Alpha Paws - Dog Training Toronto

All of these available programs will help you to train your dog and gain more control over your dog, which will keep both you and other people safe.

Dog training in Toronto tends to involve two different types of board and train programs. These two programs are available as a five-day program and also a ten-day program. Both of these courses only cover basic manners and obedience and both of the programs as residency programs. The five-day program covers basic manners and this will include basic obedience training. Most of the providers that offer this service offer at least one follow up lesson and they supply the equipment that is required. This first basis level of dog training mainly focuses on teaching the dog how to learn new skills and it also helps to build the dog's attention span. In most cases the training is carried out with the dog on a lead.

The basic manners that tend to be covered are things such as not jumping, sitting and not pulling on the lead to name a few things. The ten-day basic program will basically teach the same as the five-day course but it will also incorporate some off the lead training. It is a good idea to follow up the ten-day basic program with the ten-day program that trains off the lead work and commands.

The dog-training program that is known as the drop off program is perfect for people that work but cannot be without their dog. This program involves training and exercising the dog during the day when the owner is at work. The program will require the dog to be dropped off at the trainers five days per week and normally for two weeks. The program will feature the basic commands and it will also cover crate training.

If you would prefer dog training that is more a one to one program then don't worry as it is possible to get private dog training lessons. The private lesson programs tend to be delivered over three different levels and each level will require five lessons. Each of the lessons lasts for between forty-five and sixty minutes. The first level of this program teaches the dog the basic obedience. The first five lessons will introduce the handler and the dog to the basic commands whilst teaching the dog to listen and learn. The second level of this program focuses mainly on drop lead training as well as continuing with the on lead training. The third level of this program focuses on off the lead training and uses hand commands as well as verbal commands. All of these lessons are best followed up by doing some training and practicing at home.

It is very important to take dog training seriously as this will have an impact on the relationship between yourself and your dog.
