Dog Trainer to the Stars
Anyone who owns a dog probably has some problem they wish they could find a way to deal with.When we had our pit bull,Dozer,we found the most amazing dog trainer in the world.Some of you may have heard of him.His name is Matthew Margolis.
The man comes across as being a complete lunatic,but his methods WORK.Using his training tips,we had our stubborn,aggressive pit bull staying,walking on a leash without pulling,and heeling,all with about 15 minutes of work.
Matthew Margolis has a website(I don't have the link at the moment-you'll have to do a search-sorry),where you can find tips,information,and buy some of his books and videos.A lot of his books are available at public libraries as well, but I would recommend getting the videos,that way,you have the examples in front of you,of how to do the training tips the way he does them.That's how we trained Dozer.
The reason I'm putting this here is because in the past several weeks,I've had about a ton of people asking me how to train thier dogs.I mean everything from leash training,to keeping them off the couch.Neighbors, online friends, everyone, has been asking me where I learned to train.Well,what I know about dog behaviour,I learned from experience,and Uncle Matty.The guy is a total nutcase,but any man who can take a viscious dog,and have it laying in his lap 5 minutes later can't be all bad.
