What Nahant Dog Owners Say About Dog Coach: Reviews of Our Training

“I would like to thank the Dog Coach, specifically Sarah, for giving us the tools and resources for training our one-year-old French Bulldog. I am a person suffering from a debilitating disease that has left me with one-sided gait issues. Before training, walking with the dog was very difficult because of his penchant to pull at the leash and get distracted by almost anything. 

After overcoming our apprehension about the prong and remote collars, we noticed an immediate change in the way our pup was walking and responding to commands. Sarah was able to teach me and my partner the correct way to train. Although at first it was intimidating, Sarah quickly alleviated our nervousness and gave us reassurance that we were on the road to success. I opted for the five-session Dog Coach Remote Collar Program at Dog Coach. It was a huge success and our dog is happier and more well-behaved than ever.” – Brent O.

Dog Training Tip for Nahant: Fostering Good Ball Play Habits 

We’ve all seen the ball-obsessed dogs. Dog training is comprehensive and managing your dog’s ball play is an important part of staying in control of play time. Whether your dog is one of those ball-obsessed ones, is still young, or just learning to play with a ball, these tips can help you foster a healthy game of fetch. 

If your dog is blinded with an adrenaline rush the second a ball comes out, you only need to have a few tosses. Continuing to throw the ball “when the dog wants it” only perpetuates the ball craziness and takes you out of the driver’s seat. It also starts to work against getting your dog to settle down. When the ball is put away how soon can your dog get back to the calm state of mind we all want for our family dog?

Ball play shouldn’t be used just to “tire your dog out” – playtime is important to a happy and healthy dog, but training, structured walks, and other forms of play should be part of your daily routine. All dogs need exercise, but that can come in many forms and should be balanced with activities that foster a calm state of mind.
