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.

What a Shock!

Did you ever want to shock your toddler to get their attention?  Of course, you would not do that.  So many people however, think that it is okay when training your four-legged child.  Therefore, they think that buying a shock collar, or e-collar, or remote training collar is the correct way to get your dog to do what you want it to.

Go ahead, put that collar on your own neck and see how it feels…I didn’t think so!  Shock collars have a history.  They were first used more than 50 years ago for the specific purpose of training hunting dogs.  Today, they are used as a deterrent to train away negative or unsafe behavior.  Don’t let a retailer tell you that they are humane!

Training humane is an art and Dennis Danskin has mastered that art.  He is the Las Vegas area’s humane dog trainer.  You can find out more about Dennis and his half-century of dedication to canines by visiting www.trainhumane.net.  Please reconsider that shock collar until you have called Dennis Danskin at (702) 327-4744.

Why Train at Home.

This could apply to humans as well as dogs.  Why should our four-legged children be trained by a professional in our own homes?  First things first, if your dog is trained away from home he or she may come to you “seemingly” fully trained only to regress when the surroundings change.  What good does that do?

Training at home with the guiding hand of a fifty-year professional is simply the right choice for Las Vegas residents.  Your new family addition becomes comfortable with its surroundings and you learn valuable techniques from the very best humane dog trainer in our area on what to do and NOT to do.

The right choice over and over again continues to be Dennis Danskin.  His website says it all at www.trainhumane.net.  Set up an environment that ensures your dog’s success by having them trained at home.  Please make an appointment to have Dennis come into your home anywhere in the Las Vegas Valley by giving him a call at (702) 327-4744.
