Who’s King of the Hill?

Posted Sep. 6, 2008 | By Doug Poynter

Nowadays we hear all about being the leader of the pack as if this is new material! That concept has been around for quite a long time trust me on that! It’s just because it’s on TV quite a bit that everyone knows about it, but it’s not new.

The problem is not very many know how to tell you how to actually be the leader in your relationship with your dog…oh there are catch phrases and concepts but actual steps you can take are conveniently absent.

Well go here for some concrete info. A 3-part newsletter. Now it doesn’t cover everything, I’ll have something for you later that will do that. (I’ve been working real hard on that for you!) But it is a place for you to start.

Train On!

About

Doug Poynter has been training both people and dogs for over 25 years. Doug trains using the latest in positive, rewards-based dog training techniques. His unique way of connecting with both the dog and the human owner allows him to solve the "unsolvable" dog problems. In addition to safely rehabiltating dogs that others have deemed unsavable and untrainable, Doug successfully trains obedience and general good behavior allowing owners to truly enjoy their pet dogs.

"Doug is our trainer at Friends United with the Richmond Shelter. We have access to many trainers in our area and we want only Doug to work with our dogs! His method is unique and is so amazing! Doug is without a doubt the only trainer that I know of who can routinely solve the most difficult of behavior problems with telephone consultations! I've been amazed at the dogs he's saved consulting with our clients over the phone. Whether working with clients in person, on the phone or through his written training material, I strongly recommend that you work with Doug!"
