Dog Training – Train The
Owner
There are so many different approaches to
training your dog. I have tried several and derived benefit from
each.
This is about another interesting
approach.
I am a dog lover who came late to the
realization that I really enjoy the companionship of my dogs. It was not until I
started dating my wife and met her black cocker spaniel “spiffy: that I started
to realize how much dogs can contribute to your life. After Spiffy died, we got
a chocolate lab named “Katie” who lived until she was ten years old. Katie was
originally my stepson’s dog and we inherited her by default. It was Katie who
taught me to love dogs, especially labs.
I trained Katie by getting lessons from a
dog trainer who also trained military police dogs. We spent 5 or 6 Saturdays
doing that for an hour each time. The training was successful and Katie was well
trained enough to make us both relatively happy.
The next lab I got was also a chocolate lab
named Roux who I got when he was 3 moths old. I started with the clicker method
and progressed to my own training techniques that I had accumulated over the
years. I now use a training collar and we can walk three miles every morning
through the neighborhood and neither of us needs a leash. The training collar is
only necessary when we see a cat. I still haven’t been able to teach roux not to
chase that cat.
The most interesting approach that I have
seen recently is train the owner. I remember during my readings for training
Roux that someone said if your puppy misbehaves hit yourself with the paper and
not the dog, because that means you didn’t train him well
enough.
So here is an appropriately named course
from an experience dog trainer which tells you how to raise well trained dog
owners.
