Hey Ding Ding! Negative Reinforcement In Dog Training And The Real World

October 29, 2016 By Duke Ferguson Leave a Comment

Hey Ding Ding! Negative Reinforcement In Dog Training And The Real World I have seen trainers and some people  bash negative reinforcement and even get in to emotional fights with people about it. When I ask them if they even know what it is they say, "Well...ummm... its inhumane treatment of dogs.  This ignorance literally makes me want to throw up! It has to stop! People are being lied to about training and tools. For some strange reason, they believe that the only thing in dog training … [Read more...] about Hey Ding Ding!

Why I Became a Dog Trainer with

March 18, 2016 By Camellia Saunderson Leave a Comment

Why I Became a Dog Trainer I never dreamed of being a dog trainer, in fact, it was never something I even considered until the day I decided to become one. So what lead me to that point?

Do Dogs Forget Obedience They Have Learned?

February 27, 2016 By Duke Ferguson Leave a Comment

Once in a while I hear people say, " I did obedience with my dog but he forgets it all now".  This is a statement that makes me shake my head. I don't believe this to be true. I believe if you train your dog to fully understand a name to a behaviour then they don't completely forget it. Over time, like us, if you don't use it you loose it.  They will get sloppy and they will refuse BUT They don't completely forget it. Watch the video of Duke Ferguson working with his dog Nitro after a … [Read more...] about Do Dogs Forget Obedience They Have Learned?

Feeding Time is Training Time – Step One

January 24, 2016 By Guy Lapierre Leave a Comment

This is how my puppy, River, eats every piece of food she gets. Feeding time is training time. My dogs work for a living. This provides some of the mental stimulation they need and when combined with physical exercise most of the behaviour problems we see simply go away or are severely diminished. This is how I instruct all of my clients in the program to go about it. Some do and some don't and it is very easy to spot the difference in the dogs as a result. It isn't that you can't get … [Read more...] about Feeding Time is Training Time – Step One
