Dog training: the process of teaching a dog (Canis lupus familiaris) to perform certain actions in response to certain commands which the dog is trained to understand. It is a general term which does not, by itself, describe what or how the dog is taught.

There are many methods of dog training and many objectives, from basic obedience training to specialized areas including law enforcement, military, search and rescue, hunting, working with livestock, assistance to people with disabilities, entertainment, dog sports and protecting people or property.

As pack animals, wild dogs have natural instincts that favor cooperation with their fellow dogs. Many domestic dogs, either through instinct or breeding, can correctly interpret and respond to signals given by a human handler.

Need help with Fitting and using a martingale dog training collar!?
Q. I have a martingale dog training collar for my dog, I got the right size and all, but I am not sure where it is to sit on the dogs neck and that kind of stuff so any help would be appreciated. the martingale dog raining collar I got has the partial chain on it, so does it matter where that DRing is for the leash to go on? Oike am I pulling to the side or straig twards me if the dog is on my left?

A. FIT: as close to the ears as U can get it. high and snug!! the collar slips over the dog's head, then is adjusted to fit - use the sliding-figure-8 to fit the collar. U are adjusting the collar so that there's MORE doubled-over collar, and LESS single-thickness collar. when properly fitted, the fabric-loop is FLAT, and the collar is HIGH and SNUG. no more than a Pinky-Tip (to first-joint) should slip between dog and collar, once it's fitted; U want it to STAY up there, not slither down the dog's neck toward their chest/shoulders. once the collar is snug, slide the fabric-loop to the back, so it's centered at the top of the dog's neck. now clip the leash on the metal D-ring. when the dog (or U) put tension on the leash, [cont.]
