Pleasing 4 Pets

At his Off-Leash dog training school in Miami USA, Omar Muller has been training dogs to do much more than the typical, sit, stay and fetch routines taught at standard doggy discipline academies.

Omar has been training two of his star pupils to skateboard! Six year old Jack Russell, Auggie and his playmate Popeye, a year old American Bull Bulldog to kneel while skateboarding and flip their boards.

Auggie is so advanced at skateboarding that he is even able to judge when and how he should distribute his weight over the board to obtain maximum speed and balance.

Other pupils at the academy enjoy riding bicycles and scooters and perhaps the most extraordinary of all - riding a jet-ski.

The Hollywood canine coach trains his dogs on Miami’s world famous Venice Beach and claims that just about any dog has the ability to learn extreme sporting techniques with the right amount of training and time.

Omar also strongly believes in rewarding his pupils for learning new skills and shows them high levels of respect at all times.

He said :-

“You have to set a goal, but know it’s going to take at least a year.

Dogs also need a lot of treats and love while they’re learning so they’re having fun.

You don’t want the dog to get discouraged. He has to enjoy it so in the end he’s happy and wagging his tail while doing the tricks

“.

Britain’s Got Talents’ finalist Kate Nicholas and her fabulous disco dancing dog, Gin are scheduled to perform in Northampton this coming weekend.
