WHAT TO EXPECT AND WHAT WE EXPECT FROM OUR CLIENTS
At Legacy Nicely Trained Dog, our experience nearly 40 years of experience of bringing out the most in dog and handler gives us the ability to know how to motivate and teach you in a way tailored to the way the dog and you learn best. It also gives us a wealth of techniques as all teams are not the same. Our extensive and continuos study of behavioral science allows us to explain to you what is going on with the dog each step of the way and why certain things that may work for one dog don’t work for another. The combination of experience training and the depth of knowledge also allows us to use sceince to sometimes engineer a technique for you as science is always the same and once you know the goal we have the practical experience to make it happen.
What we expect from our students. The biggest thing is to trust the process. We build pets the same way we would a police dog meaning a strong foundation with lots of behaviors that need to be mastered that as they are layered on the culmination of those preliminary exercises reveal their purpose. Or as many clients have said there is a “wax on wax off” moment where it all makes sense. We also expect for the homework to be done. Just like working out once a week gets you nowhere, only working with the dog during the sessions get you and the dog not only nowhere but leades to frustration.
REMEMBER, ALL PUPPIES LEARN AT DIFFERENT RATES AND….
WHEN ALL ELSE FAILS, DO WHAT THE TRAINER SAID
SOME OF WHAT YOUR PUPPY WILL LEARN
TO RESPOND TO ITS NAME
THOUGH IT SEEMS LIKE AN EASY CONCEPT, IT CAN SOMETIMES BE HARD. ESPECIALLY GETTING THE TO COME WHEN CALLED. THE FIRST PART OF LEARNING THEORY TELLS US YOU CAN’T TEACH AN ORGANISM ANYTHING WITHOUT HAVING ITS ATTENTION FIRST
BOUNDARIES
LEARNING BOUNDARIES IS VERY IMPORTANT. TEACHING THE OWNER HOW TO PROPERLY IMPLEMENT AND MAINTAIN THOSE BOUNDARIES IS EVEN MORE PARAMOUNT FOR THE FAMILY UNIT. THEY TEACH THE PUPPY TO PLAY WITH THE FAMILY, AMONG OTHER BEHAVIORS THAT ARE NEEDED FOR SAFETY OF ALL.
PLACE
“PLACE” HAS MANY BENEFITS. IT HELPS WHEN YOU HAVE COMPANY OVER AND GIVES THE A PLACE TO RELAX OR SETTLE IF OVERSTIMULATED. SINCE NO ONE IS TO MESS WITH THE WHEN IN “PLACE, ” IT GIVES THEM A PLACE TO GO WHEN THEY WANT TO BE LEFT ALONE WHICH IS GREAT WHEN SMALL CHILDREN ARE INVOLVED.
SOCIALIZATION AND PROPER PUBLIC BEHAVIOR
