I literally saved her life. I was extremely panicked but my brain remembered what to do because I had learned how to approach the situation through your pet first aid course. I had to perform the Heimlich maneuver and then help dislodge the item from her mouth where it became stuck and was causing bleeding. My dog was panicked too and was in a state where she was ready to bite… I put Gloves on and used a utensil to dislodge the item after bringing it up with the Heimlich maneuver. She is fine now. I am so grateful for that excellent course!  Thank you! (Ramona )”

“I received an interesting call tonight.  My friends who live six hours away from me called and asked me about doing First Aid.   Their dog was hit by a car, walked home and collapsed.  So, over the phone I was able to tell her how to treat for shock and an injured tail while they waited for a Veterinarian to be available.” (Joyce Wampler in Morocco)

Basic Dog Training Skills and Theory Using Positive Methods

March 23, 2011 By Cheryl Aguiar |

positive dog training onlinePurpose: This positive dog training course will teach you the fundamentals of training a dog the basics all dogs should know. The techniques to be applied are based on developing and strengthening a trusting relationship between the human and the dog using positive reinforcement.

Course Information: This class is designed for the beginning dog trainer who wants to learn how to teach a dog the basic skills and behaviors all dogs should know. It is best used with any dog over the age of six months who has never taken a training class before or needs a refresher on basic manners. The trainer will learn how to precisely signal a dog’s correct response with a small hand-held “clicker” and reward the behavior so that it will more likely happen again. Obedience exercises such as sit, stand, down, and stay are introduced, as are loose-leash walking, polite greetings, “leave-it”, attention and the really reliable recall – skills crucial to the pet dog living in our society. The trainer will gain a better understanding of what dogs need and can be expected to achieve dogs in the household. Problem behaviors are also covered such as jumping, digging, barking, housebreaking, etc.

NOTE: You will also have video homework required to be sent for feedback from the Instructor.

Prerequisites: None

Here is a video from a past student and her dog Elsa. This is Anna and Elsa’s “homework assignment.”

What you can expect to learn from this course:

  • Understand how dogs learn and how to use equipment
  • Learn to use a clicker and positive reinforcement
  • Learn the skills needed to continue training your dog throughout its development
