Stupid Dog? Simple Tricks To Make Him Listen
Make sure you're the one walking the dog and that it's not the other way around. This guide
will give you the right guidelines that will help you train your dog effectively and efficiently.

aware of how they should act around other people and dogs. They can't learn about it
otherwise. It will help your dog adjust to new environments better, also.

reinforce any bad behavior. Enforcing negatively may cause your dog to fear you. Positive
reinforcement tactics will make your dog want to please you.

others. These include border collies, labs, Australian shepherds and sheepdogs.

behavior, dog's will become well-behaved.
