Product Information

Repeat the procedure of take it; food to the floor; *****; discs thrown; food and discs removed; ignore the dog, three or four times (more with some dogs). Eventually you should be able to leave the food on the floor and every attempt to approach it will be met with a slight ***** followed by the arrival of the discs if there is not an immediate reaction to the initial sound.

DOG TRAINING THE JOHN FISHER WAY presents a method of teaching dogs based on a more compassionate, rewards-based approach than older and more severe techniques. John Fisher is a British behavioralist specializing in canine psychology. In DOG TRAINING, Fisher's theories are presented so that viewers can get a better understanding of their dog's. Training can start by using a few treats and the disc. Use the disc like one of your dog’s toys. Get them excited to play with it. Then, do a “roll and retrieve”. This is where you roll the disc along the floor and cue your dog to bring it to you. Reward them when they’ve done it.

Confusion over dog training

Each and every disc dog competition will have its unique set of rules and guidelines. Needless to say, all participants should be able to adhere to the stipulated policy. If you make a kissy noise with your mouth as your dog approaches his dinner bowl, and the dog looks up at you or comes to you, that, is an interrupter. The result that you are looking for is that when you offer food with the command take it your dog will accept the food (sometimes you will have to encourage the dog that it is OK to take what is offered after the first few uses of the discs this is perfectly normal) But if you put food on the floor without saying anything then that is your food and your floor and if you want to put your food on the floor your dog has got no right to take it. If it tries there will be a reaction. Once they understand the principal they will immediately walk away when food is placed on the floor without you having to use the discs.

Handlers/owners should inform the judge on when they’re ready and behind the line via thumbs up. This has to be cued before their time starts

What can they be used for?

Andrea says, “Once your puppy is catching the close tosses, you can start to toss it a little farther. I recommend using the Around behavior discussed in the Flatwork section to send the puppy around you first, then toss so their momentum is headed in the direction of the throw. This will help to speed up the process of catching!”

Throwing the disc higher than the dog can catch it in time will encourage the aggressive dog to come to you. This will slow the dog’s reaction time and make him/her think about it, which will help prevent aggressive behavior. Another benefit of using discs is that it will help the dog develop a rhythm. You’ll improve your dog’s leaping ability by making sure that your dog places the discs consistently. Pet Corrector With our anti-chew product you simply spray on items such as skirting boards, furniture and their bedding to stop your dog from chewing them You’ve probably heard of dog training discs, but how do they actually work? The discs can be thrown to interrupt unwanted behavior. For example, when your dog jumps up, throw the disc at a distance and watch as he is startled. If he sits, he’ll be rewarded with a tasty titbit. Then, throw the disc at another distance to reinforce your desired behavior. Most rural dogs are not. So you might think your dog is bomb-proof to noises, but if a lorry suddenly applies air brakes next to him, he might jump. A dog can play at any age, but Martinez recommends waiting until they’re fully grown (between 12-18 months of age) before doing big jumps or playing a lot. This allows the growth plates on a dog’s long bones to close and they are less likely to injure themselves.While it’s valuable for our puppies to be socialized with other dogs, be strategic about when and how that happens. You can reward the puppy with 5 minutes of dog play AFTER they successfully engage in a 5 minute training session with you. This concept will transfer the value of the puppy romping to the work with you – that’s a pretty great reinforcer! For this reason, most dogs are not scared of the vacuum cleaner for example, or passing lorries, or the clattering of saucepans or a car door slamming.
