Protection Training
& Obedience Training
We Offer Both
Muzzle training if done incorrectly can make a dog dangerous, never force a muzzle on to a dog. Our protection training has an acclamation method that uses positive reinforcement to create a positive association with the muzzle, making every dog comfortable and happy to comply without shaking or scratching. Solve both nipping and fully aggressive behaviors while able to reward your dog with treats through the front treat hole of the muzzle.
The Best Training
To Solve Every Problem Start With “Come”
Come on leash and Long line recall- The come leash exercise is when the owner leaves the dog in a sit-stay, walks to the end of the leash, faces his dog, and using their dog’s name gives the “come” command. At this time, the dog should come in a controlled manner and sit in front of their owner. If the dog does not respond when asked to come, repeat the command with proper motion.
using your hand to guide your dog moving towards you, slide your hand down the leash towards your dog. This will put your hand in the proper position to guide with a leash and collar if the dog does not sit down when he comes to you. If the dog moves before he is called, you should heel him back to where he was sitting and repeat. Appraisal is always given when the dog responds to the first command given.
Prevent Unwanted Pulling With Advanced “Heel”
With Turns & Speed Adjustments
- Dog at heel on leash– The proper heel position is having the dog parallel to your side with the dog’s ear even to your thighs. When walking with your dog at the heel, your leash should always be loose. Place your hand on the leash in an overhead position about four to six inches from the dog’s neck. Your arm should hang naturally to your side.
- The only time the leash will change position is when the dog is either too far ahead, too far behind, or too far out to the side. The correction for this is the opposite of where the dog is. For example, if the dog is too far ahead, you correct the leash straight back while saying “heel!”. Immediately return the leash back to the proper position and your arm hanging naturally to your side as before.
- When giving a correction, you should not raise your voice. If more than one correction is needed, gradually go back to teaching stage with adjustment of collar and praise until the dog responds.
- Heel is by far the most important position within the commands. It sets the stage for how the dog will respond to other commands. The dog’s head should never be looking to the left. If the dog is doing so, respond with a quick correction to the right while repeating the heel command. Appraisal is always given when the dog responds to the first command given.
