How to Train a Dog for Life

"There's nothing I'd rather do than train dogs," owner says. "I love to train my dogs but I understand that other people live differently and I've got no problem with that" If your dog is looking at another dog or another person, take the choice off the table and tell it what to do. Giving a child a choice: Do you let them hold your hand on a busy street? No, because it's not safe if they make the wrong choice. They might run out ahead of you in a park where there are no cars. The same is true with your dogs. Choice is fine - but not if a bad possibility exists.
