Training in a foreign language may sound cool, but there is another issue involved. This is the fact that under stress you will often, if not usually, revert back to your native tongue. "Stress" may be something as simple as " my dog NEVER did that before", :-) on the field, or as serious as someone trying to do you or your dog real harm. Can you remember the correct command while trying to get another dog off of your dog's throat, stay untangled with the leash, figure out what the crazy s.o.b.'s owner is doing and grab your pepper spray all at the same time?
Experienced dogs are very "situational", and I dare say that a good SchH III dog can do a routine correctly even if you forget and give the wrong command, which happens pretty frequently. A PPD or PSD can and will face unknown situations, all of which simply cannot be forseen and trained for. If you train in your native tongue, you are much more likely to say the right thing at the right time...JMO.

Nothing worse sounding than a yankee trying to speak southern. It's kind of like a bad combover, ya just ain't a foolin anyone.
Ikor, I totally agree with you. I teach my dogs in English, or at least what we recognize as English here in the south. An officer under stress, with his world falling apart around him, has enough to worry about. It's pretty for show, but we are just working folk.
PS. Van Camp, that John Deere 6600 makes my dirt farmin a lot easier.

Ikor,
At this point I have a hard time training other people's dogs in English. Every thing comes out in German. Part of the purpose of training is to get familiar with the commands under stress. I have seen a lot of beginers with dogs and they tend to switch between languages and the dogs pick it up fine.
The idea that training a dog in another language wiil prevent the dog from responding to someone else just isn't the way it works. If nothing else the hand signals are uniform even if the commands are different. If you want to proof your dog against taking commands from some one else, train for it. Sooner or later you will need to have the dog respond to someone else, like a boarding situation or a Vet procedure. The thing I train my dogs for is if they are on leash and the leash is handed to someone else they will respond to that person. If I have the leash, or they are off lead they won't.
If you can't be a Good Example,then You'll just have to Serve as a Horrible Warning. Catherine Aird. |

I noticed the other day when showing my son how to train his Lab that I was speaking in German. My poor kid was like "Dad?? what are you doing?" Needless to say, his Lab responds well to come, hier, sitz, platz, and foos. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />
