Sit is probably the easiest trick to teach your dog. Most dogs who only know a handful of tricks know how to sit.

Sitting can help you to introduce your dog to another person or animal without your pet getting too excited and unruly.

Getting something done without your dog at your heels helps you to complete the task and resume playing with your dog.

Fetch is a fun trick for your dog to learn, for both you and your pet. Tossing an item for the dog to retrieve allows the two of you to bond. It will also provide exercise for the dog. This can be used as more than a game if you can teach your pooch to fetch the newspaper or your slippers.

Shake is a social trick that makes others feel welcome in the presence of the dog. Many people shake hands upon seeing each other. Having your dog shake a friend’s hand is a gentlemanly gesture. It is also a fun trick to watch.

Play dead is one of the oldest tricks to teach a dog. It can be a difficult one though. Patience is needed to teach this command. It generally follows sit and stay, which is probably one reason it is so difficult. It requires attention and knowledge from the dog in order to follow all three commands.

Since it was founded in 1903, Ford Motor Company has gone on to make quite a name for itself in the automotive world. That equates directly to many people owning Ford vehicles that are constantly on the road. In fact, five of Ford’s vehicles ranked at number one in their categories and 14 vehicles ranked in the top three of their categories, which clearly demonstrates the company’s popularity. Professionals with Ford knowledge are required to service this large variety of cars that is doing so well on the market. Now, you can join a long history of greatness at Ford with Ford Technician Training at Centennial College.

In order to be considered for admission into the Automotive Service Technician Ford Company of Canada program, Centennial College expects students to present at minimum an Ontario Secondary School Diploma or a General Education Diploma or equivalent. A Ford Motor Company of Canada Ltd. Dealership must also employ the applicant. Please note that candidates may apply directly to Centennial College for this ford technician training. Successful applicants must obtain an employer and then register as a MAP apprentice with the Apprenticeship Branch of the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities. Acceptance is based on successful completion of all entry requirements. Limited space is available in each program.

Perhaps, Peter Lokun, Professor, General Motors of Canada – ASEP summed up the benefits of this unique undertaking when he said, “Students learn a set of skills and theories at the College. They then get a chance to practice these tasks in the real environment.” To further expand on the professor’s thoughts, consider that students alternate between Centennial College and an employer for 64 weeks (32 weeks in each).

During the in-school sessions of the Ford technician training, students study out of state-of-the-art facilities at the province’s largest transportation training centre. This aspect of the program allows them to use Ford models and tools to become familiar with the latest technology being offered by Ford, with an emphasis on electronics, transmission, engines, air conditioning, supplemental restraint systems and the diagnosing of vehicle management systems. Also covered are Ford specialties that, in the past, students had to attend Ford school to obtain. These specialties are: engines, electrical, brakes and climate control. The in-school sessions at Centennial College are actually more in-depth than traditional apprenticeships.

When training to become a Ford technician, students also spend time at a Ford dealership, working alongside professionals who help to ensure that they are prepared for the workforce upon graduation. During their session with an employer, students actually receive compensation. This earn-while-you-learn approach is especially ideal for those apprentices with families. In addition, students may be eligible for employment insurance during the in-class training.

Leash training, like any other training, a cat will require the proper tools, research, patience and practice. Cats are smart and sensitive which you will never want to use force or physical threats on a cat. Any of the force behaviors that you use on the cat will only result in a cat fearing you.

You will be the one that will have to change the behavior in Good words used, the cat’s name, and the behavior the cat is doing. Like tabby, you are not to do that climbing on the table. Treats are another way of showing your cat for good behavior. Use small treats; you do not want them to have a full meal when training them. Later after the good behavior is recognized, you will be able to phase the treats so that you do not have to use them any more.

Treats should be just that treats. Never use the cat’s dinner food for treats. Use good healthy treats in small portions. Do not give large amounts, as this is a treat and not the dinner.

Training your cat to be on a leash or wear a collar can take time. This time should be set a side to do the training. Do not ever start training a cat for a behavior and stop. If you ever want to start, again, the cat can become confused and very stressful. If the cat gets sick or an illness, this it self will be stressful on a cat and you will have to stop the training. At this time, you will want to get the cat to the vet.

After the sickness or illness, is taken care of, you can continue the training, also during this time you will want to gently and carefully want to maintain the step of training your cat is at. This will reinforce the training that you have done and can continue.

Next, you will want to seek out good equipment for the leash training of the cat. Looking at the equipment, you will want to keep in mind that a cat’s neck is thin-skinned. Harness are great for walking cats, keeping your cat safe, trying to get away, and much more comfortable to the cat. A light short leash would be perfect for walking. Do not get a long one, as you will want the cat close to you for danger is near. In addition, you are walking the cat the cat is not walking you.

You will need to work with your cat once you get the harness, so that the cat will be happy with it on. Use steps in doing this like, let the cat look it over to get their scent on it, after that apply the harness on carefully and remove it. Do this until the cat is comfortable with the harness on in the house. Do not take the cat outside to do this. Your cat will try to get away and with being outside you have no borders for the cat to stay in.

Once you have accomplished those steps, and the cat is happy with the harness then start with the leash. Walk the cat in side before trying outdoors. Once you see that cat is happy with this step, now is the final training.

Take the cat outside and do walking in the yard until you and the cat feel comfortable. Make sure the cat is walking with you and you are not pulling the cat with the leash. You cat at first will be distracted with many things that the outside world has to offer.

Training your cat on a leash has advantages not only for walking but also for other trainings. Taking your cat to a vet, instead of the carrier, you might try the leash once the cat is comfortable with using the leash.

Reward your cat each step of the way, and happy trails to you and your cat.
