There are literally thousands of dog training manual and courses on the market and its hard to know which way to go. There is a very natural way for you to work with your dog that brings you closer together using animal communication. With good communication it does not matter what dog training method you use as you will naturally find the true path.
So does this sound familiar, you are walking in the park all is well then your dog starts loosing it and is behaving well out of line. You shout and scream but no matter how loud you are not influencing him or her at all. You may as well not be there as his ears are switched off. Unfortunately all other ears in the park seem to be working very well!
Out come all those secret dog training skills that you have been working on. The pack leader stance, sharp hand signal, the food distraction. They all mould into one and instead of bringing him or her back into control the only thing that you achieve is create great entertainment of the other dog walkers.
Any good minded person wants a relationship with their dog that is caring and has a heart felt closeness. Everyone wants a happy and well-behaved dog! The true dog human relationship is full of joy and fun while wrapped in a blanket of security and devotion. Dogs have an abundance of unconditional love and unconditional forgiveness to share with us.
Then what is the best way in creating this balanced working relationship with your dog? Well if you want your dog to listen to you then you had better think about starting to listen to them. Now you dog is not going to start talking to you in English but they are always communicating using a language of feelings and when you place your attention with them you will start to feel their communication
How can you make this work for your dog human relationship? By learning to give your dog full attention on a feeling level you will be able to share detailed communication with them and this opens up a whole new level of understanding
When I say "your can feel them in detail" I mean you can understand them on a deeper emotional and physical level. The great thing is that you do not need to be gifted to make this type of communication happen as everyone can do this and it is very easy to learn.
Animal communication is so much easier than you maybe thinking and you are only simple steps away from dramatically improving your dog training and developing a deeper and more meaningful relationship, so it really worth looking into!
Training Animals Should Be with Trust
by James French
Humans have so many different opinions when it comes to training animals. There is what is known as the old school training and this is usually based on the idea that we are the superior being and animals had better do as we command or there will be trouble.
Then there is the complete opposite, where the human is letting their animals do as they please even when the behaviour is is clearly out of place. Usually with the pretence that they love their animals too much to correct them.
Of courses there are many stages between the two, so what is the right balance? Where can we find the place where both the animal and the human are happy and well behaved?
So to get a better understanding lets look at these two extremes and what is happening on an emotional level.
The hard approach is similar to a child who is doing what they are told in the fear of the consequence. This child can be very submissive and show insincere behaviours, finding it hard to express them selves and shows emotional sensitivity.
Horses that are in this state are jumpy and find it hard to concentrate as they are move focused on the feeling that this person is going to tell them off for not getting it right.
Now lets look at the opposite, here is an animal with way too much responsibility. The person is not teaching the animal and this produces a lack of confidence. Dogs with no guidance can become fearful and even over protective. In extreme cases they resort to aggression because they literally don't know any other way forward.
This animal is also racing in their minds producing too much emotion to find their own confidence.
Have a look at the video below which uses a method based on building trust between an animal and a human. Creating a relationship by helping them to find peace of mind.
When you have a relationship with an animal based on a feeling of trust then you have that special balance. Then there is no need to shout or be aggressive with your animal training, it would make no sense. With trust the human naturally finds the balance where they can help and teach their animal with no fears.
Your animal with naturally listen to you when they share this feeling of trust, as you will be someone who is trust worthy.
The world of animal training is changing as more people discover much more efficient and rewarding ways in working with animals. It is not the animals who need or are going to change this it is us!
How Animal Communication Changed My Life And Enhanced My Dog Training!
by Rebecca Lowe
We first encountered animal communication when we had reached the end of our dog training with our Border Collie Cross Badger. We reached a point when everyday dog training no longer worked with her, this is her story.
Life had become settled and dare I say boring so to spice things up a little we decided to look into getting a puppy! We read dog training manual after dog training manual and the day eventually arrived when we felt we had read enough and we were ready to go get one!
We put everything we had learned into practice from day 1 and wow was she responsive or were we just that good at it?! She picked up all the usual commands with total ease, this was going to be a breeze.
Sadly not long after this, this all changed, this cute little responsive puppy had started showing her teeth and growling if we went near anything she considered hers. The dog training went out of the window.
The day arrived when the inevitable happened - she bit me. It didn't stop there, this then transferred to my husband and anyone we met, she wasn't choosy anymore. On a walk if someone went to stroke her head she would whip round snarling, she decided what was hers and would shoot across the room if you went near 'her' things food, water, toys, anything really. She would lay in her bed curled up into a little ball just staring at us. 'What's wrong little girl' we would ask, if only we could get into her head and work out what really went on in there.
Holidays and days out became a thing of the past as did visits to family and friends with the dogs. Nothing reached her any more not even the additional dog training, we were at a total loss as to what to do for all of us.
During this period we consulted numerous dog trainers and behaviourists but none could give us any advice that actually changed her behaviour. She was now 1 year old and we were no further forward. If anything, we were going backwards.
Life by this time was so incredibly limited, we could not simply sit by and wait for something to happen. We could not understand our dog's unpredictable behaviour. What options were left to us? If we had tried to re-home her she would never have left the dog shelter. We were eventually advised it may be best to put her to sleep.
Around this time, a friend had consulted an Animal Communicator and had had some very good results with her own dogs. Nothing else had worked to this point but we decided to contact an Animal Communicator in one last ditch attempt.
Insight and understanding of our dog was desperately needed by us and with no other obvious way to get this we contacted James French, a recommended Animal Communicator.
Well, what can I say, simply life changing for all of us! This may seem like I have jumped rather quickly to a happy ending but this is quite simply what happened! James gave us the insight we so desperately needed and the understanding that was required to move forward. He told us what she needed and quite frankly what she did not need!
We learned that Badger's digestive system was shot to pieces. The vet had never picked this up, despite numerous visits. This explained why she could not bear to be touched, she was not aggressive after all, she was just in constant pain.
The other thing we learned was a little more mind blowing. Whilst we knew she was highly anxious yet extremely dominant this was not technically her fault?! Badger had become my mirror, I reeled when I was gently informed of this. How could this be? What on earth had I done to my dog? But I had read all of the dog training manuals and done everything to the letter? It suddenly dawned on me we had been going through this for 3 years now and I was practically a nervous wreck and between us we were caught up in our own little vicious circle.
To cut a long story short, we changed her food to a raw food diet and a lot of the undesired behaviour vanished within a few weeks - AMAZING! I then had to change my own behaviours to enable Badger to change hers.
I gave up my very stressful job, I started having more 'me' time to enable me to relax properly. Most importantly, I decided that I also wanted to train to become an Animal Communicator.
I really feel this story is some sort of fairy tale....If we had of given in and taken her to rescue centre she would never have left, if she had had different owners she may have been put to sleep. How many people and dogs were suffering out there? How many dogs were being put to sleep each day, each year just because they cannot be heard?
I am now a fully qualified Animal Communicator and spend my life helping other people and their dogs and it really has taken my own dog training to a whole new level. Where dog training has been unsuccessful for you and your dog, Animal Communication is a MUST.
