With good solid basics comes connection to your dog, mutual respect and an understanding that you are there to protect and guide them  |
Agree, but I think far too often people do not instill enough discipline in their dogs. I think as a nation we are useless at it. We give far too much fuss and a lack leadership, and this causes problems.
If a dog is way too excitable, in my opinion, it is either not being physically and mentally stimulated or it does not have enough respect for the handler.
As you know rainy, alpha and leadership, to me go hand in hand x
