Dog Teaching

Hey! Welcome to DogTeaching.com. Whether you have a new puppy that hasn’t yet been trained, or a mature dog that needs some obedience direction, I'm here to help you.  Not only can your dog become trained to willingly behave, but you as your dog’s owner will be trained to respond correctly to your dog’s needs and personality.  

A friendship between an owner and his dog isn’t one-sided.   It’s not you as the owner giving constant commands to your dog so he becomes a robot to your every whim.   Oh sure, your dog may obey for the moment, but because the motive will be based on fear, no bond of trust or respect is developed.   True dog Teaching is directing and guiding, along with earned praise that causes your dog to respond willingly for the sheer pleasure of pleasing you.   By teaching him through kindness and genuine caring, but leading with firm handling, your dog will learn to trust you as his leader and be anxious to obey. 

All breeds have their own unique characteristics such as size differences, nutritional needs, space requirements, coats, and temperaments.   Then, within their breed, each individual dog has his own personality, intelligence, fears, strengths, and weaknesses.   So really knowing your individual dog takes an honest and continuous effort on your part.   This website is designed to help you the dog owner focus in on the needs of your individual dog so both of you can live together in harmony and enjoy each other’s company. 

Most dogs have some form of dog behavior problems, but each of them can be overcome by a dog owner who cares enough to learn how to rise above them.   More often than not, the problem isn’t that the dog is being defiant.   The problem is that he doesn’t understand what’s expected of him.   Once his owner learns how to clearly convey that to him, he could be the most amazing dog his owner could ever ask for. 

Let me illustrate.   The owner is teaching his dog to “stay”.   He has his dog sit and he gives the command “stay”.   His dog stays.   The owner turns his back and his dog begins to follow him.   The owner returns his dog to the same spot, pets him, and repeats “stay”.   To the owner, it may seem as though he’s doing everything correct when, in actuality, he’s giving conflicting messages to his dog.   The owner needs to see it as his dog does.   When the owner turns his back, his dog fears he’s being abandoned and simply wants to be close to his owner.   Then too, when the dog is returned to the same spot, the owner pets him before giving the “stay” command again.   Now the dog is completely confused because he’s just been rewarded for leaving the spot even though he was returned to it.   It’s these types of things I intend to address so you can learn and strive for the best possible friendship you and your dog can have. 

As I build my website, I’m targeting all areas of the dog/owner relationship including obedience training such as sit, stay, down, come, etc; dog behavior problems like biting, house training, barking, chewing, bolting, etc; nutritional needs of individual breeds as they are relevant; and I’ll ask for input from readers to figure out what types of things you would like to learn about and will try my best to teach them.

Essentially, my purpose on this website is teaching dogs and owners how to understand each other. In so doing, you’ll be better equipped to have the kind of trusting and respectful relationship that both of you can be thankful for. So join me and my team, and take a moment to leave your questions and comments. We welcome them.

Average User Rating: Several of the training techniques present a refreshingly common-sense, down-to-earth approach to dog training; others require a little more effort (take dog whispering as an example) but yield some pretty dramatic results. I liked the way that more than one training technique is detailed, to allow the reader to pick and choose the techniques that best suit themselves and their individual dogs.
