And even more importantly, WHY? The most loving and responsible thing you can do for your dog is make sure they are trained well with a solid foundation. Not only will you and your family get more enjoyment and dependability out of your animal, the dog will also be more comfortable, less anxious and/or aggressive. You MUST step up and be the leader! However, THE most important reason to ensure your dog has a great start with a solid foundation is that this is the one thing you can do to ensure that animal’s wellbeing for life – whether or not you own them their whole life!
