Dog moments episode 1 is here!

We see a lot of great, funny and cute things at All Around K9, soooo we are going to start recording some moments and hope we get to showcase the character and personalities of these dogs that we are able to take in.

We don’t go from 0-100. If we did that I don’t think dogs would like us very much😅 So in order to be loved by these dogs we usually listen to Gary about what tools to use for new dogs at All Around K9 training.

So here are Gary’s 4 fundamental tools that he uses.

1. the regular, flat collar
2. martingale collar
3. choke chain
4. pinch collar

We start the dogs out with these and as they progress we will step into another world of tools.

Clicker training has an interesting name but it is very straightforward. We associate the clicker sound to a task or command by multiple reps of doing the same thing over and over and eventually the dog knows what to do when they hear the clicker.

If you have studied psychology you may have heard about Pavlov’s dog or classical conditioning. This has similarities with that. Just like Gary said in the video, the clicker sound is similar to saying goodboy (girl in this case) so you are positively reinforcing behaviors through clicking.

Pretty cool stuff to implement into training and it is a great method to teach dogs specific behaviors and comes in handy when training more difficult/complicated tasks.

Tara co-founded All Around K9 training with her husband Gary. They were already experts when it came to training dogs because of their time working with animals and dogs over the span of many years.

Tara loves problem solving, getting to the root of issues, and dealing with those issues. She doesn’t beat around the bush and she gets the job done. Building relationships between the dog, the owners and her team is something Tara specializes in.

Training some dogs is like solving a puzzle but sometimes you don’t have all the pieces. Tara finds those pieces, solves the puzzle and helps you understand it as well.

Some dogs are scared of everything, we can’t blame them. But living in fear is no way to live. So we help them overcome that fear, we also do it in unique ways…like take them on walks while riding a dirt bike 😎

While this may look like it’s just a normal walk, it is actually doing a couple of things.

1. getting them to be active
2. desensitizing them
3. building confidence

When you train your dog around different things they start to grow out of their shell and live happier lives.

Believe it or not, we did not tell these dogs to hit us with their best “blue steel”. They just have that model look naturally🫢

These moments were from a rapid training session with the team here at All Around K9 training. The majority of the dogs were amazing and struck a pose but one dog got an action shot…it shows the character of the dog a little more.🤣

Martin is a big puppy and he is gonna get even bigger…he already has some monster stomps going and we love to see it.

Martin has such a fun personality. We got to work on his confidence and coordination training and here you can see that he is coming along pretty well!

Trainer Miley was taking care of Martin and helping him find his footing. She did a great job and her encouragement helped build Martin’s confidence as he was moving through those obstacles.

DON’T JUST CLICK IT AND HOPE IT FIXES YOUR DOG.

The e-collar is a powerful tool that should be used with care. It doesn’t always get used properly but that is something we help with here at All Around K9 training. Here are some common misconceptions about the e-collar.

1. it is a fix it instantly button 🙅‍♂️
2. people get the timing wrong 🙅‍♂️
3. people get the amount of pressure wrong 🙅‍♂️

This tool doesn’t fix your dog instantly. There is a process to it and relying on this tool ONLY is not the right way to train your dog. Another thing to mention is the story of Goldilocks. There is such a thing as too early, too late, not enough pressure, too much pressure. But there is that little window of using just the right amount of pressure at the right time…you get it just right.
