German Shepherd Training
Michael’s Pack is proud to offer German Shepherd training in New Jersey and New York. Read more about this popular dog breed and the services we offer.
German Shepherds are one of the most popular dog breeds in the United States, often ranking within the top five of popularity rankings. Anyone who has spent even a little bit of time with a German Shepherd can see why they are so well loved. German Shepherds are well known for their strength, intelligence, trainability, and obedience. They are full of energy and love to play. They are a popular family dog and tend to be very protective of their owners.
Is it Hard to Train a German Shepherd?
German Shepherds are one of the easiest dog breeds to train. Even adult German Shepherds can learn very quickly, as they are uniquely intelligent and responsive to repetition training. Starting their training as a puppy is recommended, but while other dogs can be difficult to train as adults, German Shepherds are able to pick up tasks very quickly even in their older years.
Positive Reinforcement German Shepherd Training
At Michael’s Pack, we believe that positive reinforcement training is the only way to properly train an animal and that negative reinforcement techniques only serve to harm the relationship between you and your dog. We strongly believe that “Communication is Key” and that the training process should strengthen the relationship between you and your pet by building mutual respect and trust. The results we have seen over the years prove that positive reinforcement methods are the only way to get long lasting results from training.
At Home German Shepherd Training Services
At Michael’s Pack, we work with dogs and their owners to correct behavioral issues and build a strong, healthy relationship based on communication and mutual respect. The following are some of the services we offer to our New York and New Jersey clients. We are happy to address any specialized needs you may have.
