THE LEASH I USE AND RECOMMEND
The leash I use for training as well as walking with my dogs is a 6 ft cotton web lead. It’s easy on the hand yet allows for better control as it won’t slide through your hand the way a nylon leash would. I also use a 15ft lead for other training exercises. ATT: TRAINING CLIENTS – Make sure to get a 6 ft and a 15 ft leash/lead.
THE LEASH I USE FOR SMALL BREEDS AND YOUNG PUPPIES
A thin 6ft nylon leash is great for young pups and very small breed dogs.
THE COLLAR I USE AND RECOMMEND FOR MOST DOGS
I recommended Max & Neo material and chain collar because they are proportionately correct and available in sizes fitting extra small to large breed dogs.
THE ONLY PRONG COLLAR I USE AND RECOMMEND
FOR SPECIFIC SITUATIONS WHEN NEEDED
CLIENTS ARE TAUGHT THE PROPER USE FOR EASY, GENTLE TRAINING
I recommend this prong collar to training clients who tend to overcorrect their dogs. It is a better choice when used properly. The collar should never be fit to be smaller than the dog’s neck when in the closed position.
ATT: TRAINING CLIENTS – Make sure to order a size 25in (63cm) x 4mm DO NOT order the quick-release clip
REMOTE COLLAR I USE AND RECOMMEND PET TRAINER.
IT’S EASILY CHARGED AND HAS GOOD DISTANCE. I PREFER THE MATERIAL COLLAR. I NEVER use static shock to train a dog. However, the vibration works well to reinforce a specific element of the training that has already been learned. It can also be used as a distraction. There is NO shock button on the face of the remote, helping to prevent accidental shock.
I USE AND RECOMMEND BITTER APPLE
CHEWING AND BITING DETERRENT
All puppies chew and nip. Bitter Apple is a great deterrent if your puppy is chewing furniture, socks, shoes, or leash. Try a little bit on your hand to prevent nipping.
THE PLAYARD I RECOMMEND
I always highly recommend this playard. It provides safety and comfort for your puppy and is an alternative or preferably an addition to a crate. This playard has vertical bars only so that your puppy cannot easily climb out. It will help with housetraining as well as keeping your pup away from furniture and walls.
It can be arranged in different shapes, made larger or smaller, and stretches out to a straight gate across a room.
