Default fast dog training?

We have a 10 month old dobie/rott mix girl. She is awesome. But she has NO respect at all, when she runs after the kids she knocks them down, same with anyone who comes in our door. She is starting to be a safety hazard. She is fixed with tons of love and attn. Camping season is here and we need something fast to train her, pet stores said it would take a while for her to start learning. We have has her since 3 weeks old. She was easy going, now she rules us. Any suggestions would be great, or any great working training methods..Thanks.. No rude commets please...Yes, she is spayed and all shots. Please do not base this on her breed. She's awesome!!

We used a service called "bark Busters" My dog was listening within minutes of the guy coming to our house. Good luck. I hope that they have one in your area

There is no fast training but first you have to find a way to show her you are the boss. That can be done with minor corrections in most cases but you have to be consistant if she jumps up choose a word like "off" and ignore her or place her on the floor if she is on you reward her when she gets off for a while. Do not give her affection when she is behaving poorly make her wait for affection until she is calm and don't let anyone in the household do it either it encourages whatever behavior came before and if that is jumping or pushing someone over she will think that is a good thing

Unfortunately, there is no way to speed through dog training. It sounds like she has taken the role of the leader in the house and you need to take that role back. Try talking to her in a stern assertive voice when she does something you don't like. Don't yell and become excited because that will make her even more excited. I used treats as a way to modify my Jack Russell Terrier's behaviour. When he would sit quietly when someone came to my door I would reward him with a treat. You should try it and see if it works for you like it did for me.

10 months old so now you have a teenage dog who thinks it's the size of that 3 week old pup you brought home she will not know her own size or strength, will just be a bundle of enthusiasm and playfulness!As others have said, training won't happen over night, but I do recommend a training method called "Clicker training". There are loads of good websites and trainers who use this but here is one website for you with tonnes of info: http://www.clickertraining.com/or you can buy a clicker and basic training book or dvd from the http://www.cleanrun.com website - the direct link to the product I'm thinking of comes with cuecards for 10 simple tricks plus a clicker the link is: http://www.cleanrun.com/index.cfm?fu...ntCat=162There are loads of web sites as I said - and online communities for people who clicker train all sorts of animals, here is one for people who clicker train dogs, that has loads of information, video links, and community forums for discussions with other trainers, new & professional: http://www.clickertrainusa.com/Best Wishes - with patience and consistence your almost teenage puppy will do anything for a "click"& reward!!Once you get the hang of what clicker training is (very straight forward it is, so don't worry) you can begin to "shape" new tricks, or behaviours quite quickly, some within minutes!! They use clicker training for all animals, domestic or wild and it works so well and really fast!!Have fun with your pup - and training can be loads of fun too!
