Obedience Training Maintenance ” Working For A Living”

April 18, 2015 By Duke Ferguson 2 Comments

Obedience Training Maintenance ” Working For A Living” Duke when can I feed from the dish again? 

For those who know me know  I never feed from a dog dish and that I’m an advocate for making the dog work for its meals.  To me it only makes sense,  in the wild the dog must hunt for a living. Hunting is work, working the body and the  brain.  Hunting and searching is a natural instinct in the dog and if the dog does not want to hunt then it does not eat because food like rabbits and mice do not come to the dog and sacrifice them selves.

BUT

In the domestic home most  family pet dogs  get daily food for free as well as all other desired things.  The owner goes to work for a living and brings home all the dogs needs. The dog gets everything it wants and it does not have to work for anything. This is in turn creates spoiled rich kid syndrome or puts the dog in a retired millionarre frame of mind.

Who is the boss and who is the slave? LOL!

I created this video for my advanced private coaching clients and my Dog Training Genesis members… but it will be of great value to all who watch it.

Here are some tips on when you can feed from the dog dish again and how you should do it to maintain the dogs obedience and satisfy the dogs instincts.

Teaching Your Dog to Fetch For Fun

March 14, 2015 By Duke Ferguson Leave a Comment

This video shows how you can start teaching your dog to fetch for fun!

Fetch is a great game to play. It is one of the top activities for burning off energy and building a proper relationship.  Once your dog knows its markers and a little obedience then you can use this game as maintenance training.

Little Dogs Trained Humanely And Happily Using Remote Training Collar

November 13, 2014 By Duke Ferguson Leave a Comment

Watch how Duke Ferguson demonstrates with Louisa, a little dogs trained humanely and happily using Remote Training Collar, The Unleashed Potential Way!

Meet Louisa!! A little dog. She is a small poodle mix. 7 months old and weighing less than 7 pounds!!

Here is a  video that shows this cute little dog experiencing the electronic training collar for the first time ever!! Watch her response!!

Check this out!

Since Louisa is a young pup, she was previously trained with positive reinforcement only. She was off to a great start but her recall needed alot of improvement. Even if there was a little distraction or something she wanted more than the treat, she would not come when called. One day she decided to not come when called and ran off to the road…. We all know what happens to dogs on the road. Needless to say, this worried her owners enough to look for a way to correct this behaviour before Louisa got hurt. Her owners spoke with Duke.

This video proves all the hype about ” e collars” “shock collars” “remote training collars” being inhumane dead wrong! When used properly, they are a valuable training tool.

Does your dog not come when you call it? Do you want help? No matter the size, sex, age or breed We Can Help!
