One Simple “Trick” To Get Damn Good Dog Training Results

You were very smart to read today’s hard hitting, information packed, entertaining email because of what you are going to learn. But first, a quick story….. …..a few years back at a business seminar I was attending, the speaker talked about how Disney World has a “No bad days” policy for their employees. The speaker said that people save for years and travel thousands of miles expecting a trip of a lifetime. If the guy dressed in the Goofy suit is in a bad mood and takes it out on a visitor, he has ruined their experience. Disney would rather… Read the rest

Had a great Father’s Day yesterday and spent it on the beach in Westport with my wife Rachael, our daughter Scarlett and our dog Martini. I did a little dog training with Martini while I was there.

Even If God Came Down And Pointed His Hand At Your Dog

So I’m sitting across from this very nice lady and her 6 month old husky the other day. As she is talking, a picture pops into my head. I was sitting there thinking of…. ….Bill Murray. I know, my thoughts concern me sometimes too. Anyway, I was thinking of Bill Murray and one of my all time favorite movies, “Meatballs.” Funny movie from the 70’s about a summer camp and the hijinks all the camp counselors get into. The best scene in the movie is when Bill gives a pep talk to rally the camp after losing last year to… Read the rest

Who Do You Think Would Win This Contest Between The Sun And Wind?

There’s an old story about the Sun and Wind. Wind was always telling the Sun that he was stronger and had more power, that he could use his strength to outdo the Sun any day of the week including Sundays. The Wind said he would prove it and pointed to a man with a jacket on. He informed the Sun that he would use his power to blow the jacket off the man. With a big gust he blasted the guy. The man grabbed his jacket and pulled it tight around him. The wind blew harder. The man hugged his… Read the rest

Laws Of “Dog Training” Success

Napoleon Hill wrote a book back in the 1930’s called the Laws of Success. In it he shares 17 principles for success. Number 10 is an interesting one. You see, principle 10 is Accurate Thinking and Mr. Hill states: “Accurate thinkers permit no one to do their thinking for them. Gather information and listen to the opinions of others, but reserve for yourself the privilege of making decisions.” This is some great advice for dog trainers because much of the information they teach is opinion based. For example: A trainer that uses electronic collars will say that the dog does… Read the rest

Breaking Bad Attitudes

Had a little chat with the missus the other day. She never watched any of the Breaking Bad series and didn’t want to. I sat her down and said: “Sweetie, let’s just watch the first episode. If you don’t like it we won’t watch it.” We are now watching the entire first season after little Scarlett goes to bed. In the last episode we watched, something interesting happened that made me think of something from years ago. On the show a drug dealer told the main character, Walter White, that he should not be a drug dealer, that he doesn’t… Read the rest

Dog Trainer Reveals One Word Dog Training Secret

I was teaching a class last week in Dartmouth MA and I shared with them the one word that would greatly improve their dog training skillz. See, I can walk into a group of dog owners with unruly dogs, take any one of them and within a few minutes, start getting results. This amazes the dog owners. “Look, he just took the worst dog in the class and now has him walking on leash and listening to him,” I often hear. Really, any good dog trainer can do the same because they know this one word. The word is… …ANTICIPATION!… Read the rest

New Bedford MA Dog Training – Common Dog Training Mistake

I was doing some dog training in New Bedford MA when I shared this quote with the person I was working with: “The only difference between lettuce and salad is timing.” Its a quote by Dan Kennedy and I used it as I was watching the dog owner train. I explained that the difference between a bribe and a reward is timing. You see, using food rewards are one of the best ways to train your dog. The problem is that you can use them the wrong way. Let me splain: Imagine your dog is in your backyard. You need… Read the rest
