Would you like your dog to walk politely on a loose leash? To come when called? To stop raiding your kitchen counters for food? Need help with potty training your puppy? Or maybe you'd like advice before you adopt a dog?
Training is a Process
As a professional dog trainer, I sometimes have to deliver news that clients aren’t eager to hear. One of the most difficult things to impress upon some people is that training is a process, and sometimes it’s a long one. We live in a world of instant access to information, sound bites and instant gratification. We’re increasingly expected to accomplish more tasks more quickly at work, sometimes all at the same time. We’re all busy. It’s no wonder that so many people want their dogs to master basic obedience immediately, or want behavior modification to happen overnight.
