Pet training is all about building a strong relationship. To your dog, you are the pack leader and the center of their universe. With patience and love, your fur baby can be the envy of the dog park.

Be Patient

Even Sara Carson’s Super Collies from “America’s Got Talent” were once rambunctious puppies; training a dog takes a lot of time and works much better when you have a plan. Your dog wants to make you happy; they are incredibly sensitive to our emotions, so don’t get frustrated or yell. The simple reward of “good boy” or “good girl” lets them know they are loved and makes training fun. Add a treat and they’ll be blissed.
