Dog training: the process of teaching a dog (Canis lupus familiaris) to perform certain actions in response to certain commands which the dog is trained to understand. It is a general term which does not, by itself, describe what or how the dog is taught.

There are many methods of dog training and many objectives, from basic obedience training to specialized areas including law enforcement, military, search and rescue, hunting, working with livestock, assistance to people with disabilities, entertainment, dog sports and protecting people or property.

As pack animals, wild dogs have natural instincts that favor cooperation with their fellow dogs. Many domestic dogs, either through instinct or breeding, can correctly interpret and respond to signals given by a human handler.

What is the cheapest but good dog training company?
Q. Im 13 and I tried to potty train my dog but he peed where I wanted him to pee for only 1 week now hes starting to pee everywhere again. I need a trainer that is good at potty training dogs.
Asked by GSDMAN - Mon May 28 14:42:13 2007 - - 5 Answers - 1 Comments

A. first be sure to have him on a feeding schedule.. then you will know when he has to potty. dante gets breakfast at 7 and a drink.. then i pick everything up for the day.. then dinner at 6 with a drink. i pick up his water around 8 and listen to see if he drinks anymore. when he drinks, just take him out to potty a few minutes later. after he goes, give him lots of hoorays and hugs adn scratches... then he knows he did a good job. also, be sure to clean up the old potty spots in the house reallly good. then he cant smell where he went and think its ok to go there again. good luck!

What would my role be in a dog training class?
Q. No, i'm not taking a dog to be trained myself... i offered myself as a volunteer and i got a couple of replies back saying that they could use my help. I have never been to a dog training session, so i was just wondering what kind of tasks you think they might give me being neither an owner or an instructor.

A. My trainer has assistants that help him to check the dog's collars (to make sure they are fitted properly), brew coffee (lol), "fetch" treats from the cupboard to drop in front of the dogs when teaching/practicing food refusal, act as distractions (walking by and snapping fingers, etc). All sorts of fun stuff! I hope you like it! I did the same thing, and am now apprenticing under my trainer, to become one myself!

How much is home dog/puppy training?
Q. I'm thinking about getting a home dog trainer. How much does it usually cost? I know it depends and the price varies, but what does it generally cost? I'm thinking about getting a trainer from barkbusters. Anyone heard of them? Are they successful at what they do? Also, in general, do these (dog training) lessons pay off. That is, are they even worth it/ beneficial? If it helps at all, I live in California.
