Sequoyah
Shepherds
is now offering Comprehensive Dog Training
Sequoyah Shepherds is pleased to be offering a
comprehensive training program for both owners and their dogs.
Dog training is an crucial part of
owning and raising a dog. It is vastly recommended regardless of
your everyday life or the breed of your dog. Just as with any member
of your family, there must be rules and in order to follow the rules, you
must first KNOW the rules. Most dogs are more than happy to follow the
rules, but unfortunately, many dogs are never taught the rules.
Because of this failure, the number one reason most dogs are surrender to
Humane Societies and Rescues, is for behavioral problems.
Unfortunately, most issues are there because of a lack of
instructions on the "RULES". (Funny, that is the number one issue with
"problem" children too!) :-)
Here at Sequoyah, though we specialize
in German Shepherds, we also offer comprehensive training for other breeds
as well. We specialize in correcting undesirable behaviors
and training you to properly communicate with your pet. We prefer to
prevent problems though, if we can, so we offer training from the very
beginning. Often
professional dog obedience training is needed to correct a dog behavior or
train your dog a particular set of skills. Dog training is our
vocation. It is hassle free, affordable and professional.
We have a variety of trainers and are able to meet the needs of
various breeds by custom tailoring our training for each special individual.
Different dog breeds may well be in need of different training methods - For
example, you can't use the same training style on a shy Chihuahua that you
might use for an overly exuberant Labrador and expect the same results.
Sequoyah Shepherds was founded in 1997.
Since its founding, we have continually run into a need for quality dog
trainers. Over the years we have taken on individual training dogs
on a case by case basis. More recently, since beginning to compete more heavily
in dog competitions throughout the United States, we have encountered
more and more need for specialized training. Here at Sequoyah
Shepherds we specialize in obedience and personal protection training.
Though we are commonly thought of as ONLY German Shepherd trainers, we
do have several trainers that specialize in smaller dog breeds as well.
We are an organization of individual
trainers who are committed to helping you and your canine friend understand
each other better and thereby making both of your lives easier. Our
team is composed of trainers from across the spectrum of training
philosophies who have an interest in furthering their knowledge of positive
training. We have also acquired trainers in various parts of the
country for those of you who might not be local.
Our list of satisfied clients can be found
throughout the eastern United States. Our trainers include police
officers, competitive sports trainers, and veterinarians and we have
continued contact with other dog trainers, dog club members, humane society
personnel, service dog trainers and well known trainers throughout the
United States and abroad.

This course actually involves your dog doing a
residency with a certified trainer who will work one on one with
them. The trainer will teach all of the information that
they would normally learn in the above mentioned classes and
much more. Because the dog will be working one on one with
an experienced dog trainer, they will learn much faster and more
extensively usually than other dogs. After they have
finished their course, then the dog and the owner will be
trained together to ensure that they are both "speaking the same
language". This course will come with a total of (2) private follow-up lessons (if
needed) to keep both the owner and the dog
working well together.
