3. Why We Wrote This Book If youre reading this E-Book, you
have probably watched my dog, Naraku in action. Every time I take
Naraku into public places and she trots up carrying her own leash,
people are dumb founded. People tend to be more shocked when I'm
having them over and she casually brings her bed and blankets into
the room and makes her bed to lay down. By the time I show them how
many commands she knows, people are convinced that she is either an
alien dog or part human. How the heck do you teach your dog to do
all this stuff? I can't even get mine to sit! We decided to share 7
basic guidelines that will help you bond with your dog and
understand how to better communicate. All dogs want to please their
human. Its up to us, as caretakers, to teach the dog how to make us
happy and lead a fulfilling life. This eBook is very simple, but
its also powerful. We could write a whole eBook on each one of
these topics, and we probably will, but for now well keep it short
and to the point.
4. Day 1 Deconstructing the Walk There is a lot of
misconception around dog walking. Let me make this very clear, it
is mandatory to walk your dog. You can make all the excuses you
want, but it is mandatory! The three biggest reasons are: It
establishes trust in your leadership It creates a bond between you
and your dog It establishes you as the leader When you walk your
dog, and do it properly, it establishes trust from your dog. If you
dont allow your dog to pull, tug or lead the walk, you are telling
the dog that youre in charge and the dog will respect you. It is
harder to gain the trust of some dogs, especially strong willed
breeds, but they will always come around if youre patient and
consistent. This also creates a bond between you and your dog. This
will be necessary for difficult training sessions and all other
aspects of creating a well behaved dog.
5. Day 2 Sit (The Right Way!) Tell me if youve seen this
before: Someone says to their dog sit, sit, sit, sit, on the fourth
sit the dog finally sits so the owner claps and says good job! Dogs
dont really understand language. They understand tone, sounds and
repetition. If you tell a dog to sit four times in a row and then
reward them on the fourth command, they get confused and
frustrated. You basically just told them that sitting on the fourth
sit is the desired outcome. So guess what? Next time you tell them
to sit, theyre going to wait for the fourth command before they
sit! Youll be frustrated because your dog isnt listening and your
dog will be frustrated because they thought they were doing what
you asked. Here is my advice, if you give a command to your dog,
and they dont obey immediately walk away. You may have to do this
10 times before you catch them performing the command right away,
but as soon as they do it, GO NUTS! Make it memorable. If you only
give a command once they will begin to obey right away. It also
helps to do this training after a walk with a treat in hand.
6. Day 3 Break These Rules at Your Own Risk Now you must be
thinking ... What rules are they talking about? Here is the fun
part; you get to make them up for yourself. Make up a set of rules
for your dog and your household. Dont get on the couch. No jumping
on guests. Make the rules whatever you want or need. Once you make
them, DO NOT EVER BREAK THEM. Dogs need a set of rules to feel
balanced and secure. If you tell them one week hey you're not
allowed on the bed! but then you let them on the bed, they question
the validity of that rule and test the validity of all the other
rules. I hear a lot of people say Oh its just this once. Dogs dont
think that way. They are pack animals and in the wild they are
constantly trying to figure out their role in the pack. Once you
let them up on the bed, they see it as a promotion in rank. They
are now allowed on the bed if they beg hard enough or whine loud
enough. When you get mad at them and think they are misbehaving,
they get frustrated and dont understand. This harms your bond and
causes distress. The human never realized it was all their fault
for breaking the rule just this one time. If the rule was never
broken, the dog wouldnt even consider it a possibilityto break and
would have no stress around the issue.
7. Day 4 Tricks to Blow Your Friends Minds We will write
another E-Book to teach the how to for the top 7 mind blowing
tricks, but for now I will give you some rules to live by when
trying to teach your dog difficult tricks. Always do tough training
after a long walk. If you try to train your dog after they have
been cooped up in the house all day, youre going to have a bad
time. If you pull out their favorite treat after a long exhausting
and hunger inducing walk you can get them to do whatever you want.
Another very important point is to be in tune with your dog. If you
see that they are getting frustrated, stop forcing it. You will
make much more progress if you stop the training and come back to
it later. If you do succeed in teaching your dog a difficult trick,
use it sparingly. If you ask your dog to do it all the time, they
will start to resent the trick. Don't overdo it.
8. Day 5 Always Be the Alpha Dog Always being the alpha dog
doesnt mean smacking your dog or punishing it relentlessly. In fact
that is detrimental (and downright abusive). Being the alpha dog
means being confident, fair and consistent. Tell your dog to sit in
a forceful but calm manner. Dont ask your dog to sit. Tell your dog
to sit in a tone similar to a bark. Thats what dogs understand. Use
a tone that they will respect and just say it once! Being the alpha
dog also means being even. If you had a bad day, dont come home and
take it out on the dog. To be a good leader, which is what the
alpha dog is in a pack, you must be an even tempered leader. Being
the alpha dog doesnt mean you make your dog show his belly or
submit to you whenever you feel the need to show dominance. It
means being confident in your role as Alpha.
9. Day 6 The Carrot vs. The Stick Ever hear the saying you can
catch more flies with honey than vinegar? This goes for dog
training too. If you constantly reprimand your dog they will start
to do things to get that attention. If the only time you interact
with your dog is when youre yelling at them, they will do things so
you yell at them. If, however, you give them attention for the
positive things they do and ignore the bad things, they will seek
to get attention through doing good things. Go nuts when they
behave and ignore when they are brats. Its that easy. The point is
that positive reinforcement is the best way to get your dog to do
what you want. Punishment doesnt work well, especially with strong
willed dogs. If you give a dog praise when it does something right
it gains confidence and wants to continue to please you. This
causes even more confidence and more incentive to please you which
continues to compound and ultimately reaches the point where your
dog is performing mind blowing tricks.
10. Day 7 The Key to Unlocking Your Dogs Full Potential The key
to unlocking your dogs full potential is CONSISTENCY! Dogs love
routines. They get into a groove and feel a sense of security when
they know what to expect. If you woke up every day, took your dog
for a walk and then did a 15 minute training session, your dog
would look forward to it and know whats expected of him/her. If you
set a rule that your dog is not allowed to be on the couch and you
never break that rule, your dog will never question it. If you are
consistent with the way you treat your dog and the routine you set,
your dog will amaze you. They will be capable of things you thought
were impossible. If you show them how to make you happy, they will
strive to make you happy. If youre always changing your mind on
what makes you happy, your dog will most likely be confused. Be
consistent and watch as your friends compliment you on what a well
behaved dog you have.
