Tank is not always a Saint, but he's learning.

Tank is dog-reactive.  He and I recently started going to classes at a local training club.  Their methods focus on traditional training.  I haven't found an instructor...yet...that is very knowledgeable of clicker training.  Since I know Tank is reactive and huge, I use a Gentle Leader.  This is against policy at this club.  (A picture of a choke "show" collar is in the logo.)  It has been my intention to go to classes to have somewhere to train and a plan to focus on.  I didn't realize they would not let me use my own methods.

Hello. I have been a member of this site for a long time, and have read every article I can get my "paws" on.

I eventually want to be a professional dog trainer. I am only 26 at the moment, and I have been training as a hobby, (friends dogs, friend-of-a-friend's dog) now for several years. I do not charge as I do not feel I have enough experience.

I recently bought my first dog.
