I get all sorts of dog personalities in for training. From Shy to Bold, dogs are unique individuals just like people. The type of dog you will have in front of you will be impacted by Genetics, Breeding, and Social Development.
To start dogs learning, I need to understand where the dog is coming from and teach within that scope of their personality. Is the dog scared and afraid to try or so bold and brassy you can't keep up with them? Sometimes it is easy because the dog is willing by nature to learn; Sometimes a bit harder because the dog has not learned how to learn as a puppy.
No matter what their personality, one thing that I have found to help most dogs is movement. Don't dogs love to run, jump and play? I incorporate activity to accelerate learning. Jumping helps motivate most dogs of any personality. It's Exciting and Fun! Getting emotions turned up to Happy, will get the dog doing better faster.
Want a Happy dog? Move with your dog by having them jump over something; You and your dog will have Happy Attitudes when training is playful and fun.
