PetLifeRadio.com - Episode 15 Mother May I

"Mother May I" is a game out of Sarah's book My Smart Puppy (written with her partner and husband, Brian Kilcommons) with the goal of teaching your dog to look to you whenever something tempting (or concerning) comes into view. Each piece of this game is taught separately but you can see the end result in the two video clips of Sarah working her rescue dog, Pip. This episode also includes a fun and creative trick that Shirley Minatelli taught her service dog, Xia. What a tidy pair these two are!

Teacher's Pet focuses on command training - and command training is as simple as (and as complicated as) communicating clearly with your dog. Dog's aren't born understanding what sit or come means. Every single thing your dog understands about a command - both the good and the not so good - he learned from a human, probably you! So, if your dog doesn’t obey as you would like, guess who has to change? You do - your dog can change but you have to change first. At Teacher’s Pet on Pet Life Radio, obedience training is something to do with your dog, not to your dog and it is fun for both ends of the leash so - give us a try!
