Foundation Style Dog Training (K9-1)

[msminnamouse]

Training not to pull by freezing the walk until the pulling stops is much better than having to rely on crutches like pinch collars. Pulling = no more walk until it stops. No pulling = reward of walk continuing. If the dog wants to continue the walk, it'll stop pulling. No pull collars and halters make sense to use to aid this training, especially with large dogs but shouldn't be needed in the long term.

@k91dogtraining hey guys, love your videos especially the one on your site's homepage the 'dominance vid' - lol

was wondering what stuff you guys have available in the members area, like if i was to sign up what kind of stuff do you have? Also is it worth a first time dog owner to get it or is it more for experienced trainers.

hello i am a dog trainer.I am fairly new at it the company i work for is fully positive reinforcement so we do have a option of our own styles as long as we are under those guidelines my question is where can i find more info on your training i live in chicago.do you have any schools in chicago?or do you have an online apprentienceship program?I too feel a trainer with only one style is limited to one form of results.

@abayarde5 I don't think you actually practice fully positive because even ignoring attention seeking behavior is a form of negative punishment. You're using the punishment of taking away a stimulus when the dog isn't behaving correctly and pairing it with the positive reward to reinforce when it does behave correctly.

[msminnamouse]

@abayarde5 Purely positive reinforcement isn't usually possible and it's certainly not always effective unless you pair it with other humane and effective training methods. I never said that dominance and fear based methods are what I consider good training, however. You should look into operant conditioning.

Tallia SE portion of Michigan there are several dog trainers who are VERY good and work with service dogs( retired police dogs) and aggression/ shelter rescue dogs.

i only wish i could find trainers like you near me in MI. i went to one trainer with my 2 year old German shepherd, and now instead of learning how to be a responsive guard dog companion, he is very scared, hyper, and nervous.... and i don't know how to undo the damage that has been done. thank you for your videos.

You guys do a really great job. I dont think i have seen a more effective training technique. To think that these dogs were from the pound and unrulyis pretty amazing.
