I just receive my puppy and I would like to continue the brilliant education that the breeder has started to give him.

After some research I found on internet K9 Kennel Club. I went there ​​to get an opignon but I'm very disapointed of what I've found. This place is a veritable pound, it smell death, this is awful !! I very happy I haven't take my dog there. Unfortunatly there was nobody to help me, so they call someone that tell me it will cost 10 000 baht to teach my dog how to sit ... What he already knows how.

So I'm looking for a club or an association where I can train my dog near Pattaya. I'm not interested in circus tricks, I only want to exercise and socialise him. I heard about ring, I'm interested to know more about it. Moreover I think this is me that need to be teached about how to give good education to a dog.

What breed of dog is it?

I tried several dog training centers, even K9 offered us to have the dog for 6 months inthere and we could pick it up and it was a guard dog then, luckily i know better then that

Anyways, check Border Jack Resort out, been there several times for the dogpark and the doghotel, have also some training facilities and socialisation with other dogs.

Its a pitty you cant walk your dogs like in Europe and the States with all the soi dogs but this is a good alternative.

Have a look at the Plants/Pets....Forum. There is a pinned toplc on training with a wealth of posts with some very practical tips.

There is a lot to read through but it is well worth it.

My dog is a Beauceron also known as Berger de Beauce (sheepdog from Beauce) or Bas Rouge (red-stockings).

Thank you Juliusk for your comment, I went Border Jack Resort's website, it look nice event if this is pretty far I had trouble to locate it on the map. Maybe one day I'll try to go there.

I agree with you soi dogs is a real problem, there is really too much of them. Day time this is more or less OK but night time it's difficult.

However I went last day to the beach and all was OK.

Thank for the advice I'll have a look.

I hesitated a lot between the two section for my post.

On my first message I'm talking about "RING" but I just understand that this no meaning anything in English. I think the correct translation would be working dog that I think include agility, obedience ...

Yes, the 'tips' for training your dog which is pinned on the Thai Visa pets forum is very good.

I would not trust any professional dog trainer in Thailand. I too checked out K9 many years ago and was appalled by the treatment they give the dogs. I believe the Thais approach to dog training is by intimidation and inflicting pain.

I strongly suggest that you train the dog yourself, and save yourself a heap of money and your dog a lot of anguish.

I am a terrible dog trainer as I don;t have the patience , but I have managed to train my Golden retriever to obey basic commands like, 'Sit', 'come' and 'Stay', and the main thing is that she walks next to me quietly off the lead when we go for walk, and always comes when I call her and sits when I tell her to. That's enough for me.

I am currently trying to train a 2 year old Labrador by taking him for daily walks on a short lead, as explained in the pets training tips thread. Even after 3 days, there is a big difference. I reckon within a few weeks he will be responding well to basic commands..

There is also a lot of training info on the web which all follows a similar pattern.

Good luck.

You will receive a lot more helpful posts if this thread is transferred to the 'pets Forum'

Mod???

OK this has had a run in Pattaya and it looks as though you will get some good advice on doing it yourself in Pets and Vets forum so I will move it over there

If you have an hour every day to teach your dog its pretty easy, especially when they are young. Took me about 3 days before I got mine to sit then give their paw after that come here, stay, jump up etc. Just a handful of treats and a bit of time is all it needs. I gave up shortly after because they were constantly begging with tricks to get food lol

Thats one of the things I didnt teach him I have always taken them out without a lead so they end up doing what they like. Once we had the baby I didnt have much time to play tricks with them
