developing markers

Markers are essential for clear communication between you as the handler, and your dog. It becomes the common language between you both which will provide clarity in all your training.
In this video, we will focus on developing reward and non-reward markers.
This is a step by step guide on how you can develop these, which includes demonstration videos and examples.

RELIABLE OBEDIENCE

This tutorial is suitable for pet, sport, and working dog owners.

You get to follow the journey of Frederick and Franklin as we focus on the different stages and progressions of training in order to develop reliable obedience. This is then demonstrated with footage of their actual training sessions learning the commands Sit, Down, and Stand.

tracking

Whether your dog is a working dog, sport dog, pet dog or show dog...you can teach them to track human trails.

A dogs' nose is more powerful than we can even imagine! So why not teach your dog a new behaviour; and in doing so, biologically fulfill them, develop your relationship, provide mental stimulation... the list goes on.

Here's a sneak peak into the step by step Tracking guide soon to be released.

PUPPY SOCIALISATION
part 1

Regardless of what your long term goals and plans are for your dog, it is your responsibility to socialise them correctly - and by socialise, I dont mean help them make lots of dogs friends…
When we talk about socialising a dog, we are referring to socialising them with the world - different environments, people, sounds etc.
This is a big responsibility as you can have a huge influence on the development of the pup, so it is crucial you understand the process to maximise success for you and your dog.
Check out this video made by OPERANT CANINE for a two part walkthrough!
The dogs used in this video are the 2 GSD’s I’ve raised and developed as seen in Developing Markers and Reliable Obedience.

COMING SOON - SHAPING BEHAVIOURS

Shaping is one of my favourite forms of teaching dogs new and unique behaviours.

When a dog learns a new behaviour through shaping, you're giving them the opportunity to discover new things, think for themselves and problem solve.
This can be a very self empowering process for your dog which can increase confidence and resilience which can carry over to all aspects of their life.

Here's a sneak peak into the Shaping Behaviours video soon to be released.
