Dog Training That Actually Works!

The Goal: Keep the Personality... Lose the Disobedience

Many people are afraid that taking their dog to a trainer will cause their dog to lose its unique personality. Good trainers can accomplish the exact opposite. In most cases, people can’t believe how much more fun their dog is after even a couple of training sessions. The reason for this is the confusion most dogs live with disappears when they know what they’re supposed to do, what the expectations are of them. 

The Method

Training a dog should NEVER involve harsh punishment, yelling, or hitting a dog. Anyone who says different doesn’t know what they’re talking about and should NOT be training dogs. True professional dog trainers use proven techniques to calmly and decisively change your dog’s behavior, for good. 

The Reasoning

Understanding the nature of your dog will go a long way toward changing behavior. Whether dogs are pack animals, or not, is currently the hot topic in the dog world. It’s been so long since domestication began that some scientist now say the pack mentality has been bred out of dogs, and they are now familial animals just like humans. We won’t debate the pack issue. What we will say though is your dog WANTS you to be his leader. 

Most dogs, when left to do whatever they choose, don’t make very good choices. But it’s not their fault, they’re just living like a dog, in a human domain. They don’t know that chewing a shoe is not good. Or that peeing on the carpet is wrong. They don’t know what they’re supposed to do, or not do in that environment, until you teach them. Obedience training is the foundation of ALL training. 

Obedience training requires repetitions. Typical trainers do a few reps with you in class, then send you home to complete the training. So, in reality, you are not paying for dog training with a traditional trainer, you’re paying for human training! You’re paying a lot of money for him to train YOU. Unfortunately, dog training is not that easy. You won’t get trained on what to look for, or the get the tips that might make training easier. Or the ques that tell you it’s probably going to be easier to train “sit” today than it will be to train “come”. 

You pay experts to repair your car, your plumbing, or to take care of your pool. Let A Crate Escape set the strongest foundation possible for your dog, then show you how to build on it.
