Houston Dog Training Facility, Shelmar Kennels, Adept at Problem Solving
Houston, Texas (Marketwire) May 26, 2010 – Many dog owners throw up their hands in despair when faced with bad behavior from the canine members of their family. Houston dog trainer Martin Bell, the owner of Shelmar Kennels, has a proven track record of turning disobedient, hyper and even aggressive dogs into well mannered pets.
Bell and his wife, Shelly, offer several training programs at their Katy facility. For dog owners who desire a well-behaved dog with proper house manners, Shelmar Kennels offers a six-week "in home" board and train dog obedience program. Dog obedience commands, crate training and socialization skills are taught and a proper schedule is implemented for potty training issues. Other dog behavior problems addressed include staying off furniture, waiting at the door to be invited in, learning how to relax with the family, and jumping on guests. At the completion of the session, the dog returns to the owner as a pleasant and well-trained member of the family.
One of the unique features of the training is that dogs work in group sessions with up to six other dogs, exercise and play with different but suitable groups of other canine students. Off leash control is of paramount importance to many dog owners who want to free exercise their pets and ensure safety in challenging situations and at dog parks.
"The reason our program is so successful is that the dogs have a schedule and are introduced into play groups to properly socialize them in a controlled environment," said Bell. "Over 90% of the problems these dogs have stem from improper socialization and miscommunication between dog and owner."
To ensure continuity from the training at Shelmar Kennels to the client’s home, the program includes three lessons for the owner. The first lesson takes place when the dog has completed the six-week session; another lesson is scheduled within 10 days to work on any new bad behaviors or answer any questions owners may have and the third lesson takes place two weeks later. The goal is to develop a positive pattern of behavior between dog and owner so that each can be happy and enjoy the other. The Bells have hundreds of success stories and happy clients.
