Clicker Training: A Quick and Easy Way to Reinforce Your Dog’s Behaviors

Last Updated February 5, 2019 //  by Thomas Wipperman

What is Clicker Training? Clicker Training revolves around using a small, easy to hold object to signal a correct behavior. When your dog performs the correct behavior, the clicker is pressed, making a small, distinct noise. This noise informs the dog that it has performed correctly, and reinforces the behavior. The concept itself is very …

Nothing In Life Is Free (NILIF) – Teaching Your Dog To Say Please

Last Updated February 20, 2019 //  by Thomas Wipperman

Rescue Info

Last Updated January 23, 2019 //  by Thomas Wipperman

Finding the right dog for you doesn’t necessarily mean getting a puppy. Other than the puppy I had as a child, all of my dogs have been adults and they’ve been wonderful! I was able to skip the housebreaking/chewing stages and the bonds were just as strong as if I’d raised them from puppyhood. The …

Pack Drive | To Improve Your Relationship With Your Dog

Last Updated January 23, 2019 //  by Thomas Wipperman

The kind of grooming that will most increase pack drive is grooming every day. This gets your hands all over the dog, the dog working cooperatively with you to turn this way and that so you cover all the hair. Comb the hair completely through with a top-quality comb if it’s long, give the dog …

Canine Handling in a Clinical Setting

Last Updated January 23, 2019 //  by Thomas Wipperman

As of a few years ago, graduates of veterinary schools and veterinary technician schools often told me that they were taught that you have to “show the dog who’s boss” by applying fear-based techniques when confronted with an uncooperative pet. This is based on a presumption that all dogs should display a submissive posture to all humans. Growls, …

There’s a lot of talk these days about training styles and methods. I suppose there has always been talk about such stuff among dog people. I don’t subscribe to any particular method or style, but I do have something to say about such stuff. Oh, you knew that. 🙂 I believe that whatever methods you …

Kitchen Training – Keeping Your Dog out From Under Your Feet When Food is Around

Last Updated January 23, 2019 //  by Thomas Wipperman

I know what it’s like to try to cook, or eat a meal, when you own a perpetually starving dog. My Labradorus goofus, Pierce, acts as if he hasn’t eaten in weeks when there is activity in the kitchen or dining room. He takes every opportunity to search the kitchen floor for molecules of anything …
