Your Dog - Obedient Or Monstrous

Obedience Training is the best thing you can do for your dog, puppy... and yourself. Obedience training isn't the answer to all behavior problems, but it is a good place to start for fixing just about any problem. Training allows communication between you and your dog, good communication is imperative to educate your dog. You can teach him anything from 'stay' (don't run away) to 'sit' (don't jump up) to 'fetch' (bring it back for you) to 'off' (get down).

Dogs are social animals and without proper training, their behavior will be wild. They will destroy your possessions, use your house as a toilet, bark incessantly and dig holes in your yard. Almost all dog behavior problems are actually normal things for dogs to do, they just need to be taught there are a time and a place, and your home is definitely not the place. Your dog will soil on the carpet instead of outside, for example; your dog will bark all night instead of just when a stranger is around; or your dog will chew your furniture instead of his own toys. The trick to avoiding behavior problems is teaching your dog to readdress his normal behavior to things that are acceptable in your home.

Obedience training is the best way to establish the social hierarchy. Your dog is showing you respect when he obeys a simple command like 'sit or come here'. Using extreme measure like the so called alpha roll-over to get your dog to recognize you as the leader of the pack is not necessary. By teaching your dog to show submission to you in a paw raise (to shake hands), hand lick (give you a kiss) or even just roll over you are teaching him his role. Nearly all dogs enjoy performing these tricks for you which acknowledges that you are in charge.

"Sit Stay Fetch"- is one of the many dog training books out there, this one has easy to follow steps, to help you to determine your dog to be a role model. To be an example for any other pooches around him.

A well behaving dog says many things about the master- about what kind of family is he growing in, the kind of education he receives. An untrained dog can be a pain in the ass, can embarrass you many times, and can turn your life into a living hell.

Daniel Stevens the author of "Sit Stay Fetch" shows how you could prevent these things from happening, how you could turn your non-welcomed dog into one anyone would like to have, and also into a dog that you can be proud of , a dog that all your neighbors and relatives will be jealous of.

I personally think this book is worth taking a look at, but with all these books they promise you quick results, but to be honest training a dog isn't easy and take time and patience so don't be misled by what they say, you will never see results in just 24 hours. Be patient and kind and you will see the results offered in books like Sit Stay Fetch.
