			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Obedience dog training is so important for your dog&#8217;s life.There are many different methods that you can use.But belief me when I tell you that obedience dog training is the best thing you can do for yourself and your dog.Training your dog to be obedient can be a long and frustrating process.  All you want him to do is listen when you call him and do as he is told, can that really be that complicated?  But then when you think about it, you think about how difficult it is to teach your children to do what you say, to follow rules and obey.  Training your dog to be obedient is actually quite easy in comparison. Obedience training teaches your dog to act properly and has many benefits, for the dogs and their human companions alike. Obedience Dog training is critical in order to prevent such negative behaviors as aggression,biting,digging holes in the yard and urinate in the house and these are some reasons owner turn their dogs into the pound.It is a fact that over 85 percent of the dogs that end up in the pound are because the owner could not deal with the way their dog is acting anymore.At times some owner  become so frustrated it leads them to neglecting or abusing their dogs.This is not why you first went out and found a dog to bring home.These are some reasons owner turn their dogs into the pound.And when a dog is unruly ,no one wants to take them home and we all know what that means for a dog the no one wants.Very sad indeed.It seems to be a widely-held school of though that a well trained dog is a happy dog and of course, you are a happier person when your dog listens to you. There is help for those owners and dogs to live a happy,long life together.Obedience dog training is the way to teach your dog all the right things you want him to do.And it is easier than you may think.With the proper obedience dog training,your dog will learn to be respectful of your house by not urinating, respect your children and or your friends, by not jumping all over them.Earning your dog&#8217;s respect is the first crucial step in effective dog training, and it will lay the groundwork for all succeeding training.There are many reasons to train a dog properly.  A calm and well-mannered dog is pleasant to be near, both for the dog&#8217;s family, and other people he might encounter.There is nothing better than having a well trained dog. <br/><br/></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img style="float:left;margin: 0 20px 10px 0;" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3076/3120368915_82a1127005_m.jpg" width="160" /><br />
Dogs play an interesting role in our society these days. Dog obedience training is now expected of our furry friends. They live in our houses, walk our sidewalks beside us, play with our children in the front yard and visit their doggie buddies at the dog park. They are expected to be on their best behavior at all times. This is a lot to ask of an animal! <br/><br/>Many years ago, dogs held a different role. Most likely, our parents grew up with dogs who didn’t know what a leash was! There was always the scary dog who lived in the neighborhood and children knew to petal quickly by that house on their bicycle! Dogs may have lived outside &#8211; all the time. Tell that to today’s dog who attends doggie daycare 3 times a week and wears designer collars! <br/><br/>Today, the role dogs play in our lives and societies has changed (that scary dog in the neighborhood is no longer accepted as “just being a dog”, now the owner would have to deal with neighbor complaints, city fines and legal issues if the dog ever bit someone). It is the dog owner’s responsibility to make sure their pup has the skills to be a good fit in our homes and communities. <br/><br/>Situations Where You Want Good Dog Behavior <br/><br/>There are some activities that you and your dog participate in where having a certain level of dog obedience training is not only convenient, but expected. Such situations are: <br/><br/>Daily life; walking a dog, having him or her in your house, interacting with family members and people who come over to your house. <br/><br/>Competition sports such as: agility, dog shows and flyball. <br/><br/>Volunteer programs such as visiting nursing homes, hospitals or schools. <br/><br/>Emergency situations, such as when outside and the dog’s collar comes off or their leash breaks or gets dropped. <br/><br/>Why Getting Obedience Is Sometimes Difficult <br/><br/>The primary reason dogs and people misunderstand each other or have trouble communicating is because we are two very different species and we do not speak the same language. The one thing we do have in our favor, however, is that we both seem to have an affinity for each other. Basing our relationship on the fact that we enjoy each other’s company means that we need to find an effective way to “talk” to each other. Because we are the people in the relationship (unless of course your dog can read and is the one reading this!) it is OUR responsibility to ensure we are being clear when we communicate with our dogs. <br/><br/>Before starting out dog obedience training, it is important that we recognize the difficulty involved in this for our dogs. <br/><br/>easons why training may be difficult for our dogs: <br/><br/>They are trying to read us and figure us out. As a human, we can make their job a little easier by being as consistent and clear in our instruction as possible. Reward good behavior, ignore or redirect incorrect behavior. <br/><br/>Dogs are under exercised and under stimulated. Asking a puppy, who has been in their kennel for a few hours while you were at work, to be calm once they are let out is an impossible task for them. It is not physically possible for the dog, therefore we can not expect it. If we want a calm dog, we need to give them exercise and energy outlets. <br/><br/>They may never have been taught training. Dogs become more savvy to training the more practice they get. Be patient with a dog who is a novice. If your training is clear, your dog will make progress. <br/><br/>Dogs do have minds of their own and we have to respect and understand that. If a dog is showing signs that training is difficult for them, analyze what may be the cause. Sometimes the dog is in physical discomfort; therefore the “sit” behavior may hurt them. Other times there are distractions such as kids, good smells, or other dogs. Imagine if you were trying to concentrate on your teacher, but someone kept waving a piece of chocolate cake or plane tickets to Hawaii in your face&#8230; it would be hard to remain focused on the teacher! <br/><br/>Every dog can learn. It is up to us, as the human who has specific expectations of our dog’s behavior, to help them understand what we want. We need to be patient, clear and understanding. <br/><br/>How to Achieve Good Behavior <br/><br/>If you are having trouble with dog obedience training, you will likely find that seeking the help of a professional dog trainer not only provides some great tips and suggestions, but provides a lot of fun for you and your dog! Dog training is actually a highly developed skill that involves deep understanding and the study of psychology. Just like bankers are good with numbers and plumbers are good with pipes, dog trainers are good with dogs. It is commendable that if you don’t have the knowledge to train your dog that you seek the help of someone who does. You certainly wouldn’t try to work on your water pipes if you knew nothing about plumbing! The same goes for our dogs and the way they learn. <br/><br/>A dog trainer who uses positive training techniques will encourage their clients to utilize treats and praise when teaching the dog good behavior. Because the behaviors being learned are brand new behaviors, it is important to give the dog rewards for doing them until the behaviors are very consistent. Once the desired behaviors are known very well by the dog, the use of treats can be used intermittently. Using positive training techniques is good for our dogs, good for us as people (the traditional ways of training where we used physical force to intimidate our dogs into acting a certain way doesn’t reflect very kindly on us!) and good for the bond we share. <br/><br/>Just remember, the saying that “an old dog can’t learn new tricks” simply isn’t true! Every dog can learn dog obedience training that will help them become better members of our homes and societies. <br/><br/></p>
