| Why do Obedience Work with your dog? First and foremost, a well-trained dog makes a great family pet! Imagine having a dog who walks nicely on a leash, doesn't beg for food, doesn't jump up on people, and obeys your every command? Obedience work is challenging to your dog and gives them a purpose. It's also great fun! Teach your dog things you never thought that they could learn - all with gentle and positive methods that strengthen the bond between you and your dog! |
