Fun retrieve

Retrieve

Teaching dog's to retrieve again lots of different ways

Here's an idea of one
Have your dog at one end of a corridor or hallway facing one end of it but only a couple of steps from it
Get toy toss it to the end your facing dog gets it turns to you and you can show it another toy, dog drops first near you and you toss second toy you now can repeat slowly moving further back till you can stand at one end of hallway throw toy dog gets it runs back and you throw second

There's more to this particular method but this gives you an idea of the beginning of one method

No pulling on lead

There's lots of ways to teach every exercise
Every dog is different this is just one of many ways to teach your dog to walk without pulling
First have a motivated dog
As for equipment I personally don't think it really matters if it's a collar or a harness
A harness makes it more comfortable for a dog to pull.

Find a quite boring place with dog on lead take a step back when dog follows the one pace reward, repeat a number of times make it fun and exciting to follow you .
Have frequent breaks don't train for too long, get dog to follow back again a number of times and reward each pace.
Now repeat what you have been doing but this time sideways away from the dog.
So now dog moves with you as you move back and sideways well done 👍

Now try adding a command just before you move back or sideways eg let's go then move dog follows and reward, now try saying let's go and move a pace forward dog follows and then reward look your dog's haven't pulled

What we are doing is teaching dog's to follow you and stop automatically when you do and to enjoy being with you

This is just the beginning I will put a bit more information about this next week 👍😊

Build a dog training program in Manchester

The home of the BUILD A DOG PROGRAM
We came up with the idea of the build a dog program to simplify dog training and hopefully make it easier for dog's and  owners / handlers of pet dogs, specialist dog's and competitive dog's

The way it works is you tell us what you want your dog's to do and we try where possible help you to teach your dog

We try to avoid things that you don't need eg
If you go to some trainers they sometimes tell you what excercises your dog's are going to learn like teaching your dog's to stand or stand stay or teaching a pet dog competitive heeling
When a pet owner doesn't want their dog's doing that so we talk to the owner/handlers find out what exactly they need and work only on that

Recall problems

Lots of reasons why

Lots of ways to teach

One idea teach dog to touch your hand with nose or paw

If you teach paw or to touch with its nose its normally near /close to you

So if you teach paw / nose and it's a short distance from you it has to come to you to do what you taught it

So what did it do yes it touched you but it also came to you so it recalled !!!

More training ideas on our blog regularly follow us to see more
If you want more information about what we offer feel free to contact us

Please remember not all methods work for all dog's

Pulling on lead

Do the below in a distraction free place

Why does it happen ? Lot's of reasons they walk quicker,they want to get to park,want to smell something, want to get to a dog there's loads of reasons

How do you start to correct it
Firstly without any interest in rewards it makes it harder so working on this will be a good idea

Then step out of the door and reward the dog outside of the house
Come back in and repeat over time the dog thinks when my owners go outside with me good things happen so the dog is looking at you instead of ahead of you


Walk off with the dog saying let's go or whatever you want if dog is still with you reward

Watch for the dog going slightly forward and turn quickly in the opposite direction when dog catches up with you reward while dog is next to you

anytime dog goes forward repeat above

Repeat this occasionally turning quick in opposite direction even when dog is with you

This is just one of many ways to teach it's a very basic idea

Don't train your dog's with the mindset of I say you do this leads to a breakdown of the relationship between you and your dog's

Because when your dog's don't do what you want you become disheartened and anoyed this in some cases is put on to your dog's

MAKE TRAINING FUN !!!!!

Manchester dog trainers

A few more things we do whilst training

Train for short periods of time

End training before dog is tired or bored

Where appropriate use excitement to encourage dog

Link lower level rewards with higher level rewards so the lower have more meaning

Choose rewards to suit what you are teaching eg a difficult task a more important reward

Train in quite boring places to begin with

Be fun not boring

Break exercises down into small pieces
