San Diego Beaches and and a Well Trained Dog

Rasta & Puka, Lab Border Collie mixes came to K9 Coach Dog Training Camp in San Diego with very sweet dispositions but not able to contain themselves about anything! Sitting & staying; impossible. Walking on a leash; yikes shoulder surgery might be required. Barking at any little noise in the back yard; neighbors were pissed off!

Wow, what a difference after coming to K9 Coach Dog Training Camp! They’ve been around Encinitas, Carlsbad, Cardiff, & Del Mar’s finest dog friendly places and are well mannered. Walking on a leash without pulling makes a huge difference in taking any dog out, let alone two at a time. Sitting in distraction, not jumping on people when they get greeted, it’s all what everyone wishes for their dog.

Most of us get a dog with the idea that Lassie is going to arrive, and find out, oh my, I guess Lassie had a lot of dog training to get where she was! She didn’t just show up in the movies that way.

Dog training is really about taking the time to not only communicate in a way a dog understands; more in pictures than logic, but also following through with showing them what to do repeatedly until they just know it.

“We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.”
~Aristotle~

Rasta & Puka have gone home and their family was very excited about their new found knowledge. Yes a dog can actually learn if taught in the way that they clearly see the picture of what they are supposed to be doing!

The family will have great fun with two sweet dogs that need exercise, discipline and then get affection. K9 Coach Dog Training of San Diego & Temecula believes strongly in that formula.
