89x01 Meet Your Instructor: Brandon McMillan

  • 2020-07-30T04:00:00Z10m

Brandon McMillan is a master animal trainer and the Emmy-winning host of “Lucky Dog.” In his MasterClass, he’ll show you his simplified training system that will build trust and increase obedience and control with your dog.

Brandon discusses the key variables that make your dog unique: breed, age, history, and imprinted DNA. You’ll learn how to make important decisions based on your particular dog’s factors.

Brandon believes that trust is foundational. Discover how exercise, socialization, and leadership (rather than dominance) also set the stage for a healthy relationship with your dog.

Brandon introduces the 7 Common Commands and explains the simple principles you need to bring to each training session: mental preparation for yourself and control-train-treat for your dog.

Find out why you should pair verbal commands with hand signals and which commands use them. Learn basic leash and grip techniques.
