Denver Dog Training
Dogs and Denver go hand in hand. Most homes have 1 dog, if not more! The question is, what must we understand when choosing the right dog. Also, what steps should we take in order to keep our pets happy and safe.
Firstly, you want a dog that mirrors your lifestyle. Not only do you want to pick the right breed, but temper plays a major part in choice. To understand this better, you can have a Lab that loves to chase balls, the geese at the lake, and curl up on the couch giving you the cute face – waiting for you to toss popcorn in their mouth. You can also have a Lab that wants to sleep in the corner all day, watch you make dinner quietly and go downstairs to his kennel and sleep once the sun goes down. So it’s important to find that right temper for your needs. Are you active? Do you travel often? Is your dog attached to you 24 hours a day? Do you hike? Do you like to walk/run in the city? Are you interested in any dog sports? These questions help Denver dog training professionals pick the right dog. After all, they are just like our children and become a large part of our lives for years. Once we understand your needs, it’s easier to meet dogs and get an idea of whether they are a solid match or not. Doing temper tests with prospective pups is the key in getting your best dog ever!
Next, we need to make sure our dog gets a good start and our environment/interactions are conducive to them learning and growing with the family. Colorado dog training professionals offer in home training or board/train options. Both routes of training are effective and are designed to be focused on your goals. Once the dog has learned a good foundation, you can follow up with group lessons that continue to develop distraction training and develop your obedience skills. If you want to backpack with your dog, our big goal is to ensure the dog is safe out in the wilderness, won’t run off and enjoys being in his/her pack moving through the woods. If you want to walk/run Washington Park each day, we would want to ensure we have a solid heel command and no pulling on the leash, lunging at bikers, etc. All of these very attainable, with most dogs. Temper and proper training being key to helping you reach your goals. Denver dog training professionals, Colorado Top Dog have been training dogs/owners for years and have trained 2nd, 3rd and 4th dogs for some families. They take training and teaching to a whole new level.
