Mission Control: How to train the high-drive dog

Product Information

The exercises or games in the book are designed to not get your dog over excited but to enable calm learning. Jane is a member of the Professional Speaking Association (PSA) and has spoken at seminars and events all over the UK. So really the webinar is looking into the difference between a working dog ready for action, doing waiting but ready for action, and a dog relaxing, because a lot of the working dogs struggle with the relaxation aspect in life. Working gundogs, for me, when I have my dogs sat waiting to be sent for a retrieve or sat waiting to be cast out to hunt is no different than a dog waiting in the start line of agility, because they're actually waiting to do a job. In this book, you get advice on how to channel that energy into the training and behavior you want, no matter what type of training you’re interested in: gun dog work, agility, basic obedience, etc.

Obviously, trying to work with his behavior problems really sparked my interest just in dog behavior and dog training, and it went from there. So I left that lesson and never went back — not really, I suppose, because of the training, but just because I had an unpleasant experience.I'm currently working with the three dogs, training them to be working gundogs so they can go out and work in the field. I did find at times some exercises were a bit outdated - not overly so, still progressive by dog training standards - but that was slightly disappointing for me. So it's about delving into that and understanding what our expectation is, for especially young, maturing dogs, and what their capability actually is.

Our aim to provide family friendly dog training to the highest standards, providing fun, ethical and effective dog training solutions. Meet the Team Jane runs WaggaWuffins alongside her mum Barbara with a team of qualified and experienced instructors; Helen, Steven, Louise and Sara. I always think it would be fascinating to see, to MRI scan a dog that's been trained in impulse control and then a dog that hasn't, and actually see what is their differences, what are the differences, does the brain function differently.Written in a very accessible style and with enough information that it could've easily been 5 great books!
