Dog training is the act of modifying a dog's behaviour using different techniques. It is also a learning process that enables the dog to act independently and to react to particular commands and signals. Dog training can help the dog to be wiser, respect its owner and develop affection. This method is often used for hunting and to help in domestic life. Although dog training has been around since Roman times, the goal of making dogs into pets came about in the 1950s. Today, there are many ways to train dogs including traditional training, classical training, clicker training, visual training, hunting and defence training and the natural and recall method.

Des - Dog Whisperer

Often I get asked (esp after owners have tried other services or approaches) what makes my results different to most. I believe my holistic approach along with getting people to work with nature rather than against is the key basis. I look at the whole picture of what is happening rather than just one focus. For example; an aggressive dog. To me the aggression is the end result of a cause such as anxiety, insecurity, dominance etc. The cause will be triggered by a number of factors such as style of ownership, environment, and health just to name a few. Getting the owner to look at all these areas and make changes creates overall balance. Secondly, I don't believe in the quick fix mentality. It takes time for a behaviour to develop so there is never going be a quick fix; that's just setting yourself up for issues again down the track. Showing owners a format that is lifestyle based long term is key to a successful rehabilitation. My hands on holistic approach and support within the home and local environment are the key differences as to why I get results others may not.

Good Dog Training Tips

3002 East Melbourne4.3 km from Windsor
Unlike most dog trainers, and as a dog trainer/behaviorist I work first to win the dog's mind, by showing owners how to think like a dog. All dogs require leaders; they are born with this instinctive need. With leadership applied, dog behavior changes and training the physical body becomes much easier.

Training and education to become a dog trainer

For centuries, the dog has worked alongside man to achieve a common goal (protection, herding, tracking and hunting). Training allows man to pass on the knowledge that the dog will need. It is generally based on different techniques that take into account the needs of the dog and the objectives of the training. So to train a dog well, it is necessary to acquire skills and follow training courses. In France, to become a dog handler in private security, you need to take a CAP in security prevention agent for 2 years, after following the 3rd year or 1 year in another field. For the baccalaureate level, the BP technical agent diploma is already sufficient to have access to this profession. In any case, the professional certificate of security dog agent is the officially recognised diploma. There are 5 organisations grouped together in an association to prepare this certification, such as the CNFA, the CFPA, the CFAA, the CFPS and the Maison Familiale Rurale de Mortagne au Perche. In order to become a simple dog handler, as a volunteer in the army, there is no diploma required but a CAP would already be an asset. This profession is recommended from the age of 17 and a half to 29. Before starting this job, it is preferable to be in good physical condition and have good eyesight. A love for animals, patience, availability, nervous and physical stamina are also important for admission. The job of a dog handler requires training and hours of training, which is why you need to have a good feeling for dogs and be a good listener and calm. Confidence in yourself and in the dog you are training is very important. You need to be very adaptable and flexible.

The scope of intervention of a dog handler

The dog handler can offer training courses for all breeds of dog. Dog training is generally based on training to gain control over the animal. This training focuses on modifying the dog's behaviour. During obedience training, the handler trains the dog to come, sit, walk, stay and socialise. He can teach the dog from a young age patience, obedience and then over time he will teach the dog to attack and carry an object. He is able to teach the dog to search for drugs, to jump or stop in front of an obstacle and to find someone after having taken an object that belongs to him, all depending on his speciality. In addition to this, the handler provides the animal with all the necessary care so that it is always in good health. They train the animal to work in different situations and to do tracking exercises.

Why use a dog trainer?

If a dog has just arrived in a family, it takes a lot of time and energy to make it feel like a member of the family. In order for him to adapt with them, it is advisable to hire a professional. He can organise dog training courses at home or in a dog training centre. Dog training is not only important for the safety of the family, but also for the basic training of the dog. The dog trainer knows how to take care of the animal and masters the different dog training techniques in order to pass on the learning that it needs. The dog trainer has the necessary skills to ensure that the dog is well trained and has good discipline. He can train pet dogs, small puppies, sheepdogs, show dogs, Bichon dogs and boxer dogs. In addition, the dog trainer can train the dog in different ways according to the client's wishes. He can make it very naughty, disciplined, very obedient, aggressive and very friendly. He is able to correct the dog when it does something wrong. He has the different tools and accessories for dogs (dog training collar, harness, bowl, leash, electric collar...) can take care of him by feeding him (treats, kibbles, etc.) and by taking him to a vet. Above all, hiring a dog trainer is the best way to make a dog a happy, well-behaved and respectful companion.

When should I call a dog trainer?

Some people try to train their dogs themselves, but if the owner lacks patience and experience, this can confuse the dog. Regardless of the type of dog breeds to be raised, it is necessary to turn to an expert dog trainer to teach the dog to obey, be wiser and love its owner. A handler is also needed when the dog has a new owner. The handler will do his or her best to help the dog adapt to life with its new family. They can also act as a dog warden. He can become a home dog trainer and can complete what is missing on the animal. He is also able to train the dog in a dog training centre and can walk the dog and take it to a dog event.
