Family Dog’s and Puppy Introductions – Episode 2
November 21, 2011 by admin
Filed under Youtube Puppies
www.pamsdogacademy.com This is a 7 part series on how I introduced our Labor Day House Guest Blue (a 11 week old Border Collie) to my current family dog’s (Isabelle, Bandit & Twix). The introductions took a few hours, but it was worth it as we had an amazing weekend together. There are many ways to train dogs to get along, but I happen to think that my way is the best. I reward calm behavior, introduce slowly, positively interrupt unwanted behaviors, and reward all behaviors that I like and want the dogs to repeat. It really is simple and does not take much time at all. It is sort of like teaching. If you start the year off right and train the students to do the procedures and teach them how things are done, then the entire school year runs smooth. Same with the dogs, if I teach them how I want them to behave by reinforcing good behaviors that I like, the inter-relationship between all the dogs is a positive one and everything runs smooth.
Being a full time teacher, I like to relate a lot of what I do with dogs to humans and visa versa. I am not saying that dogs are like humans, but when training and getting behaviors to be repeated, dogs and humans are very similar.
Have a great week! Pam, Isabelle, Bandit, Twix & Blue

Puppies chasing chickens: Dog Training
November 20, 2011 by admin
Filed under Youtube Puppies
www.pamsdogacademy.com The other day we worked with Blue on learning how to be calm around the family chickens. He was running back and forth chasing chickens and looking for chickens when I arrived. Now he is calmly hanging out with them. This is the same thing that I do with my dogs or clients dogs that like to chase cats. Prevention is key! When the dog is reinforced for the proper behavior the dog is more likely to repeat that behavior. Because chasing chickens, cats or other things is highly reinforcing YOU MUST have a plan, a GREAT REWARD, a leash to prevent failure, and set the dog up to succeed. We were able to start really close to the chickens, but if the puppy was not able to be calm, then I would have moved the puppy further away until he was below his threshold. There was only one time in this session that I had to interrupt Blue for staring at the chicken and doing his herding stocking behavior. Have a great Day! Pam, Isabelle, Bandit & Twix

How to train any puppy!!!
October 24, 2011 by admin
Filed under Youtube Puppies
In this video, I address some of the most popular questions regarding puppy training. When should you start training a puppy? How do you teach a dog to want to be obedient? How to establish good habits, eliminate behavior problems and some house-training basics. The key is to set your dog up to be successful without even giving them a chance to do the wrong thing. Puppies are curious and energetic which combined, may cause them to learn inappropriate behaviors. But if we actively supervise them and manage the environment, then they will quickly develop into well mannered members of your family. A positive attitude is the most significant tool when bonding with a puppy. By adding or removing positive reinforcement (whether it is attention, or food) we can effectively curb, guide & nurture behavior. Thanks for watching & subscribing! ***New video will be up later this week!***
