On a beautiful late spring afternoon, 18 years ago, three young dog enthusiasts graduated from high school. They were very much alike, these three young men.
All had been better than average students, all were personable and all – as young graduates are – were filled with ambitious dreams for the future working with their p ion… Dogs.
All three were happily married. All had two children. And all, it turned out, had gone to work in the same industry, of dog training, and were still there.
But there was a difference. One of the men was a trainer in a small department of a pet store chain. He worked mostly with treats and often turned away difficult aggression cases or requests for specialized training. He was a dog lover and refused to inflict pain on a dog, even if it meant turning his back on that dog.
The other had been known to be very rough, “old school”, and some say abusive with the dogs. He mostly worked behind closed doors, and some of the dogs that were turned away at the pet store ended up with him. Despite the fact that he was very rough, he considered himself also a dog lover and refused to turn his back on a dog even it meant inflicting pain to train or save the life of that dog.
Yet, the third trainer had followers all over the world. He managed to teach advanced training for all dogs, welcomed all aggression cases, and managed to do this without using harsh corrections or intimidation. He refused to turn his back on a dog and also would not resort to being abusive. If he couldn’t find a way… he made a way. He was very sucessful in his field.
It’s not that one trainer is a more humane person than the other. As a person’s opinion of what a humane choice for the dog is may differ.
And that is why I am writing to you and to people like you about SelfHelpDogTraining.com. For that is the whole purpose of this website: To give its users knowledge – knowledge that they can apply to any dog training situation.
You see, SelfHelpDogTraining.com is a unique website. It’s the world’s only source for instruction on "foundation style" dog training. You can’t find this style at a University, in a book, or in its complete format anywhere else on the World Wide Web. This is a systematic approach to use as a comp in ANY dog behavior problem or dog training plan. It is the preferred style of a growing number of successful modern dog trainers.
Additionally, the website’s pages are monitored and updated weekly to reflect the most current changes and additions to the dog training standard. Also, information of interest and significance to dog-minded people, and those with a special interest in dog rescue are posted on the site and delivered to you. Not just obedience and behavior problems, but anything and everything in the whole, fast-moving world of the dog training and dog rescue industry… SelfHelpDogTraining.com gives you all the dog training insight and solutions you need – when you want to be on top of what you are p ionate about.
Right now, I am reading the “Foundation Style” troubleshooting chart. It easily shows me what went wrong with a dog’s past dog training plan. All the major areas are covered: separation anxiety, housebreaking, obedience, aggression, and more.
There is video after video demonstrating how to humanely train a dog to off-leash control reliably. It is the exact standard that has been used to train the obedience of all the personal protection dogs and aggression rehab/management cases in K9-1 Specialized Dog Training’s facility. Learn how to use all the major dog training collars and equipment the right way – humanely, without causing pain, and unnecessary stress. Watch how to get bomb proof control with soft commands and a gentle method. Working dogs, fearful dogs, aggression cases, even undomesticated canines – this method has worked on all of them.
A blog, a forum, and a website all working together to keep you informed on new and hard to find training techniques, information, and tricks of the trade. If you have never read through SelfHelpDogTraining.com, you cannot imagine how useful it can be to you.
Much of the information that appears on the website appears nowhere else and will be the first place new information on Foundation Style Dog Training and certain advances in dog training will be published.
About those three high school students, I mentioned at the beginning of this letter. They graduated from high school together and together got started in the world of dog training. So what made their lives in dog training different?
