Do you need a license to train basic dog obedience skills in Utah? I’m 14 and I love, i mean I absolutely LOVE, to work with dogs and train them.
Thing is, I want to earn money to adopt this dog, she herself is free but my parents don’t have the money but say if they did we would take her in. I need a way to earn money and dog training popped into my head at once.
The only problem is:
Do I need a license to teach basic dog obedience?
If so how do I get one?
If not, do you have any business names?
I need something along the lines of… Well anything that goes with training dogs. I want it to be some thing that will catch their eyes though, not just "anna’s dog obedience classes…"
I’m going to do one on one training with the dog also, so…
If you think I should not do this or I am legally, to young to achieve this, what else could I do?
I can’t walk dogs because everyone around here just lets their dogs roam loose anyways so it would make no difference.
THANK YOU =)

I’m currently 19 and a sophomore in college (just transferred to another college). I have a dog but he doesn’t live with me. I was planning on having him live with me next year.

Last night my parents told me that if I take him with me before I’m at least a Senior in college, that I better get my own place and my own health insurance. They are afraid that having a dog will close me off from some opportunities, and disallow me from having friends/lasting friendships.

I don’t even know how to react. The decision they’re really making me make is "who do you love more". It’s a no brainer, I want my dog, and he doesn’t make me choose, however I can’t manage my own health insurance, especially since I have a narrowing esophagus, and am going to need procedures to scope it out and fix it.

I know that my parents aren’t bluffing, and I already have permission from the lady currently keeping my dog that he can stay there until I take him. I just don’t know what other options I have or what I can do, and I can’t believe that my parents would use health insurance as a bargaining chip.

I’m really just looking for feedback, ideas, and any inspirational/motivational things that might help me feel better.

I plan to see how my first semester goes, and re-talk to my parents after to try to change their minds. It seems impossible right now.
Cistes: I was at a very large university, but still maintained above a C average for grades. I’m transferring to a smaller school, which is where I thrive, yet they are doubting me before I’ve even started classes there.
I Don’t Bark: I’m majoring in animal science with a minor in music. I plan to own and operate my own dog training facility, and I already have a job close to my hometown once I get out of school and am certified.
Regal Thai: I live at school, not at home. It sounded like you were saying I live at home.

There are books, TV shows, professional trainers, veterinarians, friends, family, the internet, pet store employees, etc.. List the top 3 places you get the most of your dog training information from.
AND which source you most respect (i.e. whose advice do you actually use).

Can anyone able to suggest me some of the websites for dog training and also give me some of the tips for dog training…

I was wondering if I should, cause to me it seems like if i had specific commands to give to him, then it would be easier to control him in any given situation.

BQ: If I put him through obedience training and attack training, will they negatively effect or offset each other? Is attack dog training basically obedience training with an edge?

A dog we wanted to adopt from the Humane Association is now on medical hold because of kennel cough (with a low grade fever). We would like to be educated as to whether or not we’ll be adopting a dog that can hopefully be healthy in the long term. My aunt has a lot of experience in dog training, and she says we absolutely shouldn’t get this dog–that dogs with kennel cough always have long-term respiratory problems, forever. This doesn’t seem to be in agreement with the research I have done. I was wondering what your thoughts are. He is also pretty thin. I have seen worse, but you can see his ribs at the moment. He may have been abused. Yet, he is sweet and friendly with people and other dogs, though seems a bit more subdued than one would expect of a dog his age (of course, he could’ve been sick when we observed this). Looking forward to your thoughts.
I appreciate the wonderful responses so far! Keep ‘em coming! I just want to reiterate that the dog did have a low grade fever. I don’t know if that means it’s more serious than a "common cold" or not?

Hi,

I am a new dog owner. The name of my dog is "Tunnu" and he is not behaving very well as of now. He bites our bed sheets and tears them off .. will bark in the mid night to spoil our sleep. I am looking for some good dog training ebooks which can teach me how to make the dog understand my commands and other things like shake hand and jumps etc.

Any help will be appreciated.

I’ve made progress with my dog training this evening. I got him to lay down. Twice. And he is finally going outside when I tell him to instead of pouncing on me. Yes!

Anyways, I’ve read (or maybe seen on a show) once that strips of meat work better when training a dog than biscuits. Is this true?

Thanks in advance!

Progress! !!!
Thank you all very, very much! I’ll definitely take these with me next time that I go to town!
