NEED HELP WITH BEHAVIOR ISSUES?
This fantastic free online workshop on dog training from the K9 Training Institute that I recommend.
This is the first workshop of its kind that is designed to help “normal” dogs like yours have the same level of calmness, obedience, and impulse control as service dogs.
Although I’ve trained my own Chihuahuas for many years with great results, I still learned a thing or two from this workshop.
It is important to give your Chihuahua a Job to Do. That is when they are the happiest.
- How to train your dog using body language, rather than verbal cues
- The 3 key techniques that service dog trainers use to train dogs, and how you can use them too
- The most important step that "normal" dog owners have been missing (this is very important to get your dog’s attention, and it works 100% of the time)
- How to stop bad behaviors like excessive barking, pulling on the leash, jumping, etc
- Why a lot of dog owners are unable to establish the amazing bond that service dog trainers have with their dogs
