IF YOUR DOG IS DISPLAYING THESE BEHAVIORS, THEN YOU’RE IN the right spot for OBEDIENCE TRAINING!

A dog that is displaying these types of behaviors is showing lack of discipline, respect and trust. Ultimately, a dog that lacks obedience can and always will find another job to keep themselves busy, generally when gone self employed they pick destructive behaviors. (Ex. digging, chewing, barking) In order to keep both the owner and the dog safe, your dog should look to you for the leadership and trust & respect you. Otherwise, it creates potentially comprising situations that can put your life and their life at risk – plus is always better when you find a way to communicate!

  • Reactivity to people, situations, objects, etc.

  • You worry your dog will bite someone (or even has already!)

  • Jumps on visitors

  • Chews on furniture and other items

  • Disobeys or ignores your commands

  • Does the ‘unmentionable” on your favorite carpet

  • Digging up your yard or flower bed

  • Barking uncontrollably

At the Botanical Gardens in Clemson, SC  where Handler and dog are working on communicating in obedience together.  Successful Dog Training!

Your dog is a member of the family just like any other. Like humans, we’re all expected to behave a certain way. Respecting each other’s personal space, and not making a mess in the home are a couple of simple expectations…for starters. However, many dog owners struggle to get their pets to abide by even these simple requests. If this sounds all too familiar to you, it’s time to consider dog obedience training.


Also, it’s important to note that the longer you allow your dog’s poor behavior to go unmanaged – the more difficult it is to correct. Dogs don’t interpret language like you and I do – they look for subtle cues in your body language to decide how they should react in a situation. It’s possible that some dog owners are actually sending the wrong signals…and actually encouraging a dog’s poor behavior!
