Dog Training for Busy Owners

It can be difficult for an owner to take their dog to manners class with a professional trainer in terms of both cost and time. In addition, hiring a trainer to come to the home can also be a hassle. For dog owners who don’t have a lot of free time, dog training videos and books tend to be the best options.
While there isn’t the same sense of receiving hands-on training with a professional, most dog training videos and books provide the same lessons and tips as the professionals. The best time to start teaching a dog is while they’re still puppies, but it’s possible to train a dog of any age. It’s important to practice patience when training because dogs will learn at a much slower pace than people, and it doesn’t make sense to get frustrated. Incentives are an important aspect of training; some dogs respond better to carrots, other to sticks.
Electronic dog training collars are effective for indicating when your dog it doing something incorrectly. Also make sure to keep ample treats on hand for rewards too. While some dogs are more intelligent than others are, all dogs can learn the basics with just a little love and effort on the behalf of their owners.
Letter from Dog Lovers to Their Dogs
Sent to me in an emai!
Dear Dogs: The dishes with the paw prints are yours and contain your food. The other dishes are mine and contain my food. Placing a paw print in the middle of my plate and food does not stake a claim for it becoming your food and dish, nor do I find that aesthetically pleasing in the slightest.
The stairway was not designed by NASCAR and is not a racetrack. Racing me to the bottom is not the object. Tripping me doesn’t help because I fall faster than you can run.
I cannot buy anything bigger than a king sized bed. I am very sorry about this. Do not think I will continue sleeping on the couch to ensure your comfort, however. Dogs and cats can actually curl up in a ball when they sleep. It is not necessary to sleep perpendicular to each other, stretched out to the fullest extent possible. I also know that sticking tails straight out and having tongues hanging out on the other end to maximize space is nothing but sarcasm.
For the last time, there is no secret exit from the bathroom! If, by some miracle, I beat you there and manage to get the door shut, it is not necessary to claw, whine, bark, try to turn the knob or get your paw under the edge in an attempt to open the door. I must exit through the same door I entered. Also, I have been using the bathroom for years -canine attendance is not required.
Finally, in fairness, dear dogs I have posted the following message on the front door:
TO ALL NON-PET OWNERS WHO VISIT AND LIKE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT OUR PETS:
(1) They live here. You don’t.
(2) If you don’t want their hair on your clothes, stay off the furniture. That’s why they call it ‘fur’-niture.
(3) I like my pets a lot better than I like most people.
(4) To you, they are animals. To me, they are adopted sons/daughters who are short, hairy, walk on all fours and don’t speak clearly.
Remember, dogs and cats are better than kids because they:
(1) eat less,
(2) don’t ask for money all the time,
(3) are easier to train,
(4) normally come when called,
(5) never ask to drive the car,
(6) don’t smoke or drink,
(7) don’t want to wear your clothes,
(8) don’t have to buy the latest fashions,
(9) don’t need a gazillion dollars for college and
(10) if they get pregnant, you can sell their children …
DOGte4k Canicom 400 Remoter Trainer
The Canicom universal Dog Training Collar weighs less than 3oz including the internal 3v lithium battery. It is totally waterproof and shockproof to withstand a normal dogs lifestyle. The strong adjustable collar fits all neck sizes 20 inches.
How does it work?
Used alongside your vocal training commands, your Canicom dog trainer assists you by transmitting a combination of beeps and electric impulses to your dog via the specially designed collar. The beauty of the system is not in its power (we recommend the minimum setting required to get attention) but in the immediacy of the command given. Corrective commands can be given immediately even though your dog is some distance away. As we all know: an immediate command is an effective command. As you progress your dog will learn to associate your trigger commands with the electric impulses. Eventually you will be able to reduce, then disable the impulses – using only the beep function. Finally you can dispense with the collar altogether. (As an alternative, a dummy collar can be used at this stage.)
The Canicom 400 is a highly featured electronic dog collar training system for controlling up to 2 dogs with a larger working range of over 400 yards.

The SportDog DSL-400 beeper locator is the smallest and lightest beeper on the market. Choose from high or low volume, three beep-duration settings and four tones. The SportDog Deluxe Beeper Locator uses a 3-volt lithium battery (Included) that provides hundreds of hours of “on” time. We even give you a battery-check function so you won’t get caught with a dead battery. Our lightweight beeper fits most 1-inch-wide collar straps, so you can put it on or take it off as needed.
The SportDog Deluxe Beeper has the following options for continuous beeping you hear when a dog is on point. When the dog is running, you have the choice of (1) silent mode; (2) 5-second beep duration; or (3) 10-second beep duration. Setting Number 4 is the battery-check.

One of the basics of dog training is that you should reward your dog every time he does what you ask of him. Positive reinforcement, when repeated over and over again, gives your dog an incentive to keep doing a desired action – sitting, staying, lying down, etc. The easiest reward and perhaps strongest incentive is food. A dog will pretty much do anything for a treat, and the promise of food is attractive enough to keep following commands.
