Sweet Nothings - What a Dog Whisperer Can Do for your Fido

Do you have a dog that is difficult to handle? One who jumps up on guests or who growls when you take food away from him? Training a dog does not need to be a difficult task, and a dog whisperer can teach you the most effective ways to make the task doable.

A dog whisperer knows how to talk to dogs in ways they understand. Dogs are pack animals, and by observing their pack behaviors, you can learn a lot about how they learn and interact. A good dog whisperer is proficient in this pack language and uses it to effectively train your dog.

When you bring a dog into your home, the dog assumes itself to be part of a family pack comprised of humans and the dog. It is important for the humans to assume the lead roles in the pack right from the start, or the dog will assume that role. Once the dog thinks he is in the lead role, he will act that way. That is when behavior problems begin to arise.

A dog that thinks he is in control of the pack will do what he wants, when he wants. This dog will pull on his leash while on a walk, essentially taking you for a walk instead of the other way around. This dog will insist on being the first one in and out of doorways, will decide when and where he will sit, lay down, and listen to your commands This behavior will not get better as long as the dog thinks he is in control.

Enter the dog whisperer. The dog whisperer will teach you ways to speak to and handle your pet that will re-establish your dominance in the pack. You will learn the subtle language that packs use to establish member roles. By using voice inflections and body posture, the dog whisperer will show you how to get your pooch under control.

For example, lying on its back is a submissive posture for a dog. The dog that thinks he is in the dominant, or alpha, dog position in the pack will avoid this posture. The dog whisperer will show you how to place the dog on his back, making him lay there while you hover over him. This shows the dog that you are taking the alpha position and that he must submit. This will not be easy at first, but eventually the dog will learn that he must give up his position in the pack. This is an effective discipline for the dog that refuses to listen to you. Pretty soon he will get the hint that you expect him to act a certain way and that he better listen to your voice.

A firm, but not necessarily loud, voice is also essential in getting your dog under control. Many women find that their dogs will not listen to them, and often think it is because they are not as loud as men can be. However, dogs will listen better to a voice that is firm and calm than to one that is loud and high pitched. A good dog whisperer will have studied this effect on dogs and will be able to teach you how to use the right tone of voice with your dog.

A dog whisperer is also good at helping dogs that display bizarre behaviors. These behaviors include, but are certainly not limited to, incessant barking, chasing cars, biting and aggressive behavior, and separation anxiety. Sometimes these behaviors show certain fears and anxieties the dog has about his position in the pack. Other times it comes from a lack of understanding and knowledge about the kind of dog you have. Certain breeds need to have you establish that dominant role immediately, or the results can be disastrous.

If you have tried every type of training with your dog to no avail, you may want to consider the dog whisperer. It is a safe and gentle approach at dog training, and is highly effective. This type of training will also brings you and your dog closer together as you gain a better understanding of how to communicate with him. He will also feel more secure in your family pack as he feels that you understand his language. Some might say the dog whisperer can work miracles, while others say it is pure genius. Either way, results have shown that the method of training a dog whisperer employs gets desired results quickly. That leads to a happier relationship between dog and owner.
