More About Training
Your dog's training should be based on its individual personality, past and present behavior, aptitude for learning, breed characteristics, social development, and most importantly your family's goals. Not each dog can fit into a singular "method" of training and therefore it is important to find a trainer that has the ability to modify your dog's training based on your dog and your goals. Your dog's training should be designed to teach your dog useful obedience commands, good manners, and acceptable behavior patterns. Your dog's training would not be complete without you, the owner, learning how to properly handle and effectively communicate with your dog.
While socialization helps to domesticate your puppy, dogs must also learn how to communicate with people in everyday life activities. Obedience training is the key to effective, clear, and consistent communication. This form of canine education is based on trust and mutual respect. An individual dog's obedience training will be influenced by the breed characteristics, genetics, personality, past and present behavior patterns. Training will also be influenced by the goals and personality of the owner.
