NavigationINCIDENT REPORTIf your dog is involved in a fight or other such incident in the park, we ask that you use this form (found under Rules & Regulations on our website) to file a report. This helps us determine what circumstances are most likely to lead to fights. We can then establish groundrules that avoid these situations and lead to a more peaceful environment. It also helps us identify dogs that exhibit problem behavior and take steps appropriate to the circumstances. User login |
Positive Reinforcement Dog TrainingThe reason this so effective is because it's based on your number one thing your dog craves ... YOUR LOVE. Almost 100% of your dog's behavior (both good and bad) is a result of getting your attention ... or trying to get your attention. In fact, almost all "problem" behavior with dogs can be traced back to one thing -- RECEIVING ATTENTION AT THE WRONG TIME Here’s an example of the WRONG reinforcement- Your dog jumps all over you - You look down and say "Down, (your dog's name)... DOWN!". Then you take dog's paws off of you, placed your dog on the ground, and pet him. Here's what's going on in your dog's head.... even if you're saying "No!" ... and scolding your dog. Your dog is thinking, "WOW! EVERY TIME I jump on you, I get attention! This is great! ...I THINK I'LL JUMP ON you MORE OFTEN!" ...And the cycle continues. The good news is: 1. This problem is easy to fix There are logs of free Dog training tips on the Web, including these: Doctor P's Dog Training |
