How to build up a unique relationship with your Shetland Sheepdog, using training methods which are tailor-made for your Shetland Sheepdog
Dog training is often ...
- ... Confused with classic basic training of puppies
- ... Considered only suitable for particularly gifted dogs
- ... Considered too difficult to achieve without experience
What constitutes dog training and why is it helpful? And how can you and your Shetland Sheepdog profit from the training, completely without experience?
Do you sometimes have the feeling that your dog has too much energy and does not feel fully stimulated, no matter how often you walk with him? Then dog training is the right thing for you. The simple but very effective methods of physical and mental training that you will read about in this guide will help you to stimulate your Shetland Sheepdog, in an appropriate way for his species, while at the same time having fun.
This is volume two of the Shetland Sheepdog training guides. Volume 1 for your Shetland Sheepdog puppy is also available with the title "Shetland Sheepdog Training: Dog Training for your Shetland Sheepdog puppy".
The author Claudia Kaiser says about her book:
"I love my dog and know how important it is to keep her occupied, even after she completed her basic training. Most dogs are not satisfied with their life as a family dog and can develop destructive characteristics. If owners would take the time to spend a few minutes every day, carrying out physical and mental training with their dogs, their situations would change dramatically. Many underestimate the potential of dog training and how it can positively change life with their dogs."
Read about background information, read experience reports and obtain step-by-step instructions and secret tips which are tailor-made for your Shetland Sheepdog.

Claudia Kaiser lives with her husband and dogs Danny (2 years old) and Daika (8 years old), in an old farmhouse in beautiful Rhineland, Germany. At first only as a dog owner, but later and after 20 years actively training dogs, she has gained a lot of experience, helping other people to train their dogs. She formed the idea of writing this book in order to reach more people, than she could have in the local dog training schools and the small circle of dog owners to whom she gave personal coaching. The publishing of this guide book is the fruit of considerable research, writing and editing. It is designed to be a guide for all budding puppy owners, to help them get the difficult task of training right the first time, and to avoid those mistakes, which Claudia herself made at the beginning. She worked through her own bad experiences over the years, so that the reader does not have to. Those who follow the tips and tricks covered in this guidebook are sure to have many years of pleasure from these unusual and wonderful companions.

Preface
Congratulations, you probably made the excellent choice of welcoming a Shetland Sheepdog into your life some time ago. You have also recently chosen to buy this guidebook. I would say, you have already made two good decisions.
Your Shetland Sheepdog belongs to one of the most outstanding breeds of dog and he deserves to be challenged and supported his whole life long. Only a fully engaged dog leads a really happy and balanced life.
Before you read the next pages, you should know what to expect. This guidebook will not show you any shortcuts to success. Most importantly, reading this book alone will not change anything. Your success depends solely on you.
This guidebook will show you why it is important not to finish the training at the end of puppy school. It will show you how you can train and develop your adult dog his whole life long. Just like humans, dogs continue to develop if we give them the opportunity.
This guidebook will introduce you to many methods which you can carry out by yourself, without help from the dog school. You only need the will and possibly a few utensils for support. It is very simple and practical for everyone. However, I would like to add at this point, that particularly less experienced owners might want to consider an accompanying training at a dog school.
My question to you is now: Are you prepared to invest a few minutes each day – and I mean EVERY day – to make your dog's life more interesting and challenging?
If the answer is yes, then you have made an excellent choice, buying this book. Since you have made the third good choice, you are now ready to read the following pages.
It is very important to me that you are successful in your training. Because of that I would like to mention: Reading this book cannot replace the close working relationship with a personal dog trainer. Dog training relies on a certain amount of finesse. If this is your first dog or if you have a very challenging one, that could have behavioural issues, I recommend taking on board a dog trainer. You will learn a great deal from this book but there is one thing which I cannot offer: That a professional will be watching you during training and is able to give you tips on how you can do it better. Often, you will not notice that something is not quite right.
For everyone else, particularly for experienced owners who are looking for new inspiration, I have no concerns about recommending this book to you without dog school or trainer.
From my heart, I wish you both much success and good luck.
- Chapter 1 -
What is dog training?
I assume that, because you have bought this book, you will have been thinking about what dog training is. Usually, people think of two concepts. On the one hand, there is the basic training of the dog, obeying commands such as sit
, lie down
and leave
. On the other hand, many people associate dog training with a strict, regular training scheme, carried out at a dog school, with a certificate at the end to prove it.
Of course, both variations fall under the category dog training
, but for me it means something different. Firstly, for me, comes the basic training or puppy training and then the full training. But this is not all there is to know. At some point, your Shetland Sheepdog will no longer be a puppy and hopefully has mastered his basic training, but not every dog receives further training after that. Not every dog needs it and not every owner has the time or the inclination to do that.
It is more important that there should be a middle way. This is what I call dog training. You may be asking yourself how this dog training, as I call it, is different from the other forms.
Contrary to the basic training, which mostly takes place at puppy age, this training is
