The K9 Handler: Part Two

Problems, Pressure & Advanced Control

Author
Damien Draconum

Every real dog tests you. Here is how you answer.

Foundation obedience is where the work begins, not where it ends. Part Two covers the pressure that separates a controlled working dog from a well-behaved pet.

  • Adolescence, and the day the dog stops complying
  • Introducing correction fairly, and the e-collar as a complete, systematic program
  • Household and handling problems, fear, anxiety and reactivity
  • True aggression, with honest limits on what can be rehabilitated
  • Off-leash reliability, conditioning, and return to work after injury
