Accentuate the Positive.

There are two basic ways to train your new best friend…positive or negative reinforcement. If your dog fears you, it might work for you in the short run, but long-term you want a companion who has learned through positive training, or humane training as we call it. Those are the methods of humane Las Vegas dog trainer Dennis Danskin.

 

No –

1. Shock collars

2. Clickers (it sounds like you’re training a cricket!)

3. Choke chains

4. Even treats

Your new canine companion respects you (because it is done in your home)…not the fear of doing the wrong thing! This is what Las Vegas dog trainer Dennis Danskin has used in a half-century of successful dog training. Does that sound good for your family? Then call noted Las Vegas Valley dog trainer Dennis Danskin at (702) 327-4744 and see trainhumane.net.

Choke Chains, Shock Collars, and Clickers…Oh My!

It sounds painful…doesn’t it? Imagine how it feels to your dog. Yes, there are actually dog trainers in this world who still practice those archaic techniques to train YOUR best friend. Have you ever heard the expression “I would not subject my dog to that?!” It is an expression used with disdain to express something you would never do to anyone you cared about.

Using shock collars or choke chains, etc. to train a dog are what is known as “negative reinforcement.” Many humans have been the victim of such rearing as children and it rarely turns out well. Believe me, it won’t work on your dog either! You want a best friend who wants to go out of its way to please you…not FEAR you.

When I train your puppy or grown dog I never, never use negative reinforcement. I train humane. It rolls off the tongue as an expression, but it is much more…it is a mantra of mine. Check it out, visit trainhumane.net and discover more about me, Dennis Danskin. Please call me for a complimentary meet-and-greet at (702) 327-4744.

Fear of the Unknown.

Every human suffers from it periodically. Just think how your newly adopted dog feels when you bring it home from the shelter. So many new sights and sounds…Who are you? What is that? Where do I go? When is dinner? Is that where you want me to sleep? Maybe even…who is this new canine that I have never seen before…does it belong here too?

Here are a few initial tips –

1.  Provide a quiet place for your dog to lie down.

2.  Give it a toy of appropriate size to hold in its mouth.

3.  Show it where to eliminate.

4.  Better yet, show him/her where NOT to eliminate.

Now…do you want the next decade to be as fulfilling as possible with your best friend? You can begin by calling Las Vegas dog trainer, Dennis Danskin. He will come to your home and help you and your four-legged child forge a bond that will last for the rest of its life. Please take a peak at trainhumane.net then call Dennis for a complimentary visit at (702) 327-4744.

When I Hear it…It’s Still Shocking.

Whether you have a puppy with a penchant for persistent barking, or you’d like to train your dog to stay in the yard, you may have actually considered a shock collar.  Let me say this emphatically…NO, NO, and NO.  No shock collars if you intend to train humane as I do.  I don’t believe in them, and here is why.

Here are some things we know –

1.  They provide fast results…if you were jabbed with a cattle prod the same would be true.

2.  Dogs learn fear…that’s no way to raise a child.

3.  They often deliver unintentional shocks.

4.  There is nothing positive about the reward.

Train humane.  I believe in it so strongly that I named my website trainhumane.net.  My name is Dennis Danskin.  Perhaps you have heard of me.  I have been training dogs in the Las Vegas Valley for decades.  Let’s start with a free visit in the comfort of your home and see where we go from there.  Just call me, Dennis Danskin at (702) 327-4744.

Why I Don’t Believe in Clicker Training.

If you Google dog training, you are likely to see some well-meaning dog trainer using that annoying clicker.  Those who believe in clicker training are likely to believe in something called operant conditioning.  It goes back 80 years to B.F. Skinner and is based on rewards and punishments for a particular behavior.

I believe that –

1.  You must acknowledge love, joy, and sadness…they are not machines.

2.  We are not all simply controlled by our environment.

3.  Dogs are not just animals who respond only to yelling, poking, and prodding.

4.  Operant conditioning is cruel and ineffective.

You want a four-legged companion who loves to please you…NOT being terrified if he or she does not!  That is my goal.  I am Las Vegas dog trainer Dennis Danskin.  When you call me for a complimentary in-home visit, I will begin the bonding process that will turn your wild child into a valued member of your family.  Call me anytime at (702) 327-4744.   

Are Two Dogs Better than One?

It is a complicated question.  Depending on whom you ask you may get a different response.  You could start with one basic premise.  Two females are often (but not always) a bad mix.  Believe it or not, two females will tend to fight viciously with each other even more than two males.  Now there’s a hierarchy with which humans may not be familiar!

Adding a new puppy to the household with a dog that may have established its territory for a decade or more can be tricky.  Here are some steps you can take immediately –

1.  Put away the older dog’s chew toys

2.  Have places in your home where the two can get away from each other for a minute

3.  Have separate food dishes

4.  Make sure that all of your furry friends are up-to-date with their shots

Next, call Dennis Danskin.  That’s right, The Las Vegas area’s premier dog and puppy trainer.  He has seen every possible canine combination in his half century of dog training.  If you have more than one dog in your household make sure that you call in Dennis for a seamless transition.  Anywhere in the Las Vegas NV area just call (702) 327-4744.

Obedience as a Means to an End.

Most dog trainers nationwide teach heel, sit, and stay and believe this is a conduit to overcoming behavioral problems.  Nothing could be further from the truth.  I like to call it the earned respect factor.  I build on that in your home and tackle the most common behavioral problems in dogs.  More than 9 out of 10 shelter dogs have NEVER had ANY obedience training!

Here are a few of the most common –

1.  Going to the bathroom where they shouldn’t.  You don’t remember your diaper days.

2.  Jumping excessively.  That could be cause by a lack of stimulation or boredom.

3.  Excessive barking…annoying for everybody.

I will tackle them all and many more, then show you how to maintain harmony in the household.  My name is Dennis Danskin.  I have been known as one of the leading dog trainers anywhere, but proud to serve the Las Vegas Valley.  Tap into my half-century of experience by calling me for a complimentary in-home visit at (702) 327-4744.

Zap…Ouch!

Shock collars are a type of training initially used in the 1960s to train hunting dogs.  In the 21st  Century, shock collars are used to curb a variety of stubborn and unwanted behaviors in family dogs, for a variety of reasons, as well as to train puppies to stay safely within a property line or to stick close by while off leash.  You wouldn’t do that to your child, would you?

Things you should know about shock collars –

1.  Their intensity can be adjusted to a very high level.

2.  Do you want to train your dog through fear?

3.  They may deliver a shock when not needed.

4.  There is NO positive reward.

When you were a kid did your mom or dad ever tell you “well, you’ll just have to learn the hard way”.  A shock collar IS “the hard way”!  Dennis Danskin a renowned Las Vegas area dog trainer does not believe in shock collars, choke collars, etc.  Please give him a call for a free, no obligation in-home visit and learn how he “trains humane”.  That number is (702) 327-4744.

So, You Got a New Best Friend for Christmas.

I see it every January.  A family adopts a dog during the holiday season and is overwhelmed by the prospect of integrating it into their household.  Why do so many people try to train their own dogs?  It is very easy to watch a few episodes of a dog training show or read a few chapters of a book and think you can handle the job.

Perhaps the biggest drawback of do-it-yourself dog training is the potential lost time.  Maybe a small percentage of people can successfully train their dog without help.  If you are fumbling through the process, you stand to lose valuable moments in your dog's life that could be spent reinforcing good behaviors instead of sending mixed and inconsistent messages.

How does half a century sound?  That’s right, over the last 50+ years I have trained puppies and dogs of every breed and size.  I staunchly believe in humane dog training.  That is why my website is www.trainhumane.net.  Why not let me come to your home for a free evaluation?  I’d like to meet your new arrival.  Just call me, Dennis Danskin at (702) 327-4744.

Start ‘Em Young!

Oh, how true that is.  If you start training a puppy from the get-go you will not only ensure greater success, but you will get the maximum joy out of the next dozen plus years.  That does NOT mean that an old dog can’t be taught new tricks…look at Tiger Woods!  The truth is, if you have a puppy under 6 months old let’s get to it.

Just weeks ago, your new four-legged child was jumping and playing with its peers.  You know that’s true…puppies come with same-age siblings and the behavior that they displayed just weeks ago is simply no longer acceptable.  They were born to live in your forever home.  You will be doing them an enormous favor by teaching them the ways of your household.

To achieve that beautiful balance, it is important to seek the advice and methods of a professional puppy trainer.  If you live in the Las Vegas Valley you should know the name Dennis Danskin.  He has been training our area’s dogs and puppies for over five decades.  Please call him for a free in-home visit at (702) 327-4744.

Accentuating the Positive.

NO, NO, and NO.  How many times have we used that word in our lifetimes?  Chances are, we have uttered it more often than YES.  Positive reinforcement vs. negative reinforcement.  It is an ongoing discussion in the workplace, child rearing, personal growth, and in the world of dog training as well.

One example of negative reinforcement is when the dog’s bottom is pushed to force it into the sitting position.  Another example of negative reinforcement is often used when working with a dog that is afraid of things such as other dogs.  Negative reinforcement comes with risk.  One 2014 study shows that dogs trained in this manner are 3 times more likely to display aggression among family members!

Come on now, you really don’t want that for the next dozen years or so, do you?  Dennis Danskin, a nationally renowned humane dog trainer right here in Las Vegas practices positive NOT negative reinforcement.  Please visit his website at www.trainhumane.net.  Then give him a call for a complimentary in-home visit at (702) 327-4744.
