Why hire a dog trainer?
In most cases dog owners look at what their needs, schedule and budget is before they select a dog training service. Although these are very important it is equally important to look at your dogs needs. Two things that that you should consider:
Temperament of your dog
Do you have a dominant dog, timid dog, hyper dog?
Behaviour issues
Barking at door, Barking at strangers/other dogs, aggression, separation anxiety…etc
Here are some examples on dog training services:
Your dog is a puppy, great with other dogs and does not have a lot of “bad” issues.
In this case a puppy class might be the right thing. Socializing your dog is important but it has to be done in a controlled way; one on one dog training is also an option.
Your dog is very timid, barks at the door but runs away. He barks during walks.
This dog might need one one one training since he lacks the confidence to be with many other dogs.
Your dog jumps at anyone at the door, barks at them but is very friendly.
The issues occur at your house and thereby should be addressed there as well.
Your dog is food driven and is over weight
A Food reward program might not be the right thing for this pet.
Your dog is afraid of strangers and very timid
Training that becomes too physical with this type of dog my cause more harm. Make sure the trainer has experience with timid dogs and will not become physical.
Every family and dog is different. Make sure you understand what your dog’s needs are before you hire a dog training service. Search online but also talk to friends and family. Ask for references and talk to your local vet about what type of training is good for your dog.

The Basics of Dog Training Commands
The majority of dog owners in the world have one common problem with their dogs. They refuse to do what they are supposed to do. Some dog owners only have behavior problems with their dogs when other people are around. In most of theses homes the Dog rules the kingdom. These dogs have had no training whatsoever. What most of these dog owners do not know, is that it is the owner who really needs to be trained and not the animal. Once the owner takes charge and becomes the leader of the pack, the dog will follow in turn. Dog training commands are essential in taking charge of your dog and becoming the leader of the pack. The training of your dog is a natural bonding experience between you and your lovable friend.
The Commands
Every dog trainer will have their own list of dog training commands, but there are generally five basics on every trainers list. The first dog training command is to heel. Heeling means to have your dog stop along side of you. The second dog training command is sit. This dog training command is rather self-explanatory. The third command is down. The word, down, is used to get a dog to quit jumping up on people. Simply use the single word, down and not, get down, the dog will be more confused because he is only used to the one word, down, and get down will sound like one word to Fido. The fourth dog training command is to stay. It is always essential that your dog learns to stay sitting in one spot when told to for many obvious reasons, safety, being first and foremost. The last, but not least, of these five dog training commands is come. Come is setting your dog free and releasing him from commands.
A dog owner must realize that using your dog’s name will get his attention and this should also be rewarded in the early lessons. It is not necessary to yell at Fido, but do use a firm tone. Hand signals are another good way to teach your dog training commands as long as your dog has a successful attention span and can focus on the handler. Your dog will respect you if you stand tall and show him in your stance, that you are the authority in his world. Be strong and be firm and above all else, be consistent and your dog training commands can make your life a lot less stressful, and turn you into the King of your kingdom.
