I have had a trainer train my 5 month old puppy. The dog does sit, down, stay and heel. Can you tell me how to do 180 degree about turns?
Full Question:
Help I have a 5 month old GSD doing great with a Trainer, lost the trainer the dog obeys well with sit ,down,down stay, heel. does well on leash as far as walking and making turns to the right 90 or 180's but that's it for now. How does one make the dog turn to the left on a leash???? Or make a 180 to the left on a leash???Maybe I am just dense I would appreciate a response. Thank You in advance.
Ed's Answer:
I do not agree with sending 5 month old puppy to a trainer whoever you are using needs a lot more experience. This is really bull shit to be expecting a 5 month old pup to do all of these exercises. Please tell your trainer he or she needs a lot more training themselves if they are doing this shit to a puppy.
If you would like to learn more about the principles of obedience training a dog, read the description for my Basic Dog Obedience video. You will probably find that you have not had the full picture on the steps of training a dog must go through before it can be considered fully trained. You can also read why I am not a fan of taking an untrained dog to obedience classes. I think if you read the testimonials on that tape you will see that my customers feel the same way.
