PAWED supports positive reinforcement training for puppies and adult dogs. Dog training is an essential ingredient in establishing a lifelong relationship and understanding between you and your dog. It is extremely important that you participate with your dog in dog training classes! The process of you and your dog learning together increases your understanding of your canine companion, enhances your relationship and gives you a better foundation for recognizing potential behavior issues and addressing them before they become big problems. And, a good dog training class will be fun for both of you! Below is a list of dog trainers in El Dorado County who we know use only positive reinforcement methods. This is not intended as an all inclusive list, nor as an endorsement of any particular trainer.
Quick Tip: Does your dog dash out the door when it’s opened? Is he so excited to get outside that he runs you down? To keep you dog from bolting out the door, make a habit of asking him to sit and stay, or wait, before you open the door. With a leash on, hold the door open while the dog remains in a sitting position. When you are ready to let him go, give him the “OK” command and slowly walk him out the door. Once outside you can remove the leash. Practice this until your dog is reliable enough to remove the leash and sit until you give the command to go outside. Always demand a sit or wait before letting your dog out. Remember, consistency is very important!
