Dog training is not a job for everyone. It demands a great deal of time and dedication. Repeating instructions and doing the same activities over and over gets monotonous and dull. For this reason many trainers have started incorporating the use of other items and gadgets to spice up the training experience. The use of books, toys, special items, and videos are some examples of useful training aids.
Videos that explain dog training can only be improved by having somebody at home with you. Videos contain plenty information on the various training techniques, covering each one in detail. Thus, when the pet owner sits to analyze his training exercises and compare them to the ones in the video, he can easily point out his mistakes. These videos are available everywhere lately. Your dog’s veterinarian would probably be the best place to start your search. There are also pet stores, training schools, and even the supermarket. Of course there is always the internet, where you could easily find numerous titles just by doing a search on “dog training video”.
Some videos approach training from the dog’s perspective. They follow up on the dog’s activity and mount a voice over it that resembles what the dog is thinking. This is fine, although I prefer the ones that include a real person in the activity, so I may identify my place in the exercise as well. A few others tend to focus a lot on a dog that has already been trained. In these videos, the viewer, although entertained, does not gather much of what he really needs in the step by step process.
The best kind of dog training video will be the ones made as group activity, with pet owners present and a group of dogs with no training what so ever. Starting out from scratch is where most interested viewers will be at as well. They will benefit the most from the instructions given at the beginning stages of the video. The beginner stage is always the hardest one, where dogs and pet owners alike will be trying to find their place in the situation. As a pet owner, you will trying to say the right things, in the right tone of voice and in the right way. Your dog, on the other hand, will be feeling confused and looking around for clues on how to react. This is where videos are of most use, being able to present examples of behavior you can playback again, and again.
Instructional videos are a great tool, whether they are for dog training or any other task you wish to achieve. They are inexpensive, and provide a lot of useful information and examples on an easy to deliver package. Some instructional videos feature a recognized and reputable expert on the field, which may be able to provide abundant, in depth information on how to better handle your dog. Get recommendations for videos available, and let them make your job easier and more enjoyable!
