This is 9 month old Ruby the Labradoodle. Her biggest issue is a little bit of confusion with 4 loving family members looking after all her needs. Another enjoyable session. Before during and after the session I was impressed by the family’s understanding of trainings principles.

This is 6 year old Thunder the Staffy. Unfortunately Thunder is affected by circumstances beyond his or his family's control so we had to tweak his training to suit his environment. Once again sadly it is a case of other dog owners not taking responsibility for their own dogs. But that won't stop Thunder having a ball...or 2.

Remember when doing any training with your dog always take weather conditions into consideration. Today it was 40 degrees outside so the only training I would do would be teaching a dog to swim or in the case if Coco the training was inside. While the heat for my old mate Zeus means more walks and shorter distances.

That dog was and probably will be seriously injured or even killed. The reason why and the biggest problem in the dog training world is PERCEPTION. Too many people get dogs for the wrong reasons and perception has a lot to do with it. I have had people ignore their dogs safety and well being because they wanted their dog perceived differently. Sadly there are people out there that will also help train your dog with perception and not safety in mind and when it doesn't work out the dog in a lot of cases ends up in a rescue home. Trust me when I tell you if you are more interested in perception than safety I can guarantee it will not end well for your dog.

No matter how good your recall is your dog is not safe off leash around traffic. Not for the first time did I nearly hit a dog that ran in front of my car because the owner thought it was cool to have her dog walk off leash around traffic while she is on the phone. It is only a matter of time before that dog will be dead or seriously injured.

Hello folks if anyone is still out there. I hope you all have a happy new year. Now to training. I am back to full time training after some very difficult years. So let's start with a good example on how we inadvertently train our dogs. We must always be aware that although we sometimes think our dogs are having a timeout they are in fact still very aware of what we are saying and doing. For example the photo on the left shows my dog Zeus resting near the end of our morning walk. The photo on right shows Zeus reacting to my command of "O. K mate lets go"and as you can see that is not the reaction I want for the command. The reason for this is that the corner of rest is very busy, especially with tourists who when they see Zeus in the posture think it is a green light to pat, tummy scratch and take photos of Zeus.I haven't discouraged this because he unlike me loves the attention. So because he received what he perceived positive reinforcement for lying on his back he has associated the command "O. K. mate lets go " with what he understands as positive reinforcement. This as I said is a very good example of inadvertently training our pooches.
