All the training in
the world on basic commands is no good if the dog
has other bad manners. It is not uncommon to
hear people say the dogs works great in class but
is a bozo at home or vice versa. Does the
trainer address this issue and trouble shoot ways
to improve the daily life with your dog? Will the
trainer address good doggy manners as well as
commands? There is so much to consider when
choosing an obedience/manners program for you and
you canine companion!
The type of trainer
you pick will be very important is helping you
develop a good, solid working bond with your dog
or puppy. The trainer who uses all force and
harsh corrections should be avoided.
The
goal of training is not to force a dog to learn
but rather to make him want to learn and bond with
you. There is no one perfect way to train
all dogs as dogs are individuals. What works
for most of the class may not work for your dog.
A good instructor will know this and find the best
way to help you and your dog.
