DOG TRAINING ??🤔🤔🤔
Hmmm, dog training; many people interpret these words in many different ways. Some people think, "well, the dogs are trained, they should listen, right?" Well, not exactly; so let’s break it down and provide insight into it !
•
So, the dogs are trained, right? Yes! So, they will do everything I want them to do!? Umm, no.
•
These dogs are with me between 3 and 6 weeks on very strict routines that they now have learned. These dogs have learned everything they have needed to, sit, down, stay, here, heel, no (eh-eh😆) and etc. This dog that now been with me this long knows what I expect from them from day 1. They know they cannot get by with mistakes or the bad behaviors because that’s why they are there of course!
•
When owners come for pick up after that 3 or 6 week course they immediately expect there dogs to listen to them but why would they ? They have gotten by not listening to YOU until now. When owners pick up I always make sure to go over what the dog can do so they see that there dog can in fact do what they were sent here to do, but then also have the owners go over what I just showed them.
•
More times than not I always tell the owner they are gonna look at me they might not listen to you but this is when the big voice has to come out ( that mama voice😉) they need to know that YOU are gonna follow exactly what they were trained on !
•
So does this mean there gonna listen to me as soon as we go home since you showed me everything!? No.. But why not? because again there are back to there environment that they know they didn’t need to listen in so you will be harder on them then ever !
•
NOW the dogs have done the work are YOU willing to put in the work to ?
