Dog training in Slough Windsor Hayes & Uxbridge
Does your dog | Or is your dog |
---|---|
• Take you for a walk? | • Anxious if you leave the house? |
• Ignore your recall? | • Afraid to get in your car? |
• Jump up at visitors? | • Possessive with toys or food? |
We can help with these hassles & many more by using incentive & distraction training.
At F.E.T.C.H., we deal with a wide range of behavioural problems from dominant puppies who nip or try to manipulate you, excitable dogs like the lead pullers, the diggers & jumpers, insecure dogs who bark at people or dogs or try to chase cars or bikes, to timid rescue dogs who are startled by their own shadow. We see your dog in its own home to take an holistic view of the environment, lifestyle and breed, all of which play a part in its behaviour.
By giving your dog the structure it needs in a family, you will have rewarding and enjoyable life with your dog giving them the balance and order they require. We can show you how both of you can live in harmony.
By focusing on motivating the dogs to want to please us rather than forcing them to obey us, we can teach them virtually anything and by ensuring the training's really enjoyable for them they'll be excited & keen to please you. Wagging tails are almost mandatory! Harsh methods & raised voices simply excite, agitate or intimidate, depending on your dog's character & so are unproductive, nor is any special equipment needed. In fact, initially we don't even use our voice as this can be distracting & agitating to both dog & owner, we simply add the words once a dog understands our body language. (It really is amazing what your dog can do without a word being spoken!)
We also cover sit, stay, recall & walking to heel, all the basic areas that will enhance your life together, as well as puppy training & rescue dog rehabilitation training. It cannot be emphasised strongly enough how beneficial rehabilitation training can be if administered at an early stage as dogs usually establish their position in the household within 14 days of entering your home!
