Calm owners have calm dogs. It's good for all of us!

I am not perfect. I do overreact, but it's almost always when I am doing too much, and I am tired. I am learning to control my time and my energy, so that I can be calm more often. I am also learning to tap out when needed and give myself grace to rest and rejuvenate.

The other times that I don't give my best to a dog or client is when I don't have a plan. Sitting down and thinking things through is so important, then creating a strategy for next time.

The dog keeps picking clothes from the laundry basket. Think. Next time he does it, I will......

The dog keeps jumping on me when I let him out of the crate. Think. Next time, I will....

We are smarter than a dog. We have resources that they don't have. We can make plans, learn new skills and choose how to behave.

When we behave well, our dogs behave well.

Is your dog REALLY crate trained?

Easiest way to tell is to change something and see what happens.

Change the location of the crate, the time he goes in or the ritual you use (like tossing a treat in first.)

Really great crate training means the dog goes in when you ask him to and is calm and quiet while crated, anywhere, at anytime.

This pup is conditionally crate trained in his house with his routine and the other dog in the house near him. Here, he didn’t know a cue to go in and barked and whined, even though it was his normal time to be crated.

I’m going to make this so much better for the owner and the dog. Being stressed and upset is not part of crate training.

16/08/2024

Watch the difference between the first try and the second. Being prepared with a strategy makes all the difference. We don’t want this dog going up to strangers because he doesn’t always make good choices! Keeping your dog near you builds value in you and keeps everyone safe. Marshall Dog Training

What if we taught dogs to give things to us, rather than taking things from them?

Training isn’t just for “bad” dogs. Like school isn’t only for “dumb” kids.

Gorgeous Bear is smart and filled with potential!

I am super excited to start working with a dog named Bear today! He is a fantastic dog, with amazing potential who is currently driving his family nuts. If the family stays on board with my advice, he will become a dream dog. I'm so excited!

The DNA says he is a cattle dog, begian mal, dutch shepherd and german shepherd.

Can you guess the behaviors they are struggling with?

I love everything about this picture. Notice the space between the dogs? They both are chewing a toy and minding their own business. This is ideal. Dogs have a great need for personal space, and it can become even more important when they have something valuable in their space; food, you, their bed, etc.

Because we love our dogs, we often forget to respect their space. We like to be really close, even on top of each other!

I like to use this rule:

If I want to touch a dog or enter its space, I ask and respect the response.

If a dog wants to touch me or enter my space, I let it know if I agree or not. I then teach the dog how to "ask" me in the future and respect my response.

This mutual respect creates a relationship based on communication, trust, respect, and rarely causes issues that can lead to becoming annoyed or angry or even bitten by the dog.

We all deserve to have our personal space! This is a beautiful picture of enjoying closeness with respect and safety. Th...

It's very common to hire a trainer when you are at your wits end. We humans, often need to be very uncomfortable before we are willing to ask for help and relief. The trouble is, that when YOU are at the end of your rope, you are often exhausted, emotional and tapped out, and unable to do what is needed to train the dog because you are so burnt out.

Waiting too long to get help sabotages you and the trainer, and creates a very difficult path to success.

Hiring a trainer requires you to learn new skills, be present and listen, devote time and money and be consistent. All so hard, when you are frustrated!

What is the answer to this human issue??

The real answer requires the public to be educated on what dog training really is!

Dog training provides you with valuable information on what to do and not to do, things to purchase that work, and provides you with guidance and support while your dog is learning the rules you are establishing. It's not simply sit, down, and stay. It's learning how to live with the dog you have and get what you need. All incredibly simple when the owner is available physically and emotionally.

What if you haven't done this and you are emotionally exhausted?

You will need to dig deep and ask yourself if you really can give your dog what it needs. You will need to put your feelings aside and find the time and strength to train your dog despite your feelings. You will have to take responsibility for NOT getting preventative training and put in the time to reverse behaviors.

I am happy to help this process -it's about 90% of my clientele. I can motivate you, soothe you, make it as easy as possible, but in truth, this costs you more! The attention I put on owners is unreal! Once you are present and able to listen, training the dog is so easy!

Problems start small and innocent and turn into desperate situations all too often. Dog training is like medical care. We can do a lot to prevent and even fix minor problems, but if you let a situation get out of control, our effectiveness lessens. Call a trainer now! A phonecall is free.

I love Dogs..

Simple and true!

18/07/2024

A question I get asked all the time is, "How long will it take to train my dog?"

My answer is it depends! Some things to consider:

What are your goals?
How much time are you willing to put in?
How much money is available?
Does your dog have existing problem behaviors?
Is this a puppy?
What methodology or structure appeals to you?

I don't have a program that is a set time with set goals. I consider the owner and dog and we come to an agreement that works for you. Here is a blog that you may find enlightening!https://maggiedogtraining.com/maggies-blog/2022/4/12/myths-and-misunderstandings-about-dog-training

It's normal to be frustrated when your dog won't listen.

But, did you know they have to be taught?

Here is a simple way to teach a dog to look at you when you say his name. This simple training tool can help you do so many things like, keeping your dog's attention on a walk, being able to call him away from things, and it can even double for leave it!

Try it and let me know how it goes!

What if what your fearful dog needed was the hardest thing for you to give it?

People have a hard time with giving space and patience. We try too hard to make things happen, to find the quick fix, and force things.

I'm not saying we should just wait around and do nothing when we have a fearful dog. I'm saying that one major component is respecting the dog's needs and allowing for things to take their time to work.

Fear is an emotion, not a behavior. It often can be changed through behavioral training, but only the dog can directly change his own fear.

Good training will set up his environment with structure and appropriate experiences to build confidence and teach skills, then leave it to the dog to do the hard stuff.
