Getting the Dog to Choose the Impulse That We Want – Stick With Me

Family Dog Training with Marmon Family Dog Training

At Marmon Family Dog Training, our goal is to provide personalized dog training to help you train your dog to become a loving and well-behaved member of your family. A well-trained dog brings immense value to your home, fostering a harmonious and enriching environment.

The Benefits of Having a Dog

A good dog can significantly enhance your family life. A 2015 study by the CDC found that growing up with a dog correlated with lower rates of depression and anxiety in children. Dogs can strengthen communication skills, teach important life lessons, and help children understand concepts such as empathy, boundaries, tolerance, and forgiveness. The literature and studies on the benefits of having a dog are extensive and compelling.

Your dog should complement your life, not complicate it. We are here to help you develop a healthy relationship with your dog that benefits the entire family. Our training programs are designed to teach you how to guide your dog towards making the right choices and developing good impulses.

Comprehensive Dog Training at Marmon Family Dog Training

Are you looking for reliable and effective dog training? At Marmon Family Dog Training, we pride ourselves on delivering outstanding results. With the widespread availability of smartphones, it’s easier than ever to compare dog trainers based on the evidence of their skills. Here’s why you should choose us:

Evidence-Based Training

Our results speak for themselves. Unlike other trainers, we do things differently. We invite you to compare our catalog of training successes with those of any other trainer. Witness the difference in our approach and the tangible results we achieve.

Importance of Recall Training

The recall command is one of the most crucial aspects of dog training. It showcases the dog’s understanding and responsiveness, as well as the handler’s ability to communicate effectively. Here are key points to consider when evaluating recall training:

  • Understanding: Does the dog comprehend the command when called?
  • Speed: Does the dog return to the handler promptly?
  • Consistency: Is the dog’s recall performance as fast as when they are chasing something?
  • Equipment: Is the dog dragging a long leash, and why?
  • Real-World Application: Does the recall begin from a stay position, and how does this apply in real-life scenarios?
  • Variety: Are there consistent examples of different breeds performing impressive recalls?

We encourage you to explore impressive recalls on other trainers’ pages and share them with us. We believe in giving credit where it’s due and learning from each other.

Why Choose Marmon Family Dog Training?

  • Proven Results: Our extensive catalog showcases the success stories of various breeds and training challenges.

Exploring the World with Nova: Cane Corso Puppy Training

Categories Dog Training for the Family Environment Author stlouisdogtraining

A Day in Training with Nova, the Cane Corso Puppy

Today, I’m excited to share a training session with Nova, a young Cane Corso. With all her shots done, Nova is ready for new adventures. For the next 20 weeks, we will expose her to different environments with consistent training patterns.

Creating a Strong Foundation

At Marmon Family Dog Training, we build a strong foundation for our dogs. For Nova, this means practicing key behaviors like laying by me, sitting by me, jumping on targets, and walking by my side. These positions help her feel secure and understand what’s expected in different settings.

The Importance of Early Socialization

Early socialization is crucial, especially for large breeds like the Cane Corso. Today, we took Nova to the park. She encountered new sights, sounds, and smells. By practicing “down” and recall commands, we reinforce her training and help her adapt to various stimuli.

Teaching Familiarity and Confidence

We teach Nova that the world is a familiar place where she can feel confident. Consistent exposure and practice of known behaviors make new experiences less overwhelming for her.

Engagement: The Key to Success

Engagement is at the heart of our training. For Nova, maintaining focus during exercises is vital. By seeking engagement at all times, we keep her attention on the behaviors we’ve worked on. This helps her understand and retain her training.

We use speed and interactive drills to make training fun. This approach makes sessions enjoyable and creates positive associations with training.

Building a Great Family Dog

Our goal is for Nova to become a well-behaved and balanced family dog. By instilling engagement and responsiveness, we lay the groundwork for a lifetime of good behavior. Whether it’s service dog training, basic obedience, or behavior training, engagement and practice are key.

Our journey with Nova is just beginning. We’re excited to see her grow into a confident, well-trained dog. At Marmon Family Dog Training, we believe every dog deserves a foundation built on trust, engagement, and consistent training. Stay tuned for more updates on Nova’s progress and tips on effective training practices.

Meet Rey, the star of out latest triumphs in dog training, Marmon Family Professional Dog Training

Meet Rey: The Star of Our Latest Training Triumphs!

Categories Dog Training for the Family Environment Author stlouisdogtraining

In the video showcasing Rey’s remarkable progress in retrieving a dropped leash, we witness firsthand the transformation from a tentative and uncertain dog to a confident and focused learner.

Rey’s journey began with us recognizing her initial apprehension and low motivation levels. We tailored our approach to channel her attention effectively, utilizing structured drills that engage her mind and foster a sense of security.

Our strategy includes integrating familiar training exercises into unfamiliar environments. This method not only challenges Rey but also desensitizes her to potential stressors, turning once intimidating stimuli into mere background noise. By exposing Rey to new settings and situations during our sessions, we’ve helped her build resilience and concentration.

Through consistent practice and positive reinforcement, Rey has shown tremendous improvement. She now demonstrates a keen ability to retrieve a dropped leash with confidence and precision, as showcased in the video.

At Marmon Family Dog Training, we’re dedicated to empowering dogs like Rey to overcome their challenges and thrive. Stay tuned for more updates on Rey’s journey and valuable insights into effective dog training techniques that promote confidence and trust.
