Weimaraner - Dog Training | Henry | Los Angeles, CA

Henry,​ a ​Weimaraner​ from ​Los Angeles​ CA., went through the Balanced Canine Training SoCal Two Week Board & Train dog training program. Henry was trained by ​dog trainer Wyatt Harris in Ontario, CA​.



Henry is an adventurous young pup joining us for the next 2 weeks for our board and train program. We are so excited to have him apart of our pack. He is a very intelligent boy who likes to use his strength and can be difficult to manage on the leash. He is going to be practicing lots of fundamental commands and improving some of his manners. He is eager to learn.

Henry out on our walk early this morning. We got a head start on our day and made it to a local park to start some training and beat the heat. Henry is responding well to his new E-Collar and definitely enjoyed all of the cardio today.

Henry out practicing heel a lot today. We did some exercises where we make constant turns around trees along with making random stops to teach Henry not to walk in front while on the leash.

Henry out this evening getting his walk on. We have been putting a lot of work into practicing how to heel. He is getting better every day at matching my pace and refraining from pulling.

After letting his nose heal for a day, with the help of some neosporin and aloe, here is an update on Henry's nose as of tonight. We did lots of place practice throughout the whole day. He is getting more confident in himself and trusting me more every day and it's showing by him jumping up on this bench to complete his place command.

It's taken 5 days to get Henry to really start to open up and trust me. He certainly is starting to warm up to me more which is making him much happier to complete his commands. It is also making it easier for me to clean his wounds now that he is starting to realize I want to help him and am his friend. He loves the pets. Smart boy can place up high on picnic tables now too!

Henry has needed quite a bit of tending to medically during his stay with me. He has very sensitive skin which is common for his breed so I have been taking extra care to not only treat his hot spot but to prevent any more from appearing. These are some of the products I've been using to help keep him clean and soothed. I also have hooked his kennel up with not one but two layers of cushion to help the soothing and heeling process due to the location of his hot spot on his leg , he lays on it while sleeping so the blankets help. I have also been preparing chicken for him daily as he isn't a fan of eating much of his dry food with out it.

Henry was a little grumpy this morning. He was not a huge fan of waking up at 5:30 am and getting right into duration down + distance training but he pushed through his lesson like a champ and ate his whole breakfast when we got home. His hot spot appears to be healing well as is the scab on his nose.

 

Pupdate 06/08/2020

One week into training, Henry is weighing in at 63lbs. He has been reluctant to finish his dry food without a little something extra in it so I have been adding things like chicken, rice and beef bone broth into his meals. His hot spot is healing well but he bonked the scab off his nose once again last night restarting the healing process for that. Neosporin has been his friend.

 

Pupdate 06/09/2020

Henry out on our walk today off leash. He is doing good with sticking close to me while we heel. Henry gets distracted by other dogs walking near him, so we have been practicing having him heel next to my puppy Kylo which is helping desensitize him.
