Children ages 7 to 9 are bitten by dogs more than any other segment of the population. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to teach them, as well as their parents, when it comes to training the family dog. Good Dog’s training program was designed by Family Paws Certified professional dog trainer Jenn Merritt, CPDT-KA, with children in mind. 58 of our training videos feature Jenn and our band of kid dog trainers. Each video has a matching training card and activity guide, sold separately.
Tellington TTouch is a type of touch used to activate neural pathways to the brain and increase learning potential in pets. The foundation of the TTouch method is based on circular movements of the fingers and hands all over the body. The intent of the TTouch is to activate the function of the cells and awaken cellular intelligence. This gentle method of touch is perfect to teach children and reinforces proper handling and interaction with pets. Our video library provides 24 Tellington TTouch videos with children and 8 without.
Part of Good Dog’s curriculum is designed for children ages 5 to 12. Each kid friendly, reward based training exercise has a matching printed card detailing the steps to make practicing fun and easy. Activity guides are available to reinforce responsible pet ownership, dog bite prevention, and humane education, with fun games and puzzles. All of our family friendly content is designed with parent supervision in mind. Get up to 40% off printed materials when you subscribe to the Good Dog Pro system.
Several of our videos show the proper use of reward based dog training tools that make training easier for clients. From harnesses to grooming tools to food dispensing toys, we’ll provide you with ideas to suggest to clients. But don’t send them to Petco! Sign up for our Good Dog Partner Program on our sister site, GoodDogInABox.com, and send clients there to purchase their tools. You’ll make a percentage of every sale.
