Many owners struggle with their dog's behavior. They may even call their dog "terrible". However the truth is, behavior serves a need in your dog. Understanding that need & how to work with your dog to fulfill it in a positive manner can lead to massive behavioral change. A dog is not a dog is not a dog; they are all individuals & can not be judged against previous experiences with other dogs. Learning about the dog in front of you, helps to equip you with the knowledge for an improved relationship!

Punishment is a hot button topic in the dog training industry. However the way trainers & owners tend to use it in a very emotional context which creates a very inconsistent & confusing message to the dog. Learn WHAT punishment & how to use it effectively, more importantly humanely when training your dog.

Dog owners often time think in terms of how their dog's behavior is affecting their lifestyle without consideration of how they are affecting their dog's lifestyle. We take a hard look at why we as humans invite dogs into our lives to begin with & how we need to readjust our thinking of "ownership" to that of a relationship.

So often we hear owners say, "but he was fine..." right before a bite occurs. Or that the general history of the dog's behavior previously was "fine". Just because your dog is quiet, does not mean they are emotionally comfortable. Not being able to spot the subtle signs of being quiet & stressed can trigger aggressive behavior responses from your dog.

So you've had dogs "your whole life"... you don't understand why this particular dog is causing you to struggle. Let's break down the reality of this common misconception & truly focus on the sample size of dog ownership you have actually experienced.
