RETRIEVING & OBEDIENCE TRAINING
The retrieving & obedience training is open to all dogs & breeds with trainer Joshua Martin, located in Port Neches, TX. We get the job done by adapting to each dog rather than have the dogs conform to one method. Repetition and patience while remaining calm always get the results we want.
We work with you based on what your goals and objectives are for you and your dog.
The obedience work will be trained along with the retrieving work. Your dog will learn how to heel, sit, stay, down and have manners around other people and kids. We use obstacle courses in our training program that builds the confidence of each dog while learning new skills by only being cued with the Delmar Smith Wonder Lead. Once they have the knowledge and understanding of the skills I ask, I then overlay that command from the wonder lead to the electric collar. The sooner you can start teaching your dog good manners around people the better off he will be when he gets older. If you have a naturally hyper dog and do not start teaching good manners at a young age, the harder it will be to instill the good behavior we want, as he was allowed to get away with it for so long.
Some dogs are more prone to LOVE retrieving while some will do it because they have to. Our goal is to make retrieving fun for every dog. Regardless of the type of dog yours is, we have to make the process enjoyable. Along with the obedience work we incorporate retrieving into it as well. By cuing the dog with the lead we are able to get the results we want. Like in the obedience we overlay the leash cue to the electric collar once they understand what we are asking them to do. Your dog will learn to mark multiple retrieves while sitting at heel and not breaking until verbally released to retrieve. He will be introduced to gun fire in the form of a .22 caliper bumper launcher at the end of the program. Proper gun introduction is important as they need to correlate gun fire with retrieving.
Your dog will be trained daily and played with like he is part of our family.
Every dog is different, some will finish in 1 month, some will take at least 2 months, but I don't charge for more than 2 months if the dog needs more time. If you are interested in having your dog trained to retrieve or just have obedience work done, feel free to contact me.
Each dog will go home with a complimentary Delmar Smith Wonder Lead and you will be shown how to use it.
