Check out Zane.He’s the Boxer that came with a social component disconnect in his behavior towards other dogs!He’d see a dog and lunge.Not to mention he gets easily distracted!
Through exercise and working with understanding clearly what action goes with what word, like sit, come, let’s go, heal, down, and stay; he’s now doing great in distraction as well as he can walk past another dog and stay on task.
Zane is a dog with huge energy so the added exercise has really taken the edge off for him.It helps his concentration level to a degree that would be hard to attain without it.K9 Coach recommends exercise for any dog and well as for the owner.It’s super good for both parties but there are times where a dog has soooo much energy there is no way the owner will get out that much with him.
The answer.
A treadmill.Zane has learned to walk on a treadmill with no leash, no collar or anything in a just a short couple of days.He actually has spring in his step and enjoys it.Keep in mind that this does not replace outdoor exercise.Part of the daily training for any dog should be outdoor activity; the walk, the jog, the run with his owner.It’s a time that training really sets in.It’s a time of bonding on a daily basis.
Dog training is really about spending quality time with your dog.It’s about providing that direction that allows you to be the leader.Your dog will only be more loyal for the chance to have a lifelong position and job with you!
Dog Training Camps in San Diego and Temecula, CA provide that private instruction that will last a lifetime.K9 Coach specializes in training the high energy, wild child dog.Solving that love/hate relationship for an owner is a huge satisfaction for everyone involved.
The difference in the dog that walks beside you, who comes when called when off leash and sits when meeting new people from the wild out of control dog gives that joy in the relationship everyone desires!Even your dog!
Correct use of the training leash is important, not only during training sessions, but at all times. Always having a loop over your thumb and your hand closed into a fist, prevents even the strongest dog from unexpectedly jerking the leash through your fingers and breaking free. Whether it’s the hand-loop or a loop formed by marrying the leash over your thumb, the result is the same. Pulling on the leash merely causes your grip to tighten
