> What part of the curriculum made the difference. I think the big difference is in three parts. First, they are doing the training all day. I simply don't have the time. Second, the balanced training methodology adds consequences as well as rewards. This is a far more effective methodology. It is what people use to train working K9s like attack dogs and the like. The last part is mindset. I have a working dog, granted it is a Corgi, and he wants to be working. Instead of making him "be good," I am giving him jobs throughout the day that reward him. > That, to work as a pair, you would need some amount of training as well. You would be correct. I got pretty significant training the day I took him home (about 3 hours). After that, we had a few follow hour-long ups. There they show you the commands and behaviors the dog learned, how to interpret there body language, and how to extend them at home.

Sounds great. How did you choose what kind of training to do? Also, what kind of jobs do you give to him?

  My partner at the time had lovely dog that was VERY scared of other dogs. He would become very aggressive. She ended up finding a place in southern Ohio called The balanced corner[1]. They seem to do great work. This inspired me to find a similar place near me. I went to a place in Northern Ohio called Boss K9[2]. > Also, what kind of jobs do you give to him? We try and make everything a job. Our training sessions, even place time. Sitting still for a reward is actually really hard for a dog, even tiring. So we make that time rewarded as well. This leads to a more structured life for him, which is good. If you are interested in this sort of training, I would contact Boss k9. The owner will help you find what to look for. - [1] https://www.facebook.com/haleyhowessoundhounds/ https://www.facebook.com/haleyhowessoundhounds/ (sorry, but it only looks like they have facebook?) - [2] https://www.bossk9cle.com/ https://www.bossk9cle.com/
