So you finally have the life of your dreams. You have a loving family, good job, nice house, and the dog to round it all out.
You wake up bright and early but you have a big smile on your face. You have an entire hour of peace and quite all to yourself to wake up and get ready for work before you have to get the kids up. You start a fresh pot of coffee quietly singing towards yourself. The wonderful smell of coffee is starting to waft around the house and you can not help but to think to yourself how incredibly lucky you are.
You happen to notice that your neighbor is taking their little brown dog out for a walk. Your thinking how nice to be out so early for some fresh air and a bit of exercise. Then out of nowhere your dog comes pounding through the kitchen and to the window. The hair on his back is raised and he lets out a low growl. Before you can get to him he is in full fled barking mode and there is nothing you can do to prevent him from waking up the whole house.
As you are desperately trying to make him hush up the baby starts crying, and the older children drag themselves out of their beds to see what is going on. All you can do is look at your children because you know that within a few minutes the house will be in full gear and you have yet to drink your first cup of coffee, let alone enjoy any of your quite time while you got ready for work. All hopes of having a calm start to the day has just disappeared.
That’s it you think. That dog needs dog training, barking at all hours of the day has got to go.
The desire to get your dog trained has stayed with you throughout work. You are a bit on the frazzled side all through work. As soon as you pick up your children after work you realize that they are on the verge of becoming very overtired. Well, how can you blame them, they are not used to getting up that early. You make it home with as little fuss as possible and file them all through the door.
Just then your dog comes bounding up on you to show you how much you were missed. You nearly avoid being knocked over. You have a new demand to add to your dog training, jumping has to go as well. You look over and then you see it… the gaping hole in the middle of the carpet. That dog, that very, very bad dog has dug a whole smack dab in the middle of your living room carpet.
You look at your beloved dog as the kids are all crowding around him. They are all pleading with you with their eyes to please not be angry. The dog is after all very, very sorry.
All you can think is that dog is a nuisance but there is nothing you can do. The children are head over heals in love with their dog and in truth, so are you. Regardless, you have to stop your dog digging holes especially in the middle the living room floor. That is when dog obedience training comes into play. The best way to get your dog to behave is to train him to do so.
When dog training barking is usually high on the list of behaviors that have to go. Visit SafeDogObedienceAdvice.com to learn how to safely and positively train your dog. Dog Obedience Training
