As you can see in the YouTube video below, we had a visit from David and Cindy from “Dog Training Elite”. They have assisted with several of our dogs in getting them ready for service training. If you’re considering the possibility of enrolling your dog into service or therapy training, or if you’re simply looking for obedience classes then reach out to them and they will do a phenomenal job!

It’s vital for pups to start gaining “experiences” as early as possible in order to grow into well-adapted dogs. Fortunately, with a house full of kids there are always plenty of new “experiences“ to be had! 😊

Playtime!

Puppies and Dogs come hardwired with the desire to communicate with humans, but we do not speak the same language. Many dogs try to communicate by jumping up on us, barking, or putting their paws on your leg. To avoid this we have to reprogram our dogs and teach them the proper way to ask for things. We use the “clicker training” method and teach them something called Manding, which is defined as “the skill of asking for something we want”. In the first part of the video, you will see a puppy in its very first training session. We teach the puppy that he or she can offer a behavior that can earn them a reward. This starts off very simply with the puppy getting a treat each time he or she interact with the box in front of him. Each time the puppy touches the box, you will hear the clicker, and immediately the puppy is treated. The goal is to reprogram the Puppy to “sit” in front of us and make eye contact when they want something instead of jump or paw. So once the puppy catches on, and realizes that they can offer a behavior, we show them the desired behavior that they can offer. In this case, the desired behavior is “sitting with eye contact”. The second half of the video shows the puppy doing just that. When the puppy comes up for a treat, as soon as its bottom hits the ground, you will hear the clicker and a treat is given. 😊

“Sound Protocols” - once we notice the first ‘startle response’ we start using sound in several ways: 1.) Classical Music - research has shown that a dog that listened to at least 45 minutes of classical music per day spent more time sleeping, barked less, and shook less than dogs, who listened to no music or other kinds of music. (Video 1) 2.) Habituation recordings/television - no more than an hour per day, usually on our living room floor laying with the kids. (Picture) 3.) Quiet room for sleeping at night. 4.) Startle recovery exercises (video 3 with the pot) It is also important to start exposing pups to “upsetting noises” like blow dryers or vacuums. (Video 3)
