| Though I can not testify to the successes and progress of others, I can share what has worked for the Team and I. Going on the ideals and methods similar to that of Cesar Milan and other believers of the "pack" mentality, we have formed our family unit: a leader and three followers. I am a strong believer in that dogs, no matter how much we wish to envelope them in human culture, are from their own ancestry and not ours. Their rank and file, their form of communication, their comradery and sense of community, etc... All very different than ours. Though we can not learn their language nor can they learn ours, I believe it is imperative to find a medium to communicate by. Over time, trial and error, and lots of practice... We have developed our own simple (yet effective) form of communicating. Simple, single syllable words, hand gestures, and various whistles have made it possible for me to tell the team what I want of them, and vice verse. Has it taken time and patience in developing this language and trust? Absolutely. Is our success based on this time and patience and practice? Right Again. Will this be an on-going process that we will practice indefinitely? Yes, and something I commit to as a responsible dog owner (of ANY breed). To follow are the views of some notable trainers and techniques they use: |
NOTE- Always consult a professional trainer or behaviorist before beginning any training or rehabilitation regiment. |
Though an extreme situation, this video demonstrates the breed when not
properly socialized from an early age. Those who choose this breed
acknowledge a life- long commitment of regular exercise, constructive stimuli,
socialization, good diet, boundaries and disciple, and being included as part
of the family.
Without all these tools in place and practiced regularly, an owner (and those
around them) can expect incident.
With these tools, responsible owners can expect a very loving, gentle, and
social dog with other people and animals.

Today, more than ever, having a dog that is obedient and under control in public
situations is essential.
Out of control, crazy dogs present a bad image to the public.
Dog training is extremely important for Pit Bull owners and should not be taken for
granted.

The most troublesome and boring aspect of owning a pet pit bull according to
most owners is training. Though boring, early obedience training for pit bulls is
very essential, otherwise they may become disobedient and even aggressive. A
poorly bred pit bull is often a danger to the people around it. Also, it is necessary
to teach housebreaking to a pit bull when it is still a puppy.
