Placing Your Dog’s Safety Above Your Training Goals

This short video was shot while filming our 3rd DVD on decoy work with Mark Keating. Unfortunately it was a windy day and the audio did not come out the best. We decided that although the audio was not good enough to make it into the DVD it was still a valuable lesson for everyone. Too many people will try and train through an injury, which will in turn only cause more problems for your training and the health of your dog.

We have 3 dogs in our house and a friend is moving in with their dog. Our oldest dog and the youngest dog (golden retriever and chihuahua) keep trying to pick fights with our friend's dog. How can we prevent this? My mom tries punishing them, but I know that there is a better way.

Cindy's Response:

I would read the article Ed wrote on introducing dogs. Here is a video about this as well.

On Leerburg's Training the Send Away DVD

Absolutely fantastic well presented DVD on the Send Away. Presents many training situations and or possible problems you may find when teaching your dog the Send Away. Great to see a variety of breeds represented and a good balance of trainers at different levels. I feel confident in being able to train my dog the Send Away using this DVD as a reference. Job well done.
