Homework & Key Concepts
1
Dogs steal your approval by jumping on you. Don't let your dog touch you in unnecessary ways. An example of this is when he puts his paw on your foot or rubs his/her body against you.
2
Socialization — This is a slow process that sometimes takes a few months. Often this is fear aggression or low self confidence. Just be patient and work with us.
3
Dog aggression — This is either a quick fix (1 week) or a couple of months. But it's worth it, because a happy dog is a happy home.
4
Counter surfing — This is another example of your dog NOT understanding the boundaries around your home. We need to coach you to be the alpha.
