Improving The Behaviors Of Your Pet Through Dog Obedience Classes San Antonio Has To Offer

By Marci Nielsen


Having social pets, such as puppies, makes the environment of your home more relaxing and exciting especially in the evening after work. In fact, some people even look forward to morning just to wave at their pets and bid them goodbye. The kind of loyalty, intelligence and love expressed by pets keep their owners smile brighter all day long. However, some people develop a negative attitude towards aggressive pets that attack and bite strangers and those that soil their house. They fail to understand that training makes the difference between well and ill-behaved pets. Enrolling your pet for dog obedience classes San Antonio has to offer helps him to learn different things as explained below.

Introduction to simple cues such as come, sit, go and others is the first step in basic pet training. To communicate with your canine, they need to know what you are trying to prompt them do. The trainers teach the puppies by modeling the behavior that is supposed to be followed by each of the instructions. By the end of the day, your puppy will be conditioned to respond in a certain way to certain cues.

Simple cues such as come, go, sit among others are the basics when it comes to communicating with your canine. For little puppies, it can be confusing when they receive these orders and do not know what behavior is supposed to be elicited after the cue. The trainers know how to use conditional training. They match the order or cue with the modeled behavior. They repeat the same so many times that the canines internalize the behavior.

Another thing that the pet needs to learn early on is loose leash walking. As much as every pet owner would like to have that extraordinary pet that walks leash free and behaves well regardless, the reality is that this follows a lot of training. Also, your pets safety is more assured when you have it on a leash than when you do not.

Leash walking is a skill that will be important to your canine, especially when you need to take him for errands or on a walk. The trainers will gently introduce the leash to the pet, and use positive reinforcement to help them learn how to follow the tightening of the leash and related orders. Leash training is pivotal because your pet is safer with a leash than without.

The trainers will introduce your pets to more complex tasks besides the simple instructions they learned in the basic and intermediate levels. Here, the trainer instructs the pet to obey complex tasks such as come and lie here, climb on my back, go to bed or even heel. In fact, your pet will no longer find such tasks complex once it is through with the training.

As you can see the classes are subdivided according to the skill level; the beginners sessions, intermediate and advanced. The advanced classes are the most complex as they cover specific skills requested by the owner according to his needs. Each stage takes about a month to six weeks.

By now you are aware of what your pet should experience during the entire training. The sessions will make your puppy more obedient, docile and manageable. These training sessions are hourly flexible, affordable and meant to meet all your needs in the most professional manner.
