Free Dog Training Tip

- Free Dog Training Tip: Words That Your Dog Should Know (Part 1) - Many dog owners are at a loss for words when they wish to communicate with their dogs. Of course, your choice of words is not the issue. What is important is that you pace your vocabulary lessons in such a way that your dog absorbs the first few definitions before you go on to the text. And, since dogs are learning English as his second language, you must be very consistent in your teaching. In fact, in time, your dog, once started on the road to a better, richer vocabulary, will understand long sentences and life-saving orders.
- Free Dog Training Tip : Words That Your Dog Should Know (Part 2) - The following is a list of words that are crucial to training your dog:
Stay (Freeze). Actually, the “Sit, Stay” is the way to teach vocabulary to a dog. It is through this initial discipline, which can be done very gently and without a choke collar on a very young puppy, that the dog learns how to listen and then how to learn.
- Free Dog Training Tip : Words That Your Dog Should Know (Part 3 - Enough (Whatever you are doing was Ok, but I've just changed my mind and now I want you to stop it, as opposed to “No,” which means whatever you are doing is unacceptable and should never be done). The command “Enough” is taught mainly, believe it or not, by tone of voice. It is usually learned rapidly and can stop excessive barking, a game of roughhousing that has gotten out of hand, or any activity that is usually ok but cannot, for whatever reason, continue at this point. It can calm a dog instantly. It can give you the full attention of a dog who was, up until a moment ago, acting up or acting out.
- Free Dog Training : Understanding Your Puppy's Limitations (Part 1) - To get your dog training on the right track, go slow with your puppy; allow him his puppy hood without rushing him through his training. Develop his prey instinct instead of repressing it so that you maximize its flexibility. With the flow of drive cooled by the prey instinct, limits that normally make dogs nervous can instead be converted into positive stimuli to work. On the other hand, if the prey instinct is violated, the puppy is filled with dread and a sense of alienation, giving a host of undesirable behaviors in his temperament.
- Free Dog Training Tip : Understanding Your Puppy's Limitations (Part 2) - An obvious limitation in puppies is that they tire easily, both emotionally and physically. Being young, the prey instinct isn't synchronized with the outside world; the puppy can't pace himself. He'll go at full tilt toward whatever is interesting him until he's exhausted. Conversely, he'll easily panic if something is upsetting him. When tired, a puppy will only learn to be nervous rather than how to do an exercise.
- - A popular veterinarian, behaviorist, and dog trainer, Dr. lan Dunbar has developed a six-level system of classifying bites. Below are the levels and a brief description of each:
- Free Dog Training Tip : Understanding Proper Discipline When It Comes To Dog Training - The dictionary defines discipline in several ways. I favor the following: "Discipline is a branch of knowledge or of teaching." I interpret this to mean that when an individual is motivated, he becomes self-disciplined by virtue of what he learns. It is an internal phenomenon. A musician isn't controlled by the conductor; his passion for music is channeled and orchestrated. The musician controls himself, as does an artist or a football player or anyone dedicated to his field.
