2Dog Behavior Training For Your New Pet
3Some of us might remember that old song, "How
Much Is That Puppy In The Window?" Even those
that don't recollect this once popular tune
can certainly relate to the experience of
simply falling in love with every cute little
puppy you encounter.
4It doesn't take long to figure out where
the phrase "puppy dog eyes" comes from.
Unfortunately our animal shelters, swollen
with older relinquished pets, are a sad
testimonial to the fact that too many
instances of "puppy seduction" end up in a
household disaster because well intending folks
simply do not understand the basics of dog
behavior training.
5Dog behavior training should the first concern of
new puppy parents. Put the crates, bedding,
leashes and food aside for a moment. Your dog
behavior training resources must be in order
if you are to effectively transform that
sweet little puppy into a functional member
of your household.
6Responsible breeders and pet shop owners
should take the time to instill this
requirement in the minds of new dog owners before
you leave their facility. Too often, the
excitement of a new pet and the completion of
sale or adoption formalities distracts both
parties from addressing dog behavior
training as the highest priority of pet
ownership.
7On the surface one might conclude that dog
behavior training is a process which
benefits the new dog owner. While this is most
definitely true from the perspective of owning a
well disciplined, controllable pet, one
ultimately comes to learn that it is the dog
which benefits more from proper training than the
owner. Simply put, an untrained dog quickly
becomes a nuisance rather than a welcome addition
to the home.
8Owners unfamiliar with the basics of canine
behavior and who have not pursued a path of
effective dog behavior training quickly become
frustrated with their newly acquired animal. This
stresses the dog and seriously compromises the
pet's future potential for learning what is
expected of him. The relationship of owner and
pet quickly becomes a relentless downward spiral
and eventually the animal ends up in a shelter.
9Quality dog behavior training is the ultimate
gift you can give to your dog. It ensures the
dog's experience will be positive and
catalyze a long lasting, irreversible bond
between your family and their new pet.
