Train Your Dog, it’s part of the deal.
To be a valued member of the family a pet, dogs in particular, need manners. Plan from day one to take your dog to training class. Like all pets they need to be clean and well groomed. They also need to learn not to jump on people, to accept strangers, walk on a leash and learn commands like sit and stay – until you release them.
Take your children with you to watch and learn how dogs are trained. Once your dog responds well to commands, your child will be proud of having a well behaved dog and friends will be happy to come to your house.
