Attach the dog to a short leash two to three feet, depending on the size of your dog , and make sure he is wearing a soft leather flat collar something which will not hurt his neck when he strains against it. The idea here is to playfully throw the ball against the wall near where the dog is tied. Your dog will begin to jump and prance for the ball. As he begins to get excited, encourage him. Occasionally once or twice a session let him win by getting the ball. Drive is built through...

1. Submit, and walk away thus forfeiting his position in the pack as the Alpha dog. 2. Correct the dog who tried to correct him thus putting him in his place in other words remind him who's boss . In general, the roles and positions in the pack are so well established that it rarely comes to all out aggression. However, if the dog owner is ever going to establish a proper relationship with the dog, then it's going to be worked out over an issue such as this. And it's the job of the good dog...

How Much Is That Doggie In The Window Too Much At Any Cost A client called me earlier this week and wanted some advice about purchasing a puppy she'd seen at a local pet store. I advised her not to buy a dog from a pet store. Why For the following reasons 1.

But when you adopt a puppy from inferior breedings, you're really playing with the...

Again, this would be the type of situation where I'm already so dominant to these dogs, that I can break them up with a simple voice command of No. and they won't think of doing this again. If you can't command this type of control gets back to how skilled a dog handler you are then it'd probably be easier to place one of the dogs in another home. -- On a somewhat related note, I never allow my personal dogs to interact with random dogs that I don't know.

My Puppy Is Biting Me, What Should I do The answer to this question really depends on how old your puppy is. Many dog training books advocate the infamous Alpha roll, where you roll the puppy over and pin him on his back. Don't pin him even though the mother dog may do this WHEN she does it and HOW she does it are things that the amateur dog handler even sometimes the experienced handler will never be able to replicate properly. If the dog is really young, like 7 or 8 weeks old, you basically...

newspaper. The application for teaching your dog this exercise is exactly the same as we've done with the ball and the food and the other dog distractions. Simply place the dog in a down stay, tie the end of the leash either a 6-foot leash, or if you'd like, a 30 foot leash to a post or a tree. Remember, as long as you keep slack in the line, your dog will not know he is tied up to the tree or post. Next, go and hide behind a building or another tree someplace where the dog cannot see you.

While drive can be built with age, if you don't have any from the start, there's going to be nothing to build. I've seen eight month old puppies with the ball drive of a cat. Puppies with high ball drive are easier to introduce to new stimuli, too. If the puppy should be temporarily traumatized by something, you can usually get him over it by...
