Dog Training Techniques, the Fundamentals
We have trained our 2 hunting dogs with numerous dog training techniques. Our Vizslas Abby and Peaches hunt and are competitive in AKC sponsored events. These are the fundamentals with which we teach our dogs.
Flexibility, Consistency, Fairness or Positive attitude are all key to successful dog training.
To train any type of dog, you need a solid foundation. Apply these basics with any dog training method you use.
Remember to trust yourself and your dog while you train. The most important part of successful training is your partnership.
Flexibility - Don't just repeat what has worked in the past with another dog. Each dog is unique. Be prepared to handle each unique training situation.
Consistency - Dogs learn through repetition. If you send mixed signals or do not correct unwanted behavior every time, your dog will not learn.
Positive attitude - Like people, dogs learn best from positive experiences. Focus on rewarding desired behaviors. Avoid working with your dog when you are frustrated or upset.
Fairness - Never correct your dog out of anger. The correction will not help your dog learn. It will only damage your relationship.
Confidence - Trust yourself!! Believe in your ability to train your dog well, and you will be successful in what ever dog training techniques you use.
Know your dog - Giving dog training commands is not enough. You must also read your dog's body language and respond accordingly.
React quickly - When you give immediate praise or correction, your dog can make the connection between the behavior and the consequence. That's how dog training works. But you must be alert so you can respond quickly.
Training notes - Keep track of your progress. Note what works and what doesn't. List the dog training commands he still needs to practice. Having this information handy will be valuable as you continue learning how to train a dog better.
Enjoy training - When you and your dog have fun, training is easier and more effective. Use games and activities to practice commands and skills with your dog. Be creative and try new things so training never gets boring for either of you.
Tools - Your energy and attitude are important in dog training. But your dog training techniques must also include the right tools: leashes, collars, treats, etc. The wrong tools can make good training impossible.
Start slowly - Do not expect your dog to learn "Stay" if he does not know "Sit." Do not expect your hunting dogs to follow commands if they do not know basic obedience. Training is a gradual process. Each step builds on the previous step.
Socialization - Dog training commands are only part of obedience. You also need to socialize your dog. That means he needs positive encounters with new people, animals, and environments regularly starting as a puppy.
Environment - Start with a distraction-free environment. You want the dogs to focus on you. As your dogs improve, train in new environments and with more distractions.
Health - Your dog must be in good health during training. Make sure to feed him a high-quality diet, low in artificial products and fillers.
Breaks - Don't push yourself or your dog too hard during training. Take time for a rest. Sit down together for a drink of water. Play a game of fetch. Go for a swim. Remember to enjoy your dog not just train your dog.

There is a new litter training system by Purina for dogs. Has anyone used this and recommends if this works?
I have not used it, but anything Purina does is usually pretty effective. They test their methods extensively, as they do all of their flavors of dog and cat food. They wouldn't release any ideas/products to the public without being sure of the success...
You can still take your dog outside! But this can be used for those times you arent at home to LET the dog out... Bad pet owners stem from not caring.... As long as you care, and you train your dog in an appropriate manor, you are a good pet owner.

Premier MannersMinder Remote Reward Dog Training System $149.5 Premier MannersMinder Remote Reward Dog Training System is an incredibly useful dog training aid for all dog owners with innovative and unique design. This new remote dog training aid lets you control your pet's behavior using obedience commands issued by a hand-held remote. MannersMinder Remote Reward Dog Training System reward your dog's good behavior instantly by remote control, and it automatically feeds a treat every few minutes while you are gone. You can always combine your dog's favorite treats with this remote reward training system.The MannersMinder System includes: Hand-held remote that can operate on 4 separate channels, and which allows you to work from a distance of up to 100 ft and even through walls. Target training wand with detachable base to teach tricks, heeling, and jumping. Two treat dispenser disks for different sized kibble or treats of uniform small sizes. Dr. Yin's illustrated training manual and DVD. Rugged, dog-proof housing measures 16 x 7 x 8 inches; it weighs 3.5 lbs. and is remarkably stable. A standard outlet with the included AC adapter; alternatively, it will run for about four months on 4 D batteries. The remote control runs on an included 23A-12V battery.How MannersMinder Remote Reward Training System Works: Manners Minder replaces the pet's old bowl, holding and dispensing your dog's kibble. Food can be dispensed by remote control (which sounds an audible tone) or automatically in programmed intervals (e.g., later in the program when your dog's desired behavior is to stay quietly in one place). You'll learn to use Manners Minder's "tone and treat" techniques along with visual cues and verbal cues so your dog will clearly understand the good behavior you want. |

The Buddy System, Small Dog $18.45 Here is a hands free leash system done very well. The Buddy System uses a belt around your waist with an adjustable leash attached. The leash is adjustable from 22" to 40" (small dog system is 33" to 60") and it uses a detachable swivel hook. Quick release clips make it easy to disconnect the leash from your belt or attach the unused end (when your dog is off playing) to the belt so you don't have to carry a leash. Great for walking, jogging, hiking, or training a new puppy. Wonderful for total management of that new puppy or rescue dog so you won't have any accidents in the house or have bad habits begin. And hands free training! The Reflective Buddy System adds a strip of reflective material to the leash and the outside of the belt. At its shortest length the reflective strip covers both sides of the leash. You'll really be noticed! Accessories -- The Extra Buddy adds a second leash so you can bring another dog along. -- The Extend-a-Buddy adds more length to the leash, 18"-36" more. -- The Lunge Buster adds a "shock absorber" to the system. The Lunge Buster absorbs the shock from tugging, sudden stops, or the occasional lure of a taunting squirrel. The small dog lunge buster is 12.5 inches long and 18.5 inches long stretched out. The large dog lunge buster is 14.5 inches long and 20 inches long stretched out. Sizing Belt Leash Width Color Approximations Regular 22"-40" 22"-40" 1" X-Large 33"-60" 22"-40" 1" Small Dog Version 27"-50" 33"-60" 3/4" |
