Training My Dog
from:I am sure everyone knows how frustrating it can be to be at
odds with your best friend, especially if there is a
communication gap. In our case, this problem came in the form of
our Luna. She is the love of our lives, but being a 180lb. St.
Bernard, has given us a few challenges to overcome.
Training my dog has been very rewarding. There was a time when
it was impossible to even take her for a walk on a leash. She
would get so excited, and be out of control the second you
opened the door to go outside. Being as big and as powerful as
she is, I'm sure you can imagine the site, or have maybe even
been the poor person holding that leash. I knew I had to get
training my dog if she was going to be a family member who would
be able to do things with us.
I can't believe how easy it was and how fast we got results.
My 5 year old son can even walk her now and she outweighs him by
140lbs.! Everyone in the house is so happy, especially our Luna.
We can take her with us anywhere without worrying she will be
out of control or cause problems. While training my dog, we were
all able to learn how to communicate with her and not get
frustrated with her like we did some of the times before. She is
probably easier to deal with than the kids!
Dog training covers so many more areas than I had ever even
considered. There is so much you can do with them. It has helped
an important member of my family, Luna, really take her place in
the middle of our family. She is able to be a house dog, without
me having to worry she will knock one of the kids down the
stairs because she is trained not to go down the staircase until
everyone else is all the way down. I now realize how smart dogs
are if you only educate yourself first.
Since training my dog we have not had even one in house
accident, no one has gotten plowed over, and Luna is with us
whenever we can take her. She can be out in the yard with us
without a leash, lets us know when someone is here, and my kids
wanted me to add that they take her trick or treating, and she
goes with us to watch their little league and football
practices. Our next adventure is going to be camping with her.
Wish us luck! We are all very thankful to have Luna in our
lives, and very thankful for being able to learn how to work
with her in such a positive way.
Good luck with your best friend. We wish you many happy walks
and sunshine to play in, and we hope everyone has as good of a
training experience as we had.
