No Rocket Science in Dog Training!


No Rocket Science in Dog Training!

Kids doing Dog Agility

In one of training class in the East, I have a few very keen & motivated dogs; Casper a Maltese and Ollie a long hair Dachshund. Both has shown great attention in class. Recently we realized a dip in the attention span on the Maltese in Class.

After much discussion, we realized that it's because owners's parents has fed him before class. Having a full stomach will not be a good idea. Since we are using positive dog training methods & training our dog's responses positively is our main objective.

Dog being dog, if they learnt that with or without human in their life will not affect them, human values in their heart & mind will be the lowest. Being the lowest priority, why will our dog response to the owner? This is the main reason, why we need to keep our dog always dependent on us; for food or anything that is positive and good, revolve around the owner. This is to add value to the dog that all good & rewarding stuff comes from the owners.

In training there's no magic., neither is Dog Training a Rocket Seience! However trainers that exercies more common sense will be able to read from their dogs, what is needed to be done in order to gain control of the dog for better management.

Positive Dog Training uses reward base technique to train your dog. And you have to learn to have a eye for goodness. A eye to see and start rewarding your dog for any and every good behaviours; like Siting, relaxing, no barking, no rude towards another dogs .... after a period of reinforcement, your dog will start offering those good behaviours that he or she has been rewarded, thus making your dog a socially accepted Good Canine Citizen.

Have fun & stay positive!
