The stages in dog training

Stages in dog trainingTraining a dog takes time.

Sometimes it take a long time!

It often helps us achieve long term goals if we break the journey up.

No matter what skill you are teaching your dog,  the training process can be divided into five clear stages

The five stages in training

Find out what’s involved in each stage by checking out the articles below

  • Training Stage One: Establish the behaviour
  • Training Stage Two: Pair a signal with the behaviour
  • Training Stage Three: Teach the dog to respond to the signal
  • Training Stage Four: Proof the response against distractions
  • Training Stage Five: Maintain the response

Whether you are teaching  ‘SIT’,  ‘DOWN’, ‘HEEL’ or ‘RECALL’ you will still need to go through these stages.

Learn what’s involved and be a better trainer!
