00:00:54.080 --> 00:00:54.880
In

5
00:00:55.440 --> 00:00:59.380
1934 obedience training for all breeds became a reality

6
00:00:59.380 --> 00:01:07.360
Today there are hundreds of training classes where owners learn how to teach their dogs the simple and humane methods of obedience training

7
00:01:11.280 --> 00:01:12.780
And today

8
00:01:12.780 --> 00:01:15.420
Thousands of dogs are competing at dog shows

9
00:01:15.940 --> 00:01:18.300
broken Kennel Club titles of CD

10
00:01:19.280 --> 00:01:22.560
CDX and UD a

11
00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:24.980
Well-behaved dog is always admired

12
00:01:27.860 --> 00:01:28.460
And

13
00:01:28.460 --> 00:01:34.540
The fact that certificates for conduct now play an important part in the dog world has caused people to ask

14
00:01:35.060 --> 00:01:37.060
How can I train my dog?

15
00:01:37.860 --> 00:01:41.040
They have come to realize it is not only training the dog

16
00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:48.700
But training the owner to trainees dog that achieves the best results and makes for a better understanding between dog and master

17
00:01:52.000 --> 00:02:00.180
Simple obedience is healing and sitting coming when called lying down and staying upon command

18
00:02:03.580 --> 00:02:11.240
This is basic training and miss Blanche Saunders our instructor will explain the preliminaries and give us the first lessons

19
00:02:12.740 --> 00:02:13.500
A

20
00:02:13.500 --> 00:02:17.820
Dog learns obedience through the chain-caller a plain one not a spike

21
00:02:21.400 --> 00:02:21.920
In

22
00:02:21.920 --> 00:02:29.060
Making the collar there's a right and a wrong way to put it on so please listen carefully a

23
00:02:29.060 --> 00:02:30.700
Dog heels on the left side

24
00:02:32.120 --> 00:02:38.400
When he is in that position the lead fastens to the end of the chain which passes over the neck

25
00:02:41.620 --> 00:02:47.800
This is wrong since it passes under and the collar will not loosen when the lead is made slack

26
00:02:50.820 --> 00:02:51.460
but

27
00:02:51.460 --> 00:02:55.580
If on the right way it automatically loosens after each correction

28
00:02:57.020 --> 00:03:00.420
Check your collar every time this is how it should look

29
00:03:03.600 --> 00:03:09.740
The lead should be a foot longer than the trainer is tall and a good flat leather with a strong snap

30
00:03:13.260 --> 00:03:16.660
Most beginners hold their lead this way don't do it

31
00:03:20.000 --> 00:03:21.740
Instead do this

32
00:03:25.740 --> 00:03:27.820
Here it is again

33
00:03:32.680 --> 00:03:42.040
From now on both hands are used the right hand holds the lead the left hand plays it out takes it in

34
00:03:42.620 --> 00:03:46.300
Makes the corrections and pats the dog encouragingly

35
00:03:47.820 --> 00:03:51.340
So there are two things we must always check before we start training

36
00:03:53.180 --> 00:03:55.340
See that we are holding the lead the right way

37
00:04:00.960 --> 00:04:03.680
And see that the collar is on correctly

38
00:04:07.260 --> 00:04:15.100
A dog learns by feeling the unpleasant jerk on his collar if it is not on the right way the results will be poor

39
00:04:15.860 --> 00:04:19.060
The dog will not respond to the trainers commands

40
00:04:27.140 --> 00:04:36.900
Obedience training begins with play the dog must be kept happy you ready for work

41
00:04:36.900 --> 00:04:42.400
Hi Jason next get his attention and keep it through the entire training period

42
00:04:42.400 --> 00:04:45.920
He should be alert and watchful of his trainer at all times

43
00:04:46.700 --> 00:04:50.020
The first thing he actually learns is the meaning of the word heel

44
00:04:50.020 --> 00:04:54.340
Which is to stay on the left side with his head as close as possible to the left knee

45
00:04:59.020 --> 00:05:03.800
This Saunders gives the lead a jerk as she steps forward and commands Jason heel

46
00:05:05.120 --> 00:05:09.220
If the dog lags she pats her side to speed him up

47
00:05:10.240 --> 00:05:16.860
If he goes ahead she slows up gives the lead a backward jerk and is more demanding Jason heel

48
00:05:19.560 --> 00:05:25.660
The trainer watches her dog she makes the left turn by lifting the right knee hitting the dog's neck and chest

49
00:05:32.000 --> 00:05:36.760
In the right turn she makes a sharp right angle turn and jerks the lead to the right

50
00:05:36.760 --> 00:05:44.220
After she has made the turn herself all corrections are made by snapping the lead then loosening it at once

51
00:05:45.620 --> 00:05:50.740
With small dogs the inside of the right foot is used to push them around on the left turn

52
00:05:50.740 --> 00:05:57.640
When properly done the dog blames himself for bumping into the trainer instead of blaming the trainer for stepping into him

53
00:06:06.090 --> 00:06:11.670
If while healing he sneaks in on the wrong side a quick but careful kick backward

54
00:06:11.670 --> 00:06:14.130
With the right foot is the correction

55
00:06:14.830 --> 00:06:21.010
A lead that drags on the ground gets in the way of trainer and dog it indicates sloppy handling

56
00:06:21.010 --> 00:06:27.570
When held too tight the result is a steady pull on the dog and there is no room for that important snap

57
00:06:27.570 --> 00:06:27.670
The trainer is able to make the right turn and the left turn is a good way to get the right foot

58
00:06:30.910 --> 00:06:33.390
There are three different about turns

59
00:06:33.390 --> 00:06:39.090
In the right about the trainer turns to the right the dog is kept on the outside

60
00:06:39.090 --> 00:06:45.810
In the left u-turn the trainer turns to the left and the dog is pushed around to the left

61
00:06:50.250 --> 00:06:55.330
But in the left about the trainer turns to the left and the dog turns to the right

62
00:06:55.330 --> 00:06:59.390
While the lead is passed in back of the trainer from one hand to the other

63
00:07:03.370 --> 00:07:11.170
A zigzag across the training yard is good healing practice with a three-quarter turn to the right and then a three-quarter turn to the left

64
00:07:17.350 --> 00:07:23.850
When a slow running pace is alternated with a slow walk the dog must always heal close to the trainer's side

65
00:07:23.850 --> 00:07:27.710
With lead slack no matter how fast or slowly she moves

66
00:07:34.030 --> 00:07:37.230
Another excellent practice is the continuous circling to the right

67
00:07:37.230 --> 00:07:43.770
Where the dog is kept on the outside and the continuous circling to the left where the lead holds the dog back when he goes ahead

68
00:07:50.350 --> 00:07:54.210
This circling helps prepare for the figure eight at obedience trials

69
00:07:54.210 --> 00:08:00.690
Where he again heals close to the trainer's side and pays no attention to the people he circles around

70
00:08:09.050 --> 00:08:10.850
Whoa what if we hear

71
00:08:10.850 --> 00:08:13.750
He looks like a fish I tried to land last summer

72
00:08:13.750 --> 00:08:13.990
Summer

73
00:08:19.470 --> 00:08:22.390
Come on come on good boy, that's it

74
00:08:25.530 --> 00:08:27.830
A little coaxing does the trick

75
00:08:32.590 --> 00:08:39.750
A dog should heal cheerfully and willingly a happy response is proof that one has that trainer personality

76
00:08:47.110 --> 00:08:53.350
Teaching a dog to sit is easy pull up with one hand push down with the other command sit

77
00:08:56.730 --> 00:09:02.790
Miss Saunders repeats this over and over

78
00:09:04.550 --> 00:09:10.790
Finally the dog understands the meaning of the word and sits without having to be pushed down

79
00:09:11.830 --> 00:09:12.350
Sit

80
00:09:19.170 --> 00:09:19.690
Sit

81
00:09:19.690 --> 00:09:23.270
When he uses you as a leaning post the correction is simple

82
00:09:26.690 --> 00:09:30.610
Often a poor sit is not the dog's fault

83
00:09:34.290 --> 00:09:39.170
Can you blame him for healing wide and now having to be coaxed to sit close

84
00:09:41.970 --> 00:09:42.650
Sit

85
00:09:42.650 --> 00:09:44.630
You can improve on that sit Jerry

86
00:09:48.490 --> 00:09:55.070
Here's the correction the lead held very short in the right hand gives better control over the dog

87
00:09:56.090 --> 00:09:58.610
Come on come on

88
00:10:01.850 --> 00:10:06.670
The left leg stretched across in front blocks him from going ahead

89
00:10:14.070 --> 00:10:14.630
And

90
00:10:14.630 --> 00:10:20.130
Now halt you will have more luck margaret if you don't pull his tail

91
00:10:23.950 --> 00:10:25.630
Try it again

92
00:10:30.390 --> 00:10:30.950
That's better

93
00:10:32.630 --> 00:10:35.210
A dog should sit the moment you halt

94
00:10:35.890 --> 00:10:37.210
Close to his trainer

95
00:10:37.870 --> 00:10:40.270
Square and facing straight ahead

96
00:10:49.530 --> 00:10:57.810
In the come for the dog learns to sit in front of his trainer the trainer walks forward and then backward the dog does the turning

97
00:11:00.390 --> 00:11:03.070
The command just to come forward

98
00:11:07.210 --> 00:11:11.530
The opposite of this is teaching the dog to go to heel from the come for position

99
00:11:15.710 --> 00:11:19.930
The trainer walks backward and then forward and the dog swings around into place

100
00:11:22.430 --> 00:11:25.370
Half a heel the lead is always slack

101
00:11:27.630 --> 00:11:29.530
Fewer steps are taken each time

102
00:11:34.550 --> 00:11:35.250
The

103
00:11:35.250 --> 00:11:41.050
Dog soon learns to go around by himself and only the command is given jason heel

104
00:11:44.930 --> 00:11:50.330
These two exercises should be practiced together first heel position

105
00:11:54.150 --> 00:11:55.770
Then come forward

106
00:11:59.570 --> 00:12:03.350
The hands and the way they control the lead mean a lot to the dog

107
00:12:18.210 --> 00:12:24.610
Dropping your left hand in front of the dog's back leg will teach him to stand or you can grasp him around the muzzle

108
00:12:29.710 --> 00:12:34.330
The command is always given stand stand

109
00:12:42.790 --> 00:12:49.110
Stand oh, oh, here's our little scotty friend

110
00:12:54.570 --> 00:12:59.510
Well, that's one way of teaching him and I must say it's much easier on the back

111
00:13:04.090 --> 00:13:04.970
Stand

112
00:13:05.930 --> 00:13:08.350
Dropping the left arm down

113
00:13:08.350 --> 00:13:15.730
Palm back is the stand signal and the dog should obey whenever this signal is given

114
00:13:16.490 --> 00:13:18.490
Just to stand stay

115
00:13:25.130 --> 00:13:26.590
What a good boy

116
00:13:28.470 --> 00:13:32.270
The sit and stay is another important part of a dog's training stay

117
00:13:37.830 --> 00:13:38.270
Day

118
00:13:41.670 --> 00:13:45.790
Miss Saunders holds him by the muzzle so he cannot turn when she walks in back of him

119
00:13:51.110 --> 00:13:51.550
Day

120
00:13:57.650 --> 00:14:00.270
Holding the leash above his head is done for the same reason

121
00:14:03.090 --> 00:14:03.530
Day

122
00:14:06.190 --> 00:14:12.910
The dog is given more freedom with the lead dropped on the ground she can step on it and jerk him back if he breaks

123
00:14:19.530 --> 00:14:20.410
Good boy

124
00:14:24.170 --> 00:14:31.570
When a correction is necessary she makes it with a quick snap of the lead then waits for him should he repeat his act

125
00:14:34.470 --> 00:14:34.990
Stay

126
00:14:36.870 --> 00:14:42.210
Stay when the lead is taken off. He must stay where he has been left

127
00:14:44.890 --> 00:14:48.250
The tone of voice is more severe this time

128
00:14:49.270 --> 00:14:50.390
Now you stay

129
00:14:51.230 --> 00:14:51.710
There

130
00:15:02.930 --> 00:15:06.030
The dog may at any time turn his head to watch his trainer

131
00:15:06.030 --> 00:15:12.670
And he will if his attention is where it should be but he must never break the set by turning his body

132
00:15:23.470 --> 00:15:29.390
Sit and stay as he becomes more and more steady the distance is increased

133
00:15:40.270 --> 00:15:42.990
Finally the test becomes even more difficult

134
00:15:47.030 --> 00:15:47.630
To

135
00:15:47.630 --> 00:15:51.210
Will I or won't I no better not

136
00:15:52.690 --> 00:15:58.070
I am so happy to see you but won't break until you give me permission

137
00:16:00.850 --> 00:16:02.950
And I have been such a good boy
