I think one of the biggest mistakes dog owners make with their dogs is the way they correct them. Before a human should ever correct a dog there are two important factors that must be met:
1. they must have established a relationship with the dog
2. the must understand how to deliver a proper and fair correction.
Because I find this such an important problem, I’ve written an article on Corrections. Click on the articles tab above.
The concept of correcting a dog is quite foreign to most owners. People see correcting their dogs as mean or unfair. Nothing can be further from the truth. People who understand the right way to correct a dog will create a strong bond with their dog. Those that do not will create a nightmare for both themselves and their dogs.
Enjoy the new article.
