Dog Training
Review
Is it possible to train my dog myself,
without
hiring an expensive personal dog trainer?
The answer is surprisingly Yes,
but a few warnings apply.
In a nutshell, "Train Your Dog Yourself"
courses are now ubiquitous, and while some packages are
amazingly effective, others are just short of being
outright scams.
Caveat Emptor:
Do NOT waste your time,
money and energy
on Dog Training scams or bad products!
You will be amazed
at what an effective
dog training
course can do to your dog. No
matter if large or small, a puppy or old
- there are a few courses out there that can really
help you
train your do.
These Effective products will:
-
Teach you to
train your dog in a matter of days.
-
Teach
general obedience training and help you obtain Alpha status
with your dog.
-
Help you solve
specific problems that bother you, such as potty training,
biting, chewing, etc.
-
Offer tips &
tricks for various situations (dog with children, with other
dogs, in heat, etc.)
-
Be fun for both
you and your dog.
-
Bond you and
your dog better.
-
Use humane methods only!
-
Offer a true
money back guarantee.
However,
Bad products
frequently:
-
Produce little progress.
-
Are misguiding, and teach your dog wrong habits.
-
Are either
too general without addressing specific problems,
or
too specific without installing Alpha status.
-
Are badly
produced, difficult to use, boring for both you and your
dog.
-
Take your money
and practice time, leaving you feeling like a fool and your
dog frustrated and intimidated.
-
Some
courses use inhumane methods to train your dog.
The problem is that
sifting the good from the bad is difficult, as even awful products
may come wrapped in shiny, tempting web sites. For many products,
the only way to find out that they are scams is to fall into them.
To help you find your way through the market, the ReviewsNest
team of experts with the help of several vets and
dog trainers, performed hands-on tests of
most dog training courses currently on offer. We also
contacted some of the people behind the products, to assess our
findings better. The following web pages provide in-depth reviews of
the five top-rated dog training courses,
followed by a summary comparing these products to each other, along
with our conclusions.

In addition,
most other dog
training courses and sites in
the market were reviewed, but did not make the cut. To avoid
data overkill (and legal issues from sore losers), the also-rans
and scams are not listed here. You may of course try other
products, but we strongly advise you to be very cautious
in doing so. Your chances of unknowingly falling upon a bad
product or a scam and wasting your time, energy,
money while irritating your dog and
teaching it bad habits are enormous.
