Yespup Behavior Modification and Training

Yespup Behavior Modification and Training dogs, dog, puppy, all breeds, dog training, pet dog behavior, behaviorist, obedience, aggression, ob This makes training simple and FUN!!! Dogs love to learn.

Our training consists of obedience and behavior problem prevention and solving. While our training is eclectic, with the ability and skills to use many training methods, we usually begin our form of positive motivational, positive reinforcement techniques (a form of "clicker training" or "positive behavior shaping") which sets the dog up to succeed. We specialize in training owners to train their

dogs. Ist is our experience that a well mannered, well trained dog are trained by all members of the household. This way the family not only gains control of the dog, but also builds a solid relationship and true bonding with their "best friend." Many of our clients have families with small children. A dog must be well behaved and mannered around children or it has a higher likelihood of being given away, or abandoned. We teach dogs to respond to voice commands and hand signals! This is vital when training around young children who tend to have indistinguishable "child language". One obedience graduate said "Our dog obeys our 18 month old son so well that now our son thinks all dogs know hand signals!"

Because our methods are so simple and gentle, training can begin the moment you get your new puppy or adult dog. It's never too early or late to begin a training program. From five weeks old to fifteen+ years, ANY dog can be trained! It’s actually boredom that creates many bad habits. Behavior problems in dogs are sadly, quite common. Unfortunately, we humans learn to accept of our canine friends' flaws instead of fixing them. Just some quickly and easily solved behavior problems are:
pulling on leash
house soiling
barking
digging
destructive chewing
jumping up
play biting
escaping doorways
running away
separation anxiety & issues
shyness
stealing and "counter surfing"
general disobedience
even some forms of aggression

At Complete Canine Training we love training our clients to train their dogs. Our primary focus is to keep dogs in their homes where they can participate as loved and cared for family members. We hope that we may help you create a best friend in your new puppy or beloved older dog. We have been veterinarian recommended for nearly two decades! Give us a call and see how we can help you!

The International Association of Canine Professionals (IACP) was founded on the belief that the proper and humane use of effective training tools and techniques creates the most success for each individual dog and owner. The IACP founders built an association where all trainers are welcome, an organization that creates community, allows for collaboration, encourages education, strengthens the relationship between people and their beloved pets, and is inclusive to all tools and methods that enable dogs to lead happy and fulfilling lives.

As is the case in nearly any professional service industry, there is not unanimous agreement across the canine industry on how to best serve our four-legged friends. The IACP believes that professionalism should allow civil discussions of opposing views in the spirit of collaboration and education, keeping the needs of our clients and their dogs at the forefront. Unfortunately, there are organizations in the canine industry that seek to eliminate the use of some effective training tools by redefining Steven Lindsay’s model of Least Invasive Minimally Aversive (LIMA) to fit their organization’s goals.

The IACP recognizes that Steven Lindsay’s original LIMA model does not advocate for the elimination of training tools nor the elimination of any of the four quadrants of operant conditioning theory in dog training. To quote Steven Lindsay in his series, "Applied Dog Behavior and Training", “Despite obvious limitations and risks, aversive procedures are a necessary aspect of dog training and behavior-problem solving that cannot be neglected or substituted for (e.g., by drugs) when competent inhibitory control over highly motivated behavior is being established.” Lindsay insists on the thoughtful use of the four quadrants of operant conditioning theory, including both positive and negative punishment.

When training tools designed for humane application have been proficiently applied by professional trainers without causing undue stress, pain, or injury to dogs, those tools should not be unjustly categorized as only affecting behavior change through fear or pain. The IACP cannot, in good conscience, prohibit the use of any tools that facilitate fair and clear communication between the handler and the dog, including tools which naturally use positive punishment and negative reinforcement such as front-clipped body harnesses, head halters, prong collars, electronic collars (e-collars), martingales, and slip collars.

We believe attempting to force all dog trainers to abandon tools that can be used to effectively and humanely improve a dog’s quality of life is irresponsible, unhealthy, and unfair. Limiting the use of such tools will result in the death of countless dogs who are misunderstood, deemed uncontrollable, and eventually incompatible for human companionship. Ethical dog training can, and should, help dogs to learn to respond appropriately to the stress, pressure, and aversion that exists in the real world. There is no common sense or compassion in any movement that takes away an owner’s ability to provide eloquent, competent, and complete communication with their pet.

The IACP encourages our members to be lifelong learners. We recognize that there is always room for continued learning and growth within this industry and that there is no single training plan that works best for all dogs or all people.

We are better together. Through collaboration across methodologies, the IACP works to improve the lives of more dogs and more owners than we would if we chose to exclude or ignore entire segments of the industry and learning theory. The IACP gladly welcomes all canine professionals who strive to keep the dogs and families we impact In Safe Hands.

HELP! My puppy pees whenever I come home!
TRAINERS RESPONSE - Urinating every time he sees you could be an involuntary response called submissive urination, which is not a potty training issue. Puppies and dogs will offer a release of urine as a doggie way of saying "you're the boss and I just want you to know, that I know, you're the boss." It is more common in females and most will outgrow it post-adolescence/sexual maturity. If you want to speed the process of outgrowing it quicker, avoid punishment, train him to sit for petting and for a bit, avoid direct eye contact, touch and verbal communication upon your first seeing her. These avoidance behaviors on your part help him to feel less stressed about appeasing you. (If you were a dog, you would be honored to know he was urinating for you.) Happy Training!
