on last nights live course of Green to Graduate 2 I show you how I teach swimming, we have free videos online to also show you

if you understand even the littlest thing about a nervous dog and the flight response they have, having a prong collar on the walk is actually the safest as well as the best teaching device for long-lasting results...

one of the big things that we see out there is dogs that have not had enough life experiences, they have not been exposed to enough sounds, sites, sensations, people, animals, distractions and a lot of that can come out then as having a fearful dog later, we see it daily including the dog we are filming with this week.

Even after 20 years and 10,000 dogs and 300 seminars around the world and 14 years of podcasting and talk radio, and rehabbing some of the most dangerous dogs around as well as full off leash training and rehabbing dogs with huge success, i find it so funny that folks still come up with the most nonsensical comments to try to hurt me...ummmmm you look stupid FYI

so many folks don\'t actually understand what a fully trained dog is. A dog that is under voice control, a dog that listens, a dog you can take anywhere, a dog that you eliminate unwanted behaviors , a dog that makes a great safe companion. So when folks say they don\'t want a mechanical dog, okay, dont get one from MIT, but I am not sure what you are actually talking about.

we did a quick IG story of the dog we are using for our Green to Graduate 2 live 10-day workshop and asked what would the dog normally do, he saw it and wrote back. We have made incredible progress in a very short amount of time, there is no reason your dog can\'t as well you don\'t need to hire a dog trainer.

this is the common cut-and-paste comment that folks like to parrot over and over again, without any grounds of knowledge, how can you talk about what you don\'t know, well sure folks can have an opinion, but its an uneducated opinion, and if you want to go up against facts and real-life experience, with your inexperienced opinion and go through life like that, I hope the best for you and your fami...

Today is the last day before the Green to Graduate 2 course, a live 10-14 day online workshop where you see live the starting and training of a brand new dog coming in for a 2-week board and train. Lots of unwanted behaviors and know obedience. We take you step by step through the process and show you EVERYTHING, no editing at all is done its not too late to sign up.

we see so many dogs that struggle and so many families that struggle as well that things can be so much better, and its not even about anything complicated at all, we did a post on this as well as sent out an email on it going over it, just wanted to discuss it with all of you today.

One of our board and train dogs who was owned by a dog breeder, handler, trainer and show person got a dog that was not from her litter and it was totally different than any of her previous dogs that she has been showing for the last 40 years, leash reactive, constant nose on the ground, could not walk her, and a host of other issues, she could not even show her and this is a very experienced show...

https://solidk9academy.com/jeff Go to a mechanic ask them to check your oil, they don\'t know how. hire an electrician to change out a power outlet, they don\'t know how, go to a horse trainer and ask them how to put a saddle on a horse, they don\'t know how.....ummmmm they all suck, they can\'t even do the most basic thing of their job description, if a dog trainer can\'t teach a dog to heel in 1...

I am out in San Diego and they have a little white fluffy dog, maybe 15#, it explodes at other dogs, she walks it on a harness, i mind my business, i don\'t train my families dogs but the dog explodes when it sees other dogs, so she crosses the street when she sees other dogs, i told her this was bullshit so i showed her a simple one second technique and we walked by the dog.

lots of folks have been asking what the difference between Green to Graduate and Green to Graduate 2 is, which is just being launched. There is a huge difference and I break it all down in this am show.

so many folks try to stop unwanted behaviors with putting the dog in a sit and trying to get eye contact, sorry to let you know, that is useless as far as step one, you need to stop the unwanted behavior and ironically dogs just start looking at you

so many folks are seeing happy go luck dogs, playful dogs, friendly dogs without even realizing there are so many dogs that are the polar opposite, we live in that world and that is why our content is what it is, the philosophy is what it is (even though much of our philosophy is great for all dogs) so many folks just don\'t understand out world, that is one of the reasons for the negativity to ho...

Folks are taking basic obedience classes 5-6 classes where dogs learn basic commands, maybe they go to an advanced class and do another 5-6, they get their piece of paper and then are surprised when their dog does something it wasn\'t supposed to do, something simple or something more extreme, what where you expecting and why did you think your dog was even close to trained for the real world.
