We are going to give your labrador 100% of your undivided attention, in a four-minute exercise, which will be exercising the dominant and submissive nature of your pet’s personality.
These “natures of your dogs personality” are easily found through the positions and postures in relationship to your, as you and your dog perform your labrador training routines.
Each position will show particular types of body language from your dog (and vice versa, so act natural). If you pay attention, you can see how well or not your dog is relating to you.
Each exercise or command in the following text will articulate what must be paid attention to, and how to make this knowledge work for you and your dog. We have special routines to break stress and tension, as well as methods to express dominance and elicit strict, exacting, discipline.
You will develop a feel for these as you progress through this system. Any time you are in doubt about what your next move should be, just relax, take your time to mentally review the exercise you are performing, and then execute the correct move.
Everything has a particular progression.
Although this is, admittedly, a very complicated system, there’s absolutely no need to worry about mastering the technique and psychology involved.
It will become very clear as you begin to work on it.
Just as we will expect your dog to learn something new with practice, you too, will develop a sense for what we are doing, but only with practice.
You’ll develop a “feel” or “sense” for what we’re doing. The pieces fit together, like a jig-saw puzzle, and, like a jig-saw puzzle, you start by dumping the whole thing out in front of you and then try to put it in some sort of order. Think of our method like that puzzle.
And just so it doesn’t come as a surprise, things change here, according to what has been mastered.
