Positive Dog Training Using Food?

March 9th, 2009

I have been doing a lot of research on dogs and am so far a big fan of Cesar Millan’s (calm down people, I unlike most, know that his forceful techniques seen on his show are used for dangerous, aggressive dogs, and not training). If you actually read his book, you would know that he is full of information on how dogs should be properly treated as far as exercise, discipline, and then affection. That being said I am looking up positive reinforcement dog training which often uses treats. My question is, when your dog associates a command with a treat, and then you take that treat away, and expect them to do a command, won’t they miss the treat? I understand that you are suppose to replace the treat with affection, but they are not the same thing to a dog. Can you just use affection and not treats in training?

quick tips for dog training?

March 8th, 2009

I will be dog sitting for a friend. He has 2 shepherds. Both are great dogs but the 14 month old jumps on me, does not seem to jump on anyone else. How can I keep him from jumping on me. I will be dog sitting for only 3 days so I am looking for a quick tip so that at the end of the 3 days he will be better behaved.

Dog training-aggression?

March 8th, 2009

I am having trouble enrolling my 7 month old dog into beginner dog training classes. Petsmart and a couple others don’t accept dogs with ‘dog aggression’ issues. My dog is an awesome dog but does not like other dogs at all and is cautious of new people too. I don’t know what to do now!

Does nuetering help with potty training a toy breed dog?

March 7th, 2009

My 1 year old Pomeranian has been tinkling in small amounts on the edges of the kitchen floor instead of on his dog potty. I think he’s marking. Does this stop if he gets nuetered?

Does anyone know a good website that has clicker training instructions for dog owners?

March 6th, 2009

The ones I found so far want to sell you books and CDs on the subject with no clue on some basic instructions. I plan to buy a book but want to first just get an idea if it will work with my dog. I have a clicker but just need a few free instructions on how to start. Maybe someone out there could give me some pointers on the basics of clicker training.
