Dottie is learning how to proof her heel command! “Proofing” as we call it just means practicing obedience around distractions that the dog might mess up in. This gives us an opportunity to show Dottie what we DON’T want, as well as get her back to doing what we DO want. If we only ever put Dottie in situations where she succeeded, how would she ever learn the difference between right and wrong? That’s why so many folks have dogs who do amazing at their obedience classes, but as soon as they get

🤣🤣 But honestly, the most powerful and effective training you can do with your dog is making a big deal of the “small stuff.” ❌Big problems = aggression, reactivity, anxiety, non-stop energy ❌Minor issues = how respectful a dog is as it’s going out a door, or coming out of the crate. How long a dog can hold a command before it’s whining and/or breaking command to do something else. How rude is a dog when it’s time to eat? Are they rushing the food bowl or howling out of excitement? ^^all “norm

We start out all of our obedience with leash and food, and as you can see Ryker fully understands what “place” means. We know dogs are ready to advance to the remote collar when they comply to the verbal command every single time under most distractions.

Whenever we show aggressive dogs, people are often stumped because the dogs don’t necessarily “look” aggressive. But there’s a lot more than growling and barking when it comes to aggression. Sometimes the signs are so subtle, they get missed. And that’s when bites occur.

As dog trainers who specialize in aggression and reactivity rehab, there’s one theme we see over and over again… And we want to set the record straight. “Reactive dogs just need to be shown that other dogs are ok” 👆 this is only half true. Yes, dogs need to learn other dogs are ok, but they don’t learn that by meeting other dogs and directly interacting with them. Reactive dogs actually need to be corrected for the act of lunging at other dogs (whether they’re friendly or not, it doesn’t matter

This is a question I get asked often at my seminars and on my podcast. “Why are dogs aggressive?” I believe that it’s as simple as they were never told not to be at the very first sign of it. Imagine your 13 week old puppy is resource guarding a bone, nipping at your hands, feet, etc...it’s easy enough to ignore at that age because “it’s just a puppy” and so much false information is being spread to new dog owners who just don’t know any better. They’re being told to redirect a nipping dog, (whi

Training doesn’t just happen during a formal session. It’s happening all day, every day, 24/7/365 Every time you allow jumping, pulling, barking, or ignoring a command…You’re reinforcing it through allowance. Because dogs do things that they find to be self rewarding. And on the flip side, every time you hold your dog accountable, demand a certain level of behavior, or follow through…You’re stacking wins. The little moments build the big results. So be intentional with everything because it all

So many folks out there are still being dragged around by their dogs, so here is a free five minute lesson on leash handling and how to teach your dog to yield to leash pressure. Dogs naturally want to resist any tension working against them (opposition reflex) so you actually have to TEACH them to do the opposite- yield to it! We do this by starting out on some very basic 180 turns into and away from the dog. Every time the dog gives into the leash we say “GOOD!” And reward with food or praise.

He’s a strong, powerful dog and we’re glad his owners got him into training. If you want to follow along for Cane's entire rehab journey, we just opened doors to a step by step video series where we document the whole training process. So you can teach your dog how to STOP this explosive behavior, too. Click the link if you're re

When it comes to training your dog for the real world— you cannot discount the proofing process. Many folks have dogs who listen when the conditions are right. Inside. In the yard. But what happens when you’re out in the world and unexpected distraction pops up? Are you and your dog prepared? Of course you can’t proof every single thing your dog will encounter in its lifetime, but you CAN make your obedience count by working your dog in higher stress environments. It all generalizes.

The missing piece from most “reactive dog” training programs? Punishment. Actually teaching a dog to STOP an unwanted behavior. It’s typically a split second, and it doesn’t ruin the dogs life. It just teaches them what not to do. But for some reason— if you so much as give your dog a poke in the side you are considered a terrible person who shouldn’t own a dog lol. Meanwhile, dogs are being surrender and put down due to this behavior which can easily be stopped. Usually in one session or two. W

We’re not revolving our lives around training him. We are just using effective methods and making his sessions COUNT. We have consistency with him, so he’s never getting mixed messages.

Don’t get us wrong, there are plenty of mals out there who do make great family dogs (we own one) But mals are intense dogs who require strong leadership, lots of training, and plenty of outlets for their drive.

Your dog is being strategic. They know who enforces rules and who negotiates with feelings. Dogs are opportunists and will absolutely take advantage of a handler that isn’t believable. That’s why when it comes to the dog, everyone needs to be on the same page. No different than parenting. | Solid K9 Training
