"Ruby is a rescue and came
to us essentially untrained.
After one week of
concentrated e-collar
training she knows all her
commands...having Ruby
this far along at 7 months
really helps me in working
two dogs at once."

"Prior to my training, Duke
treated his family like he
was in charge. Asserting
the leadership role has
created the obedience we
desire without changing the
love between our dog and
family."-

| E-Touch Training E-Touch training method promotes learning and cooperation natural to dogs. Stress and discomfort do not need to be part of the training experience. The remote training collar is a tool that is added to training methods customized for the individual dog. |

"I really enjoyed the workshop by Carolina Dog Training and That's My Dog!
As one of the trainers for the Pentagon Police K9 Section, we have been
researching and educating ourselves on the use of remote training collars.
After attending your workshop I have begun using remote collars in a number
of different facets within our K9 program with wonderful results. The
combination of instruction that I received was excellent and exactly what I've
been looking for. If I have any fellow trainers or handlers that are looking for
some remote collar guidance, I will be sending them your way. Thanks,
Richard Pangborn"

He was so cute, you just couldn’t resist him. You imagined your kids playing for hours with the
little, fun-loving bundle of fur, curling up on the couch with him, or watching him casually chewing
a bone while curled up at your feet or on a dog bed. Visions of Lassie danced through your head.
Now the holidays are over and the little guy is screaming all night long, nipping the kids (who no
longer want to play with him), disemboweling the furniture, leaving spots on the carpet,
scampering off when you call him and ignoring your every command. What can you do?
Raising a puppy isn’t much different from raising a child, except that they grow up much faster.
You have a responsibility to teach him how to behave, keep his environment safe and socialize him
so he grows up to be a well-rounded, friendly dog.
These tips will help you get your puppy under control and on the right track to being a good canine
citizen:
• Tie the puppy to you. Get a piece of clothesline about 10 feet long and tie a clip to each end.
Clip one end to the puppy’s collar, the other end around your waist whenever he’s out of his crate.
You’ll be able to know what he’s up to every moment, keep him from inappropriate chewing, stop
him if he’s having an accident, and he’ll learn to walk on a leash and respect you as his leader.
• Buy him a crate. He will learn to accept the crate as his little den. A crate will confine him when
he can’t be watched, will aid in his housebreaking, give him security at night or at nap time.
Introduce it by throwing in a yummy treat and praising him when he goes in. Close the door behind
him for only a second or two at first, then increase the time. The crate should be only large enough
for him to stand up and turn around to be useful for housebreaking.
• Get a good book on raising a puppy if you haven’t raised one for a long time. Training and
management methods have changed a lot in recent years as we learn more about dogs, their
behavior and how they learn. CDT recommends: The Art of Raising A Puppy by The Monks of New
Skete
• Socialize, socialize, socialize! Your puppy needs to be exposed to new people, new dogs,
new situations, new surfaces before he’s 4 months old or he risks being maladjusted and fearful or
aggressive as an adult. Make sure his interactions with new experiences are happy and fun, not
scary and stressful.
• Schedule a Private Puppy Consultation in your home. This two hour program is designed to
teach you how to train your puppy, care for him, socialize him with people and other dogs and set
him up for future learning. And -- it’s FUN! For more information, visit: Carolina Dog Training
Services
• Remember, he’s just a baby. He has to learn house rules. He needs to chew to learn about
things in his environment and for dental health. He may not be able to “hold it” all night until he’s
almost 6 months old. He isn’t trained yet, and won’t be for some time. Be kind but firm and always
consistent.
• Teach children how to behave around the puppy. Don’t let them harass him, tease him or hurt
him. Children should not discipline a puppy - an adult should be the “pack leader.” Always
supervise when children are with a dog or puppy and stop inappropriate behavior.
• Remember -- what gets rewarded gets repeated! Praise your puppy for good behavior and
avoid petting or giving treats when he’s misbehaving. Many people inadvertently reward puppies
for bad behavior. For example, distracting him with a treat while he’s chewing your slippers may
seem like a reward to your dog. Keep in mind that every time you pet, praise or treat your dog, it is a
reward for whatever he is doing at the time and he will be likely to do it again.
Raising a puppy takes a commitment of time and energy but if you put the time in now, you will
enjoy many years of love and companionship.
