The Art Of Attention In Dog Training

November 4, 2016 By Duke Ferguson Leave a Comment

What is “The Art Of Attention” In Dog Training?

Although we often show how much attention you can get from your dog in any distraction, the art of attention  is way more than just having the dog look at you.

See the video below to learn more information on what it is.

Attention Training a Fear Aggressive Dog With E – Collar and Food

March 5, 2016 By Duke Ferguson Leave a Comment

This video is “Jam Packed” with great information on training a fear aggressive dog with e-collar and food.

You will see the things we will teach our clients in the early stages of training their dog including dogs with all kinds of aggression.

The video shows how we start attention training with food and markers and then transition it to the e collar.

The purpose of this video is to give  a basic example of how the “e collar”, “remote collar”, ” shock collar” can be used in a system to help in the attention training process.

The e collar is an amazing tool when used properly in a system.

Regardless of what some trainers might tell you, the e collar can be used on fear aggressive dogs.   Remember, Its a tool not a method and like all tools it can be misused.

If you are an e collar advocate and like good quality training please share this video!!  Educate!!!

Enjoy!
