| Re: Recommend Dog Trainers You've named some of my favorites. I'm going to 'stick' this at the top of the forum.
I have a friend, V, who works with Pam Dennison. Several of her write ups I have placed as Stickeis at the top of this form.  |

| Re: Recommend Dog Trainers Thank you Shaina!
These links were very informative. I have two wonderful dogs who are a wee bit out of control at times. Have watched the Dog Whisperer and have gotten some good tips from him that don't include any adverse methods. The best has been to ignore the excited dog when we go out on the patio and magically they both calm down within moments. So I know these training tips will work. It me who is lax. I need to be more devoted to the training process. I thank you again............Carrie |

| Re: Recommend Dog Trainers Carriel,
Ceasar Millan the dog whisper isn't really a positive dog trainer, he backs kicks the dog, plays the apha role on the dog, and thinks you should never give the dog affection! I can go down the list of what he does that's not positive. Usually the dog appears frigthen, distressed towards him and often times he gets bitten |

| Re: Recommend Dog Trainers Hello,
I am an AKC Certified Obedience Dog Trainer, who specializes in Schutzhund and French Ring. I work with a world-class organization called. Steve Welch & Associates. www.SteveWelch.com. He has over 42 years of experience and has worked with thousands of dogs from family owned to city, county, state and federal governments and military. We like to use a FUN, FAIR and FIRM approach to working with dogs. Training with your dog should be like a game, where all parties are having fun. Your dogs should never be scared or frightened. |

| Re: Recommend Dog Trainers Thanks for your input. Just to calm any fears that Cesar has been the influence in my training of my two dogs, that isn't the case. However the tip that I gave for calming an excited dog really works. Just ignoring them for a few moments seems to calm them down and then we can have fun together. Our dogs are anything but fearful or frightened. More like happy with huge smiles and wagging tails is the case. However, I appreciate any input that can help with making living with them more pleasant. It isn't them that needs work but me! I need to spend more time with walking and training. It's really all about me, isn't it!?............Thanks......Carriel |

| Re: Recommend Dog Trainers I do have to agree SOME things he mentions are great tips espcially when meeting a strange dog "No Touch, No Speak, No Eye Contact" and it WORKS greatly, and the ignoring part has been used by other dog trainers etc So it semi old |

| Re: Recommend Dog Trainers Are any of these in the Southeastern Pennsylvania area (i.e., near Philadelphia)? I'm looking for someone to help with my 2 dogs -- one has become agressive toward the other. |
