Patient Dog Training

Today's dog training concept... PATIENCE! When you have set up the perfect lesson, and the dog is doing a good job of trying to figure something out, don't do their homework for them. 

I was working on a breakthrough with a dog this morning. By giving him the opportunity to puzzle out the right answer, we did him a greater favor than if we had just made it too easy. 

The challenge was just right. He figured it out. Now he gets it. 

That's gold when training a dog.

Plan accordingly.
