Teaching Focus, Off, and Handling to a Fearful Dog

For help with training your dog call Andrew Ledford 714-827-4058

Here is a short video where I’m using the Off exercise and doing some handling exercises to help overcome fear of people in general and men in particular.

There is a lot more going on with these dogs than the video shows. The two dogs in the video have already been exposed to a couple weeks of dog training. I did not start the training by picking up the light colored dog or by having the male member of the house hold it. Several issues have been addressed in previous training session. At this point I am most concerned about building the white dog’s confidence. It must be mentioned that the last training session went very well. To build the dog’s confidence I’m using the off exercise in combination with other training drills, including handling and touching exercises. We are also using walks and outings to help the white dog bond with people.

All of the content from my 101-dog-training-tips website is being moved to the OCDogTraining site. This video is from the old site.
