Dog Control

Dog Control I train difficult dogs and teach people how to handle them.

These are the humble beginnings of what will later become a facility for boarding, daycare, and training.

Hank; Day 15
We all had a good ol' time with our buddy Hank. This was his last morning with us. I really like that little guy.

Proverbs 22:6
Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.

Hank; Day 11:
The NO command is often necessary to assist the COME when called, in order to free them from distraction. Timing is crucial. While dogs are responsive, give encouragement and affirm the command. While distracted, use NO to correct them. If NO, isnt enough, approach the dog to assert your yourself. That's usually enough to break the distraction, so switch back to the COME command and encourage them. If they're still distracted by the time you reach them, give a physical correction at the appropriate intensity, and repeat the exercise.

Isaiah 53:6
All of us like sheep have gone astray, Each of us has turned to his own way; but the LORD has caused the iniquity of us all to fall on HIM.

HANK!!! Day 3; Board and Train:
He's the brother of Stella, a black lab puppy I worked with last year. He'll be with me 2 weeks for basic training. He's a good hearted boy, smart and handsome too.
Oh, and pardon the pajamas please, I recently retired from 20 years Military service. 😃

Axle; Day 10
We honed in his heeling position today.

Colossians 2:6-7
6. As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him:
7. Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.

Axle, Day 5:
Today we started off leash training in town.

MAT 5:24-25
24. Therefore whoseover heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock.
25. And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house, and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.

Axle, Day 2:
This smart boy already knows basic commands, as many of my trainees do, so I want him to practice patience, and calming himself to get what he wants. A calm mind will allow him to listen, think and perform what he already knows. Patience will keep him out of trouble.

MATT 5:4-5
5. Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
4. Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.

Axle; Day 0
We'll be setting the foundation for training with leash control, E collar conditioning , and kennel conditioning.
I'm pretty sure he thinks he's being kidnapped right now. He does pull on the leash quite a bit and I heard he marks indoors.

PROV 4:1
Hear, ye children, the instruction of a father, and attend to know understanding.

Maple and Echo, Day 5, Board and Train:
the challenge with Echo is getting to mind while her prey drive is activated.
the challenge with Maple is getting her to mind at all!

[jam1:4] But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.

Maple and Echo, Day 4:
Echo is progressing well. She's smart, sensitive, tenacious , and bold. I've enjoyed our time together. I'll get some video of her working off leash in the neighborhood before she leaves. BTW I do teach HEEL, as a get behind me command rather that the conventional left side position.

Maple and Echo, Day 3

Just before this, she was on the table, and I said DOWN, like to lay down; but she jumped down to the floor.....technically she's not wrong. We'll keep working it.

19/10/2024

Maple and Echo, Day 2 (well, day 1 since I'm counting drop off as day 0), Board and Train

from smallest to largest:
Maple's working on a long rope for now, and slowly being conditioned for e collar communication.
Echo is off leash without e collar today, and treat training.
Dolly is on e collar to enforce boundaries around the smaller dogs and prevent over excitement while they play.
Dio....is just setting a good example to the others.

17/10/2024

Maple and Echo: Day 0, Board and Train

Maple will receive E collar conditioning to assist with escaping her fence and running away in public places

Echo was with me 6 nights already, but will continue to improve ff leash obedience, and more precise positioning.

07/10/2024

Echo (the little one); Day 0, Board and Train!
A little nip to claim her own space is understandable but if it goes on too long I will step in to provide guidance. Building trust and a good working relationship is important on day 1; walks together with Dio and Dolly (my danes) will help with that. Echo is here for 6 nights to receive e collar conditioning, advanced leash training, and basic off leash training.

13/09/2024

Maple (left) and Echo (right),
Tomorrow we start our 3rd day consecutive day of dog and handler training.

Maple will be working on her occasional over excitement and reactivity.

Echo will receive e collar conditioning and behavior modification to curb her prey drive.

The Heeling Stick! A nifty way to transition to off leash walks. Not used enough these days!

13/08/2024

The plumber's house has leaky pipes; the mechanic's car backfires and smokes; the dog trainer's dog DOES EVERYTHING IN HER POWER TO DEFY HIM! 😁
Dolly is 9 months now. Still the baby of the family, but it is time to start tightening up her obedience.

02/02/2024

Dolly, our great dane puppy 3 months old now. I'd like my clients to know that I am being reminded what it's like to own a brand new puppy. They can be so bad but so cute, and when its your own puppy, and no time hack to train them, it can be challenging. and so i wake up at odd hours to take her outside to potty, and she has accidents, cuz i try to shortcut and not kennel her when i should: and she chews up a few household items, and she steals my shoes, and the tv remote sometimes....and she likes to be carried, but she's getting heavy. I love her and its cool to experience the difference from training a client's dog.

Dolly, our Great Dane Puppy; 8 weeks old.
our new member of the family. This was her first time on the leash. She's got spirit thats for sure. I think she's more difficult than Dio (my 3 yr old dane) when he was that age, but he'll help us teach her. He's a big brother now.
