Do You Need Dog Training Tools When You Train Your Dog?

Recommended Answer:
I would start of with an example of what can happen when a dog is not trained, tragic stories are usually best. When they hear what terrible things can happen they they will be interested in what they can do to prevent it.

Bad Dog Training Tricks - How to Correct Bad Dog Behavior

• Just bring a trained dog and demonstrate. You'll have their attention.


• "Do you have an uncontrollable dog? Then watch me demonstrate how to fix it"


• Come in on all fours and bark like a chihuahua.


• if you have one of those dog biting training tools that you wear on your forearm, then you can have a dog run from off stage or into the room, depending on your circumstance, and grab hold to your arm under a suit or sweat shirt...This will get peoples attention. I suggest that you began speaking then have it occur! Be dynamic and do it in short burst of ideas.
