Dog Training at Home
Some advice from Western Sydneys number one dog trainer
- The human family is considered the pack by the dog, as dogs are pack animals.
- In the dogs mind the child can never be the pack leader.
- Supervise interaction: Always always supervise interactions between dogs and small children.
- Teach children: Teach children how to approach and touch dogs safely.
- Train the dog: Train the dog to have good manners and obedience.
- Avoid rough play: Avoid allowing rough play between dogs and children, as it can lead to bites.
- Provide safe spaces: Provide dogs with safe spaces where they can retreat and relax.
Seek professional help: If there are concerns about a dog’s behaviour, seek professional help from a veterinarian or animal behaviourist.
