The Unconventional Dog Trainer

The Unconventional Dog Trainer

If the usual advice just isn't working for you, then why not give this a go?After a decade helping owners with difficult dogs, I found that just because "EvErYoNe" says so, doesn't necessarily mean it works like that. Plus, I created a monster. My first Malinois became the most entitled and selfish dog I'd ever had (great dog though). I realised that that wasn't the relationship I wanted with a dog. And I got this from following the popular training advice. I wanted a dog who wanted to work with me. I finally got that with my 5th Malinois, Raven, and I've never looked back!So I started testing. Everything.And after extensive testing, I'm sharing my findings here! But, before we dive in, always remember: "Every dog is different" so don't take my word for it, TEST IT! And see if your dog responds to a different way of training!Happy TrainingLuzelle the Unconventional Dog Trainer
