Do You Command Your Dog Too Much?
Do you always feel the need to tell your dog what to do, when to do it and how to do it?
When we insist on telling our dog everything to do, we aren’t allowing the dog to think on his own and learn the real life manners he needs to be a part of your pack. You aren’t allowing him to use his brain or to build up confidence. If you allow your dog to begin using his brain, being sure to only reward the behavior that you like, he will learn quickly and the behavior will be solid. Once he is doing the behavior consistently, you can put a command to it for those times you need to instruct him.
Your dog has a brain, let him use it. If you find that you can’t keep your mouth shut, use this great, proven, technique.
You will need to get a roll of duct tape and gently place it over your mouth. Since you will be unable to tell your dog “good boy” for doing the right behavior, you will need an assistant. Please be careful when removing the duct tape, it is known to be a better hair remover than Wax or Nair could ever dream of being. Or, you can give me a call and I’ll walk you through it without pulling out any of your hair.
