THIS IS AWESOME! My favorite dog trainer and dog whisperer of all time has just released a free video online explaining how to eliminate 94% of all unwanted behavior in ANY dog. Her name is Krista Cantrell and I absolutely LOVE the way she teaches. Click on the video to watch. You'll be glad you did...

In this video, I address some of the most popular questions regarding puppy training. When should you start training a puppy? How do you teach a dog to want to be obedient? How to establish good habits, eliminate behavior problems and some house-training basics.

The key is to set your dog up to be successful without even giving them a chance to do the wrong thing. Puppies are curious and energetic which combined, may cause them to learn inappropriate behaviors. But if we actively supervise them and manage the environment, then they will quickly develop into well mannered members of your family.

A positive attitude is the most significant tool when bonding with a puppy. By adding or removing positive reinforcement (whether it is attention, or food) we can effectively curb, guide & nurture behavior.

Thanks for watching & subscribing!

***New video will be up later this week!***

To finish up the course, we run the pups through the heeling course, stopping at stations for position changes. Moving forward, our owners need to work on phasing out the use of food lures and rewards, so that food doesnt become a crutch in training.

Heel, or loose-leash walking is a vital skill for any pet dog and Steve has a bunch of different techniques for training it. The only thing they all have in common is that they dont reinforce your dog for pulling on leash. Steve also introduces us to Smoke, a dog that barely survived Hurricane Katrina.

Dina has a dog thats learned to run away when she bends down to pick anything up, creating a real safety hazard. Its great to have a dog that loves fetch, but you dont want your dog to bolt every time they think you might throw something. Fortunately its easy to train your dog to come as a part of fetch. And to make it a little more fun, we can have them run through our legs while theyre at it. By incorporating recalls into their favorite game, youll end up with a very reliable come command.
