Basic Dog Training Classes.


Professional "dog trainers" usually do not train the dogs, but actually train the owners how to train their own dogs.

Although it is also possible to send a dog away to a training school, the owner still must at some point learn what the dog has learned and how to use it and reinforce it.

Owners and dogs who attend class together have an opportunity to learn more about each other, dog behavior and how to work together under a trainer's guidance.

Training is most effective if everyone who handles the dog takes part in the training to
ensure consistent commands,methods, dog behavior and enforcement.

Formal training in classes is not always available until the puppy has completed all its vaccinations at around 4 months; however, some trainers offer puppy socialization classes in which puppies can enroll immediately after being placed in their permanent homes as long as disease risk is minimal and puppies have received initial vaccinations.

In most cases, basic training classes accept only puppies who are at least 3 to 6 months old.


Dog Training Secrets!

Communicating With The Dog

Fundamentally, dog training and dog behavior are about communication. From the human perspective the handler is communicating to the dog what dog behavior is correct, desired, or preferred in what circumstances.

From the canine perspective the handler must communicate what dog behavior will give the most satisfaction to his natural instincts and emotions. Without that inner satisfaction a dog will not work well.

A successful handler must also understand the communication that the dog sends to the handler. The dog can signal that he is unsure, confused, nervous, happy, excited, and so on.
The emotional state of the dog is an important consideration in directing the training, as a dog that is stressed or distracted will not learn efficiently. Source: Wikipedia
