Review of Dove Cresswell’s Dog Training Online
30 Oct 2009
If you want to use a really good dog training video program, how can you know which is the best? I have checked out several dog training video programs, and my favorite is Dove Cresswell’s Dog and Puppy Training Online. Dove is an expert dog trainer who is famous as a “trainer to the stars”. You know that Dove is excellent at getting dogs to perform tricks, or the movies and television shows wouldn’t be asking her to train the dogs on their productions. After teaching dogs in the movies to do all kinds of crazy stunts, it is pretty easy for Dove to show us how to obedience train our dogs.
The video training is broken up into 7 different, easy to follow modules (there is no book, just use the down-loadable videos for each step of the training process). I think the video training works best for those of us who learn better from watching and listening rather than just from reading. The order of training sensibly starts with house training new puppies. After potty training, the next lesson will cover teaching your young puppy his first obedience exercises. By learning the right way to get started early with training your puppy, you will develop an important bond between the two of you-which helps your puppy be able to grow into the great pet that you always wanted.
Dove’s video module follow the natural sequence that puppies grow through on their way to maturity, and teaches the exercises in an the appropriate order when your dog becomes ready for them. Dove’s technique uses only positive training techniques-no need for yelling at or hitting your dog. You will see that by using the cheerful and upbeat style that Dove teaches,the training becomes a lot fun for both you and your dog. If you make the training sessions fun for your dog, I guarantee you he will learn his exercises much faster. When you reach the end of Dove’s program, your dog will already know how to do even advanced tricks.
Watching and listening to Dove teaches you the exact right vocal tones to use and the correct attitude and body language you need to have in order to best communicate with your dog on a level that he can understand. Dove teaches you enough about dog psychology to let you use this for better understanding your dog’s point of view. By learning this information, you will be enabled to become a better trainer for your dog, and eliminate dog training mistakes that only delay getting the results you want.
Just like people, some dogs will learn to do something differently than others.You will learn a few different methods of training for the various exercises, just in case your dog doesn’t respond readily to the first recommended technique for a particular exercise.
Dove also offers some cool bonus material in addition to the main 7 video modules of her program. Just in case you have any questions about training your dog, Dove also offers free email consultations so she can give you expert advice on solving your pet’s particular issues.
Included with Dove’s dog Training Online, you also get some fun eBooks for teaching even more advanced tricks to your dog. The bonus eBooks include:
1. The first of the bonuses is an eBook teaching you the best way to get your dog to fetch.
2. The second bonus is an eBook on playing Soccer with your dog. My own dog loves Soccer-and has become a formidable goalie.
3. The 3rd bonus is an eBook about playing “Hide’N’Seek”- with your dog.
4. The fourth bonus is an eBook about Dog Sports-these organized dog sporting events are becoming very popular with dog owners.
5. The 5th bonus is a valuable eBook about earning your dog’s respect (becoming the Alpha dog)-which is very necessary in order to get better training results.
6. This bonus features a report about what dog is good for your pet. Find out about the poor nutrition and lack of health benefits most commercial dog foods have.
7. The 7th bonus reports on the very best kinds of toys for your doggy.
Dove is so sure that you will love her video training program that she has offered a 60 day complete guarantee if you are not completely happy with the product.
If you are someone who learns best by listening and watching, I recommend strongly you give Dove’s video training program a try. Go ahead and check out Dove Cresswell’s Dog Training Online, and see for yourself how easy it can be to get great results obedience training your own dog at home.
