Xena Says- Please Train Me

Dogs don't have a psychic connection to us. They learn about us, what we want, what we like and don't like by how and what we train them. It's not fair adopt a dog and not train it. In its own way 'not training' IS training. Its training that tells the dog- go ahead do what you want. It's even more unfair to punish an untrained dog for not doing as you desire. There are countless books (some in our bookstore) and methods to effectively train your dog. Be consistent and use positive reinforcement only.
