TRAINING SESSIONS

TRAINING SESSIONS @ HOME

MiDogz™ understands that all responsible dog owners desire a

well-behaved dog and that they want to commit their time to

achieve this. This is not possible to achieve as there is sometimes

just not enough hours in a day to attend to all our responsibilities.

We normally end up frustrated because we are not able to control

our dogs.

Obedience training by a Qualified Dog Trainer @ Home

Some dog owners prefer the convenience of having a qualified

dog trainer work with them and their dog in their own homes.

The advantages to the dog owner;
 

• privacy;

• no need to transport the dog to classes;

• no fixed appointments to attend training classes;

• time saved, and

• the dog owner receives on the spot problem solving advice

        as problems can be more effectively addressed in the dog’s

        own environment.

The advantages to the dog;

• No trauma to the dog when it is sent away to remote training institutions.

• No need to repeat the commands again at home after returning

          from a training institution.

• The dog ascertains obedience under normal home environment circumstances.

• The dog associates his home environment as the place of

        regular obedience.

Training methodology;
It should be remembered that the training of animals is a dynamic

field. Many improvements in training techniques have occurred since

the very early days of the ‘choke chain’ training methodology.

A similar training methodology, which is practiced in the training of

Dolphins, is followed by MiDogZ.™ This humane training methodology

is vital to MiDogZ.™  Progress is also made according to the dog’s

individual capabilities, which are positively reinforced.

We base our training on the principle that the animals want to

spend time with us and our human presence must be a positive

experience for them.

MiDogZ™ Progressive training programme;
The programme focuses on aiding you in your daily dealings with

your dog. This includes;

• Leash acceptance;

• Obedience, in conjunction with basic commands, is taught 

        off-leash and on-leash. This is easy to comprehend.

• Heelwork on the leash, ‘forward!’, ’left!’, ‘right!’, and about

        turn.

• ‘Sit-at-heel!’ on the leash.

• ‘Down-at-heel!’ on the leash.

• ‘Sit-and-Down!’ at a distance

• ‘Come!’

• ‘Stay!’

• Learned behaviours are reinforced on a weekly basis.

• We include both hands-on training for your dog and provide

        you with step by step instructions, to ensure your dog responds

        to you.

• This programme also provides for a few non-compulsory group obedience classes after the owner and dog are deemed qualified

        and ready for progressive training. This is critical for teaching

        your dog proper socialization skills, and how to listen around

        distractions. This is part of the package and is done at no

        additional cost.
