and rewards are food, play and praise.
Puppy and Dog Selection Guidance
Selecting the right dog for you is a very important decision. You need
to consider your lifestyle and what type of dog is best suited for you. Dogs come in a variety of shapes, sizes, personality
types and vary considerably on the time and effort required to care for them. Some careful thought should be put into temperament,
breed, age, gender, size, physical and mental requirements, time demands, and financial obligations. The companionship and
bond will strengthen with a good match. Good Dog Consulting, Ltd can help you come to the right decision.
Puppy Training
Getting your puppy started off on the right paw is very important. Puppies go through critical stages that are crucial
for appropriate socialization and behaviour habits. Consultations would include such
topics as; puppy proofing your home, appropriate toys, housetraining, mouthing and crate
training. Training basic commands and discussing health and wellness is also
an important component in the puppy training. Positive training techniques will be used so the training is fun for everyone.
Consultations on Problem Behaviours
After a through interview and assessment, the problem behaviour will be discussed and solutions will be worked on.
Not all behaviours will disappear but there are always great ways to manage problem behaviours.
Lectures and Seminars
Have a group that wants to learn more about dogs and their behaviour? An example would be a Mom and Tots group that
wants to learn about visiting homes with dogs or having children over when you own a dog. Please email for more
information.
Dogs of all ages can learn new skills. Dogs enjoy having the mental stimulation of learning something new. Working
with your dog builds a stronger bonds and turns into a more enjoyable relationship, where the communication is clearer and
the understanding is greater.
