What you should know about training of your dog
You have the right to put questions
A trainer may not disallow you to take a glance at your dogs
(all dogs and not only one) and be present during training. At
that you should feel at ease and do not hesitate to ask everything
occurring to you.
When a trainer shows you his educatees you should ask:
- Has someone got this dog and if positive, how old was the
dog?
- Did the dog take a training course before going to this
trainer?
- Does this dog need to be trained further from the point
of the trainer’s view?
Unfortunately, attending training courses you may not be
absolutely sure that your dog’s achievements you are observing are
the deserts of this very trainer. Indeed, it is possible that
before dealing with this man, the dog has been somehow trained. We
consider a simple analogy: a trainer drives the car that was not
constructed by him. There are a lot the trainers who are unable to
“prepare” a good dog and it is a bitter truth.
If you decide to start with a puppy then in this case when
choosing a trainer you should know the history of the dogs which a
trainer submits to your consideration. Trainers are often very
busy and have a packed schedule, so do not presume upon their
time. One hour is quite enough to understand the most essential
reasonably well. (of course if you will not be invited to stay
more).
For this period you should manage to pay attention to the
following:
- if a training ground, the equipment and the tools are
kept clean;
- if the ground is too spacious for the dogs to move along
it freely or be aside if they are not engaged in training;
- if there are all-weather shelters;
- how the dogs feel while being in the ground, you should
evaluate their behavior and mood;
- what is the food to be given to the dogs and what is the
feeding schedule (in cold weather one should feed dogs before
dark. It is forbidden to feed a dog just prior to training or
right after it.
When you’re in the training ground, please try to understand
which temper is prevailing among the dogs being trained here.
Sometimes you may see that dogs are cheerful and joyful during
training. It goes without saying that dogs vary in their natures
and temperament, however if it appears to you that fear and
shyness are dominants in their behavior it is hardly worth
bringing your future pet here. You had better keep aloof from such
places.
Do familiarize yourself with both training for obedience (general
course) and also the technique of special guard training. But keep
in mind that you can’t expect a young dog to be perfect.
Even being a beginner you will be able of course provided that you
are going to be too attentive, to understand a great deal.
Primarily turn your attention to that whether the dogs undergo
extra hard training or, on the contrary, the method to be applied
lacks supervision.
