It takes commitment, effort and patience... It was your decision to include a canine as a part of your family, into your social community, with your rules and lifestyles. By doing so, you also inherited the role of leader in your canine’s world. It is the leader’s responsibility to share, communicate with and guide this canine into being a well adjusted, perhaps ever contributing member of our society. With love, consistency and persistence you will be able to utilize your canine’s special gift and skills while enjoying a happy, fun, joyous partnership with your most loyal friend. Most canines have the ability to comprehend communications much like a two to four year old child. Consider how you would relate to a 2 year old child when working with your canine friend...

The majority of behavior problems seen in and dogs and children, today, are caused by lack of leadership, positive reinforcement and guidance for their leader and family. In children we see problems surfacing during teenage years into early adulthood. Dogs are no different, many of their challenges are notices from 8 months to 3 years old. Consistent, persistent leadership, reinforcement and support must be a part of everyday life for developing successful, contributing, stable dogs (and people).
