One of the great things about running my website AmazingDogTrainingMan.com is that I get emails from people all over the world.
People write to say how much they love the site, to ask questions about training and behavior and to add input.
This week I received an email from Jacob who asked about what words a dog should understand.
That was a great question and got me thinking. I sat down and came up with a list of 17 words every dog should understand.
Here they are:
1. Name/attention/watch
2. Sit
3. Down
4. Stand
5. Stay
6. Come
7. Heel
8. Lets go
9. Wait
10. Drop it
11. Leave it
12. Off
13. Jump/Hup
14. Speak
15. Quiet
16. Back up
17. Break/okay – release word
In this week’s video newsletter I discuss these 17 words and demonstrate with one of my dogs.
If you own the Amazing Dog Training Man on-line Course all 17 words with explanations and video clips on how to teach each one are now up and on the website.
To watch this week’s video newsletter:
All the best,

What a beautiful Sunday we had here in Western, MA. The sun was shining, Rachael’s parents and grandmother came over for Mother’s day and. . .
. . . the Red Sox won!
Anyway, before Rach’s family got here, I sat outside and finished reading “Marley and Me.” Great book about a journalist who gets his first dog as an adult. Very successful book that was made into a movie a few years back.
I loved the part where they took Marley to an obedience class. Marley quickly made anyone who grabbed his leash look foolish. He dragged both of his owners around the class until finally the instructor took the leash and was almost pulled off her feet. I won’t ruin what happened next but it is a great read and I highly suggest it.
After reading about the obedience class, I went to Facebook and posted: Keep Reading…
