Why starting your dog’s training with “sit”, “stay”, etc. sets your dog up to FAIL

That’s because the science of animal behavior tells us that the best way to train dogs is by using body language and not verbal commands.

When dogs communicate with each other, they primarily use body language. They only use vocalization to make their body language more dramatic. It’s like when we humans put an exclamation point at the end of a sentence.

Dogs don’t understand English. So if we want to communicate with our dogs, we need to communicate with them using language THEY understand.

And the language they understand is body language.

Starting your dog’s training with verbal commands like “sit”, “stay” etc. is the #1 reason that a lot of “normal” dogs have behavioral issues like:

• Barking
• Having accidents in the house
• Pulling on their leash
• Not coming when called
• Jumping on people
• Not listening to you
• Chasing after other animals
• Chewing
• Nipping or Biting
• Food begging
• Getting over-excited
• Running away through the door, etc.

So if not “sit”, “stay” etc., what do service dog training pros actually use?

• They use commands based on body language, and not verbal commands.
• They use a principle from behavioral psychology called Operant Conditioning (don’t worry – it’s incredibly easy to learn this and we’ll show you how).
• And, they use a specific 6-step process that’s usually only known to people in the service dog training industry.
