by: Brett Fogle
No one knows your dog better than you, and as such you will find your
dog has ways of telling you, it's time to play. This can occur by him bringing
you the collar you use while training or he may run back and forth to the
front dog around training time.
Different times of the day and evening, We find it's best to Practice
commands at different times of the day and evening as your dog gets better
and more adapt at learning.
The best way to motivate your dog to learn
Your dog LOVES to please you, as such when your dog does what you want
him to do praise him HEAVILY and use high tones a lot of rubbing and food
reward. This will ensure that your dog will look forward to learning Different
body positions while issuing command
Does your dog really fully understand a given command? Try giving the
command when you're in a different position than usual. For instance, if
you are sure your dog understands the command "Stand", try issuing the "Stand"
command (from a sit or down):
While you're lying down on the floor, stomach side down. While you're
on the sixth rung of a ladder. While you're one flight above or below your
dog, each of you located at the opposite ends of a staircase. Different
levels of volumes and different tones of voice
Try issuing commands to your dog in several different volumes (whisper,
quiet, moderate and loud) and different tones of voice (squeaky, in a low
voice, grumbly, singing, etc.).
Disappearing after issuing command
Give a command your dog knows well, and then go out of sight for 3 minutes.
Does your dog remain in position until you return and release him or her?

a command. Use a mirror when possible to watch your dog. Then give your
dog a "Sit-Stay" command, and then go out of site for 1 minute (i.e.: into
the next room where your dog can't see you). Then, while still out of your
dog's sight (but within hearing distance), issue a command for your dog
to "Down".
