Dog training – Initial Training

Dogs are known as a faithful animal, most dog owners or dog breeders would love to have a calm and obedient a dog. It is said that a calm and an obedient dogs can be acheved by a good training program on how to train a dog. Moreover, these trained dogs will have lesser tussles with people and other dogs.

If it is a puppy, you will need much more patience and time to house train your puppy correctly.

If you want your puppy to use the bathroom outside, you have to observe to its need to use the bathroom. When he needs to go outside, it will help if you condition him by saying "outside" or "out" in a high-pitched tone of voice, just to get him used to the idea of where he is going. He will soon learn what you mean and that it is time to go to the bathroom. Never forget to reward him with a praise when he follows or obeys your command.
Whatever dog training we give the dogs, there are some basic trainings and commands a dog must understand and follow. There is will be great to have a good program on how to train a dog.

Some of these commands are:

· Sit – Training your dog to sit on a command is a basic and an important part of any dog-training program.

· Stay – A well-trained dog should be able to remain where his or her owner commands. So stay is another very important command in dog training.

· Down – Lying down on command is more than just as necessary; it is a key factor of any successful dog-training program.

· No – the word “NO” is one word that all dogs must learn and obey. Training your dog to respond to this important word can save you a lot of unnecessary trouble.

A well-trained dog will respond well to all the owner’s command. This dog will not be confused or show displeasure. Therefore, to achieve this it is vital to embark on a good dog training program.

Also a well-trained dog will also be a very good companion to you and your family. Further, you will have fewer problems like getting into tussles with people or with other dogs. So a good dog training is necessary

Obedience training is essential and is a great way to satisfy some of the dog’s own needs, example, exercise, relationship with it’s owner or handler.

Obedience training should be on going sessions; apart from dog training, playtime should be part and parcel of the training. This will ensure that the dog does not become bored and it also reinforces the bond between the owner and the dog.

Have many happy years with your friend and companion. Cheers

Agility and Disk Dog Seminar

Cyndy Douan of the Georgia Dog Gym put on a great hands on presentation hosted by PJ The Dawg Trainer in Foristell, MO.

Learning the correct way to teach your dog how to do a jump or obstacle from the very beginning makes the rest of the course run much smoother. Agility is much more than blowing through a set of obstacles as fast as your dog can run. Doing the obstacle correctly, safely, and confidently comes first.

The seminar taught us to work on jump drills that in itself can be great fun for the dog! and help with direction changes and working away from the handler, we learned the correct ways to teach the dog weave poles without having to lure the dog through the whole line, and we learned the importance of the Pre Agility work that can be done at home without the need of obstacles.

I highly recommend Cyndys approach to the sport even if you are just wanting to have fun with your dog. As for the Disk Dog part, well, I had no idea there was so many correct ways and non correct ways to hold and toss a frisbee and to do so that the dog can catch it correctly on top of that. I have a lot of practicing ahead of me just so DeeDee can go out and catch a few. Maybe Ill get good enough at it to keep the disk in the air long enough for her to actually catch one!
