Welcome to Weatherwax Trained Dogs and my blog page.
To start the conversation, let me say WELCOME ALL DOG
LOVERS. If we have nothing else in common, we have our
fascination, our love, and the best kind of addiction through
our appreciation for dogs. While my father, my uncles, and
I have trained dogs primarily for the entertainment industry,
in every case we were also training dogs to be true
companions – the ultimate expression of the human/animal
bond. The same training methods my father developed are
ones that can be applied to any companion dog who is
treated as a member of the family.
Sharing my own training knowledge and experience is
something I can offer to anyone with a question,
a comment, and a dog. That is my personal and
professional commitment to you through this website, this
blog, and eventually telephone consultations.
More than ever, American families have taken dogs into
their homes, making them real members of the household.
It may be hard to remember, but dogs aren’t born with
manners. Just as we send our children to school and to
play, we must also school and civilize our dogs. The
techniques I can suggest make active use of a dog’s
intelligence and teach dogs to fulfill their potential to be
responsive, alert, loyal companions.
So bring on your situations, your unusual circumstances,
even your basic questions. There is an answer to every
problem; sometimes the best way to start is to realize a
solution is right at hand. I’ve had experience with just about
every breed there is. We can talk about every purebred
from Anatolians to Yorkies and every combination of mutt.
We can talk about behavior, training, tricks, commands,
the use of the human voice, and the sensitivity of the hand
through the collar and leash.
I look forward to hearing from you. Consider the ball
rolled to you….
