It can be overwhelming when your dog doesn’t behave the way you want. After all, how hard can dog training be?
As in all things in life, dog training requires initial learning and effort and then the ongoing application and reinforcement of that training. At The Dog Stop we say, ‘use it or lose it’. After completing basic training, we offer social obedience and agility training classes. Sign up for one or both and continue in all facets of life … rules are rules whether at home or in class. Behaviour is learned and will fade if not applied consistently and continuously.
And just like you do with your kids, it’s all about positive reinforcement when they do it correctly regardless of how many times they have to try. Growing together is one of the greatest experiences you can have with your dog. But hey, we’re dog people and that’s what we live for!
