Reviewing SitStayFetch

The SitStayFetch dog training program covers much more than most other dog training programs as supported by the following review by Denise Duncan

Reviewing the Sit Stay Fetch Dog Training Program

What is Sit Stay Fetch? Is it a good dog training program. What features does this program offer? These and other questions will be answered in the following article.

One of the more popular dog training programs is called SitStayFetch. Though it is popular, is it one of the best programs for training your dog? Is it really useful to the average new dog owner who would like to train his new pet?

Owning a new dog means greater responsibility to teach and train him, especially since most new owners get puppies. Training a new puppy takes time and know-how. Most new dog owners just settle for teaching their new puppy to “sit” even though there are numerous dog training programs available to give instruction and guidance on what and how to train a dog. Often, these dog owners will look for a dog training program only after their yard or furniture has been destroyed and they are seeking immediate help and want immediate results.

With proper dog training, plants and furniture can be saved and also a strong bond is created between dog owners and their pets. Well trained dogs are a joy to be around and they are happier and feel less anxiety in their new home.

The author of SitStay, Daniel Stevens, has created what he feels is a very thorough program for dog training. His program includes a range of command training, how to deal with dog behavior problems, and also teachings about dog grooming.

Beyond the basic “sit” command, SitStayFetch includes training for many other commands such as stay, roll over, fetch, heel, no, wait, crawl, jump, down, shake, and catch. As you can see, these commands range from basic and advanced commands. He outlines in very clear terms how to train your dog with simple and consistent command training. Many have found the instructions easy to understand and follow in trying to train their pet by themselves.

As stated above, SitStayFetch also gives instruction on how to train dogs that have acquired some bad habits. The program covers behaviors such as digging holes, chewing, and other destructive habits, emotional issues such as separation anxiety and jealousy, and also aggressive behaviors such as biting, nipping and fighting with other dogs. The SitStayFetch program also has limited consultation included if your dog problem is not sufficiently addressed which is a great plus.

Due to the popularity of Cesar Millan’s book, dog whispering is a term that has become well known among dog owners. As you might suspect, the SitStayFetch program is up to speed with this current approach to dog training as well. Other bonuses are included with the program. You’ll find good information and instruction on dog grooming, alpha dominance, and housetraining for a more complete dog training and dog care program.

The Sit Stay Fetch dog training program is very comprehensive and easy to follow. It is well worth the money to purchase SitStayFetch especially if you are a new dog owner. The time, money, and patience you put into training your new pet will be worth the it to have a trusted and well trained companion for life.

Sit Stay Fetch and Puppy Mouthing

Sit Stay Fetch helps you undersatnd and deal with puppy mouthing

How Do You Train A Dog - Stop A Puppy From Mouthing

Has your puppy ever chewed your arms or your children’s arm? and regularly?

You may think it is just a game, but to your puppy - he just wants your attention. Well this type of “mouthing” is not only a game for your puppy, but it is one of the testing behaviors which could lead to a very serious behavior problem in the future.

Testing behavior is a behavior puppies learn between 3-8 weeks old.

These behaviors such as growling, wrestling, chasing and biting each other, help them to find their position among their group. They soon learn which of their brothers and sisters they can push around and who they should respect.

That’s why your puppy does this to you or your children as he views you all as his pack.

So if you ignore this behavior, your puppy will think he is the pack leader - and aggressive problems will develop when your puppy is fully developed.

The best way stop this testing behavior is - stop them and ‘growl’ at them every time they chew on their mother’s legs.

Even the most dominant puppy in the pack will soon learn that the mother is the undisputed pack leader and “growling” means stop.

This also applies when your puppy chew or mouth at you or your family member, stop him immediately by ‘growling’ at him. The tone of the growl should be low and deep, so it sounds like the way the mother growl.

The key point here is to use the same tone every time your puppy mouths.

Growl when you puppy is about to do one of the testing behaviors or when he is doing it. If you growl to your puppy ten seconds after he has done it, it is too late to correct. So timing is the secret of success.

Tackle this testing behavior early and soon your dog will learn that you are the leader of the house.

Sit Stay Fetch, is it worth it?

Do we get our money’s worth with the dog training guide SitStayFetch?

Sitstayfetch, Really Worth The Price?

As I sat down to write this review of SitStayFetch I started thinking about how I got to the point that I needed a book on how to train dogs. It all started when I got married, now you see I like dogs well almost all animals actually but my wife is a dog fanatic. She absolutely loves dogs, her brother once said she’s step over a dieing person to pet a dog. Though that’s not entirely true it’s pretty close. For those of you that are dog (or pet) lovers I’m sure you understand.

Because my wife goes nuts (ok�::maybe just moderately crazy) whenever we see a stray dog on the side of the road or someone calls and tells her they have a puppy or dog that needs help, I end up with another mouth to feed. Now please don’t take this the wrong way, I love my wife and I certainly like the dogs that show up but some of them aren’t always the best behaved.

So over the years we’ve had to do the best we could when it can to working with the dog’s we brought into our home, sometimes we have been successful others�::well we did the best we could. My wife has taken some of them to obedience training, we’ve tried just about every method there is for dog obedience training and read literally hundreds of books on how to train your dog and we can never really tell how the dog will turn out.

A friend told me about SitStayFetch, she told me it was one of the best book she had ever read on dog obedience training. Let me tell you, the information in Sit Stay Fetch is priceless, the methods of training have made a huge difference in the behavior of the dogs that are now with us.

If you are like us your dog is more like a family member than a pet. It can be very frustrating for both our dogs and me when we can’t get on the same page SitStayFetch has changed all that. Here is just a sample of some of the behavioral problems included:

Aggression
Thieving
Biting and nipping
Coprophagia (poop eating)
Destructive behavior
Digging holes
Cat chaser
Car chaser
Disobedience
Nuisance Barking

Daniel Stevens has also added a section in SitStayFetch the covers common health issues for you dog.

Fleas & ticks
Bad breath
Worms
Flatulence
Heart worms

Here are a few of the Dog Obedience Training and tricks explained in SitStayFetch.

Come
Roll over
Seek (find)
Beg
Sit
Stay
Fetch
Heel
and many many more.

My experience with SitStayFetch has been remarkable. I’ve learned more in just a few days than I have in all the time I’ve had dogs. As soon as I started applying the dog training techniques in SitStayFetch I had great results.

We currently have 5 dogs and I need all the help I can get, SitStayFetch is that help. SitStayFetch works great with puppies as well, one of my wife’s co-workers picked up and abandoned pit bull puppy that was about 7 weeks old and brought it to my wife. Gabby is now one of the best behaved dogs you will ever find.

If you’re having behavioral problems with your dog then you owe it to not only yourself but also your dog to read SitStayFetch.

If you just want to learn how to teach your dog simple tricks SitStayFetch will work well, but after applying the training techniques and tips you’ll be amazed at how much more your dog can do.

Stop Dog Biting with Sit Stay Fetch

Sit Stay Fetch Dog Training by Daniel Stevens helps you understand and deal with dog biting as reflected in this article by George Kane

How To Stop Dog Biting

Dog biting is the most serious dog behavior problem because of it’s possibility for very serious damage being done to people. Because of this it’s of incredible importance to make sure that your dog does not bite.

It’s important to start early. A dog learns most of it’s habits in it’s first four months of life. In these first four months it must learn how to hold back its biting instinct. Usually, puppies are taken away from their family so most of them are no longer taught by their mother dogs. So you have to be your puppies’ “Mother Dog.”

Depriving your dogs of the potential learning experiences they get from rolling, tumbling and playing with other puppies can be harmful. During play puppies are naturally biting one another anytime and anywhere. Out of that play, dogs can feel the effects of being bitten; henceforth, their biting instinct can gradually be inhibited. Interaction with other puppies must be freely given. Natural inhibition from biting can occur better without human intervention. Biting inhibition is best acquired by dogs out of natural experience.

Socialize your dogs with fellow dogs and other human beings in order for them to outgrow their fear of other animals and people. Take note if your dog is not socialized it is much more restless and distructive in the home.

Lack of socialization is the top reason why dogs bite. If the dogs are not socialized with children then a dog may not know how to react to the way children interact with dogs. Thus, while your pets are still in their puppy stages; introduce them to your kids and have your children befriend them.

Teach your dog to trust and respect you and your household members. Kicking, hitting, slapping the dog will erode the dogs’ trust in you as their masters. Nurture the trust and respect that a dog gives you. Once you are subjecting your dog to a rigid training, never scold or punish them about their mistakes and misconducts because the fault does not lie in them and they do not understand yelling.

Teaching the dog to bite an enemy who has illegally entered your residence can be possible if you give your dog friendly training through treats. Your command must be easily picked up by the dog. Its good conduct must immediately be rewarded.

A well trained dog can be a very effective house guard.

Prevent Dog Bites - Sit Stay Fetch

Nancy Settecasi writes on how to prevent dog bites , and so does the sit stay fetch review

Dog Biting: How to Deal With and Prevent Dog Bites

Learn what to do if a dog is ready to attack you or if your dog has a history of attacking other dogs or people. This behavior should not be tolerated.

alt=”Dog Biting: How to Deal With and Prevent Dog Bites” />
Enlarge Image

Dog biting is a serious matter. If your dog bites someone, you are responsible for his behavior. There are many things you can do to keep your dog from biting.

  • It is recommended that you introduce your dog to everything he may encounter before he is 6 months old. He should be socialized with other dogs, as well as people. He should also be introduced to different environments and be taught to deal with different situations, such as going to the vet.
  • It’s not a good idea to play fight or play tug-of-war with your dog. Aggression on your part will lead to aggression on his part. If you want to train him to be a guard dog, there are more effective training methods.
  • When trying to discipline your dog, it must be a group effort. Everyone residing in the household should know the training techniques to follow in order to maintain consistency. If everyone does not participate in this joint venture, the effort is hopeless. Consistency is key in training against dog biting.
  • Spaying or neutering your dog can also reduce the probability of your dog biting.

If your dog is extremely aggressive, it is recommended that you hire an obedience trainer. NEVER send your dog out to be trained. Not all trainers are reputable. I had a friend who hired a trainer to come to her home to help her discipline her Rottweiler. When the dog snapped at the trainer, he gave the dog a swift kick in the ribs which made the dog yelp. He did this right in front of the owner. She didn’t react because she didn’t know what she should expect of a trainer. If he had the ordacity to do this in front of the owner, imagine what he would have done behind her back. Needless to say, the dog had broken ribs, my friend was out $300 and her dog problem was never resolved.

Be sure that when you hire a trainer, he or she will train your dog in your own home. If he is taught at a location other than your home, he will associate his good behavior with that location. A good trainer will involve you in the training process and have you perform the commands along side him.

How to avoid dog biting

  • Never trust a dog you don’t know, no matter how friendly he may seem.
  • Never run away from a dog. This will instigate a chase. If a dog has you cornered, stay perfectly still and avoid dead eye contact.
  • Never attempt to take a bone or chew toy away from a dog.
  • Never try to break up a dog fight by separating them with your hands. You can try squirting them with a hose or water in a spray bottle.
  • Never touch a dog’s food while he’s eating.
  • Stay away from chained dogs. They often feel resentment for being tied up and may attempt to attack.
  • Make him comfortable with the grooming process at an early age.

If a dog is ready to attack

  • Never run away. Stay still and remain quiet.
  • Don’t make any sudden movements with your hands. The dog will acknowledge this as a threat.
  • Avoid eye contact.
  • The dog will eventually let down his guard and back off.
  • At this point, you can slowly move away from the situation.

If you are being attacked

  • Try to use anything in your possession as a barrier between you and the dog. You can use your sweater, a shopping bag, your pocketbook, a backpack, your shoe, etc.
  • While you are creating this barrier, try to back yourself up into a safe area. A safe area could consist of climbing onto the hood or roof of a car, entering a gated area or climbing onto the kitchen table.

What to do if bitten by a dog

  • Wash the wound with soap and water.
  • Disinfect the wound with hydrogen peroxide or alcohol and cover it with a bandage.
  • See a doctor or go to the hospital within 24 hours of the initial bite. If the dog broke skin, you will probably need a Tetnus shot. You may also need to take antibiotics to ward off infection. A dog bite can develop into something quite serious if it is not properly treated within the first 24 hours.
  • Report the bite to your local animal control center.

Remember, dog biting is a serious issue that involves serious consequences for both you and your dog. Don’t let ignorance place you in a position of having to get rid of your dog or worse, having him put to sleep.
