Brighton Dog Training can help you get back in control of your dog without having to resort to any harsh or aversive training methods. If you are looking for advice on getting a dog, help with training or working on a behaviour problem then Brighton Dog Training can help you. All training methods used are positive and reward based, this means your dog being trained and it be fun for you too. Finding a knowledgeable, experienced trainer can be a difficult task, Ali Fell of Brighton Dog Training is a Kennel Club Accredited Instructor meaning that her knowledge and teaching has been assessed, observed and approved by The Kennel Club. Ali offers a supportive service, helping owners establish ground-rules, prevent unwanted behaviour and get a dog that is a pleasure to be around. All training is centred around reward, games and fun. As a dog owner, one of the first questions you ask is, Does my new companion need training? Yes, and do you! Whether you are intentionally teaching him or not, your canine friend is always learning and this is true not just for puppies but also for older, adult dogs. If you do not teach your pet your rules, he invent his own. Training allows caregivers to safely and humanely control their dog's behavior. Positive training enhances the bond between dog and owner, and helps ensure that your dog respond happily to your instructions. The key word here is 'positive.' Its essential that the dog trainer you select uses humane training techniques that encourage appropriate behavior through such positive reinforcement as food, attention, play, or praise. Look for a trainer who ignores undesirable responses or withholds rewards until the dog behaves appropriately. Training techniques should never involve yelling, choking, shaking the scruff, tugging on the leash, alpha rolling or other actions that frighten or inflict pain. Where can I find a trainer? A recommendation from a friend, neighbor, veterinarian, humane society, boarding kennel, or groomer is a good place to start. You can also check the Yellow Pages under 'Pet Training.' 't assume that a trainer's membership a dog trainer association qualifies him as a suitable instructor: Not all associations' membership criteria meet your expectations. Also, because no government agency regulates or licenses trainers, it's that much more important to investigate their qualifications before enrolling a class. Find out how years of experience they have, how they were educated, and what training methods they use. Ask prospective trainers for several references from clients who completed the classes. Which class format is best? group classes, dogs learn to interact with other dogs, accept handling by other people, and respond to their owners despite distractions. Owners learn by observing other people interacting with their dogs and benefit from the camaraderie. Self-help training, private lessons, and dog-only lessons that exclude the owner do not provide these important advantages. Another disadvantage of dog-only lessons is that the dog respond well for the trainer but not transfer what she has learned to you and your family. When possible, all family members should participate the dog's training. By learning to communicate humanely and effectively with their canine friend, they develop bonds that form the basis of the entire relationship. What should I seek a group class? Ask the trainer whether you can observe a class session before signing up. Watch for the following: Is class size limited to allow for individual attention? Are there separate classes for puppies and adult dogs? Are there different class levels Are training equipment and methods humane? Does the trainer use a variety of methods to meet dogs' individual needs? Is proof of vaccination required? Are the students, both human and canine, enjoying themselves? Are dogs and owners actively encouraged? Is praise given frequently? Are voice commands given upbeat tones? Are
