05/19/2024

The type of collar or leash isn't the focus; it's the type of training that matters. This pup has never been exposed to shock collars, pinch chokers, or harsh treatment. Correct bad behavior with short leash corrections or redirections. Bonding and communication are key.

Before you take your pup out in public make sure you are relaxed but ready for anything. Your pups must know you will take care of them not the other way around. This leadership should start at home and be practiced before venturing out into our strange and weird world . Imagine how this world looks to them!!

Keep your pups safe by teaching impulse control.

Teaching your dog to check in with you is one of the keys to hiking off leash no matter what distractions are around.

I think Quake is enjoying helping me to teach Luna her tricks!

A trained older dog and some stairs can teach a new pup new things. Elvis is helping me with Rowan.

There comes a time in training when you have to trust your pup will do the right thing. Chasing a dog rarely works but running the other way may! In this case, I threatened to drive away and it worked because I am Quake's leader.

Buddy! We have a 12 year relationship. We've been through a lot together. He lost many loving parents while I have known him but kept his cool personality and smarts.

This is Buddy! I taught him to "spin" and hike "off leash " over 10 years ago. He still remembers! This is the first time I have seen him since his owner passed away. Fortunately he's with a loving family taking good care of him.

You can teach your pup to " freeze" when they are in motion. " Stay" means don' t move from the spot they are sitting .

Impulse control and recall is so important to train your dog . She also knows not to harm but let the squirrel go up the tree to escape.

Impulse control is one of the best things to train your dog to have. They need permission first and then rewards.

Dogs can learn to control their prey drive if taught to only chase on command. That's why cattle dogs can herd whatever their handlers want. Quake was taught to herd squirrels.

Learning to catch is an important trick to teach for multiple reasons!

Learning not to pull Kourtney down the road didn't take long for Hogan when we started using the gentle leader. Soon we will be able to switch back to harness. Progress!

Puzzle solving is an important part of any training. It's also fun! Bailey was working on it for 2 minutes before she decided to take it to her spot and continue trying.

This is what "prey drive" control looks like. Not allowed to chase things until given the "ok"!
