OBEDIENCE
                 

 

Is your pet very energetic or athletic?
Is your pet uncontrollable, being a nuisance, or just running amuck?
And are you at the end of your rope...

If so then enroll your pet in Brewer’s Dog Camp!

Thinking about a vacation??
Have your pet obedience trained and taken care of while you are gone,
for just about the same cost as for boarding your beloved pet.

Why take your healthy pet to a vet boarding facility only to contract a
germ or not see the light of day, when you can bring your healthy pet to 130 rolling acres.

All training is done with positive motivation and is taught by myself personally.

Enroll your pet in one of Brewer’s Summer Camp programs and know he is being well taken care
of and exercised daily. Your pet will have the time of his or her life!

Everything is included: Training food and lessons on how I taught him or her.

BASIC OBEDIENCE

All dogs need basic training.  Obedience training teaches the dog self control, confidence, and good manners.   Dogs want to please - proper training lets them know what is expected of them and what their boundaries are.  Time spent with your dog in obedience training creates an unbreakable bond that will guarantee you a happy loyal companion for life.

An untrained dog is not only a nuisance, but a risk to himself and his owner.   Training is an investment that will bring a lifetime of rewards.

Your dog should know the basic commands:  SIT, COME, DOWN, STAY

We will keep your dog three weeks in a comfortable country setting  and teach him these with loving care and positive reinforcement.   When  your pet returns we will show you how to work with him using these commands. Or, come train together in our fun classes.

My son, Joseph, has shown his love for  dog training  since birth. He has a talent all his own. He knows all aspects of the kennel; from how to handle pups, to handling any other breed that is brought here. He is going on to be a trainer at the young age of eight years old. Joseph and Fame are training for a SchH title next summer.

AGILITY

Agility training: $ 1200.00

Most owners who complete our agility course will receive an agility title.

Aggressive Training
During aggressive training, the dog's temperament is not altered in any way; but at the same time his attitudes will be changed. From the Confidence Course to the Personal Protection Course, the dog's suspicion level is raised and his confidence is increased. Even though your dog will still be a lovable family pet, his attitudes toward strangers (to what degree depends on what level of training he is enrolled in) will be different. Because of this factor you as the owner nust acept the added responsibility of being in control of your dog at all times.

*It is important to us that you feel comfortable handling your dog. After the initial In-Board training is completed, you are given a field training membership for six (6) weeks. This is required before completion of a protection program.

After the six (6) weeks there will be a $ 15.00 charge to work your dog, or a yearly rate of $ 1000.00 membership.

SCHUTZHUND

Schutzhund training in obedience, tracking and protection for sport and working dogs.

Schutzhund started at the beginning of this century as a test for working dogs. Its initial purpose was to determine which dogs could be used for breeding and which had true working ability. The growing demand for working dogs made more sophisticated tests and training necessary. These dogs were needed for police training, border patrol, customs, military and herding. As these tests evolved, more people participated just for the sheer enjoyment of seeing if their personal dogs could be trained as effectively as these "professional dogs". Now, over sixty years after the first formal Schutzhund rules were introduced, tens of thousands of people participate in the sport each year.

Schutzhund tests three specific areas of a dog's training and behavior. The first, tracking, requires the dog to track footsteps over mixed terrain, change direction and show absolute accuracy and commitment to finding the track. It must also find dropped articles and indicate their locations to the handler. Often this is done under less than ideal circumstances with difficult cover, bad weather conditions and an aged track.

The second phase is obedience. Those who are familiar with AKC obedience will feel more comfortable in this area, as many of the exercises are similar to those in Open and Utility. There is heeling, both on and off lead. The sit, down and stand are also done, except when the dog is moving. But Schutzhund applies its own style to this work. Instead of a forty foot ring, the handler and dog work on a soccer sized trial field. Some exercises require the dog to work under the noise of a firing gun. In addition to the normal dumbbell retrieval, the dog must retrieve over a one meter jump and a six foot wall.  Down stays and a long send away conclude the test.

Often people confuse Schutzhund protection training with police dog or personal protection work. Only the Schutzhund dog is capable of the feats of never being aggressive except under those specific situations it is trained to face, and even then it must always be under the absolute control of the handler.
