What’s the best way for dog obedience training?
aageezen asked:
It seems like the positive training methods only get you so far. It’s a great method to communicate with the dog – have him think and problem solve. But in presence of distractions and other temptations, it doesn’t necessarily instill reliable obedience.

Please suggest methods, advice, books or courses. Thanks!

the more i read about dog training, the more confused i get! what’s the best known approach to training a dog?
Jen asked:
i watch cesar on tv-that makes sense, i’ve read many books onpositive only approaches-that makes sense too. i have tried both clicker training and cesar’s way. i feel very confused. and opinions are strong and dogmatic(no pun intended) in both camps. meanwhile, my dog still has problems. one way seems to work for some things, another for others.

Some good training dog treat recipes for small dogs?
Lissie asked:
I need some recipes for dog treats, but small ones as I’m using them for training.
I’ve tried kibble, she hates it as a treat. I’ve tried cheese, she doesn’t care for it, I’ve tried regular dog treats she’ll eat them like dog kibble.

Training a dog to use as a therapy dog?
mystictyper413 asked:
I have a 6 month old Black lab named Saghani Takoda. My dream has always been to have a therapy dog. I have started obviously with the basic training in obediance. What I am looking for now is what kind of specific training will she need other than obidiance in order to fill her roll as a therapy dog! There is nothing more satisfying than seeing a smile that a dog brings to a sick child’s or person’s face! Any ideas for a web site to go to or organization would be greatly appreciated!

What can I expect from the Petsmart Dog Training Program?
Karen V asked:
I have a 51/2 month old Goldendoodle pup that is VERY intelligent and knows all the basic commands of sit, come, stay and bedtime (goes to her crate) and rings a bell to go potty outside!
I feel like she may be to advanced for the Petsmart puppy training. Can anyone explain what she may possibly learn that she hasn’t already by attending? I’d hate to spend money on training that is already being incorporated into her daily life.
