Training is the most important aspect of raising a dog.
Quite literally, a well trained dog is by far a happier, safer and healthier dog! Why? For one thing, because a trained dog requires fewer restrictions. The more reliable the dog, the more freedom he is given, the more attention he gets, and the more enjoyable the relationships with everybody.
Training serves to strengthen the bond between you and your dog. It builds communication, understanding, and mutual respect.
So, when company arrives in your home, there's no need to banish a well-behaved dog to another room for fear that he will be a nuisance. Moreover, because a well-mannered, obedience-trained dog is both appreciated and welcome, he receives more attention and interaction from family members, visitors, and passers-by, than does the ill-mannered dog.
Training is vital to a long & happy association with
your dog.
