Which Dog Training Collar Should You Choose?



Recommended Answer:
My Dog used to be the same way I have a lab/retriever mix. he used to jump up at people when they came in the house and he was always running around all over the place.
Below are some tips that you can try , this is what I did to get my doggy to be a little more calm.

First of all one of the best way's to get your doggy to be less hyper is to make sure he/she gets plenty of exercise. I started off by taking Rupert on walks twice a day for about 25- 30 minutes each walk.

Also Taking your doggy to a park and playing a game like fetch or Frisbee helps to get your dog a little tired this way they are a little more easy to manage , if your doggy doesn't know how to play any of those games just try running around with him/her for a little while

Next you can try teaching your doggy some commands like “SIT” or “DOWN” show him/her several times in repetition that you want them to lie down and relax. When doing this its always best to reward your doggy with a treat and lots of praise so he/she will get the idea and associate it with a calm and non hyper mood.

Hope this helps I tried this on my doggy Rupert for about 2 month's (he's a slow learner) and he eventually caught on and now he's no wear near as hyper and he doesn't jump on people any more.

Dog Training Tips For Hard-To-Train Dogs


  • Lots of exercise and training every day will help. Sign up for a beginning obedience class to help you get started on training. When your dog is greeting people, have her on a leash and step on the middle of it so that the dog cannot succeed in jumping. Have everyone ignore her when she tries to jump. As soon as she stops trying, praise her, and give her a treat.

  • Lots of exercise on the leash every morning. Training all day long. A hyper dog has to learn self control in short bursts, but many repetitions.
    Place on a sit or down stay for gradually more prolonged times. Reward these quiet times. I worked on a hyper Lab (not mine only had her a week). She did not know how to relax, switch gears if you will. We had her sit/stay for meals. It was a great time for brushing out her winter coat, so that was a daily relaxer as well. She got a massage at bedtime to get her to relax and not pace at night. We did more leash walks and less fetch to encourage control rather than chaos. Her owner says she is not the same, more relaxed than before.
    I had a week with a 5 year old. A puppy will need more time and practice.
