This is some truly shocking news.
Did you know that 8 out of 10 dogs will never make it to their first birthday?
It’s true. Dogs end up in shelters and are eventually euthanized within the first 12 months. Very sad and the main reason dogs die in this country is…..
……behavior problems.
I’ve taught for a long time that dogs really do not have behavior problems. The behaviors we classify as problems are all normal, natural behaviors. We just don’t like the time and location that these behaviors occur.
We have no problem with a dog chewing on a stick. But chewing on the oak furniture? That’s a problem.
What can be more normal than peeing and pooping? It’s fine when it happens outdoors but on the carpet? That has been a one way ride to the shelter for many, many dogs.
Jumping up to greet, barking, begging (eating), biting, etc. All behaviors that happen at the wrong time and location. So many dogs could be saved and live long, happy lives if they just learned a few manners.
If they just STOPPED doing certain behaviors in certain locations and times.
And teaching your dog to develop good manners in your house is easy. And once your dog is well mannered and not a chore to deal with every step of the way, life gets good.
Good for you AND your dog because there is now an understanding.
I’ve seen it happen more times than I can count. A behavior like stealing food off the counter has been dealt with for months. The owner wishes this behavior would go away forever so they no longer need to keep food in high places or make sure the dog has no access to the counters.
I step in, show the owner how to stop the behavior and there’s a huge sigh of relief because the dog is no longer doing an extremely annoying and costly behavior.
The good news is…. In the Good K9 Manners Program, I show you how to end “behavior problems” using easy techniques and effective methods.
This puppy is priced low to help as many dog owners as possible.
