If you and your dog enjoy and have fun during training, you are more likely to succeed. If your dog is nervous, bored, confused, frustrated or unhappy in any way, he simply will not want to participate. And if you are annoyed, bored, frustrated or unhappy in any way, your dog will sense your bad mood and will be less likely to want to do as you ask of him.

Keeping training an upbeat and positive experience will help you bring the best out of yourself and your dog for maximum success and fun! Remember, training is a way for you and your dog to bond and enjoy spending time as a team. It should always be a wonderful experience for both of you!

DeleteI think that is why we don't do well in obedience school. Mom hates going to obedience class, and we can tell.
ReplyDeleteI see. Obedience classes sometimes seem boring when compared to our exciting sports such as Agility and Searching.
