Dog’s Know Best…We Just Translate

Dogs perceive the world in their own unique way. Their needs and our assumptions about those needs can often be misaligned. A dog pulling on the leash might instinctively cause the owner to pull back, unintentionally triggering the dog’s opposition reflex and reinforcing the undesirable behavior. A skilled trainer understands not only a dog’s natural instincts but also the human tendencies that can hinder effective communication and training.
