We all know that when we get a new puppy, we need to start training right away...lots of basics to learn at that young age. Many of us forget that to do the very best that we can for our dogs, we need to keep training throughout their lifetime. "Our dogs will give us back 10 times more than we give them" so we need to make sure we are giving them the right things!
We work on training in our home daily; manners, waiting at the door (humans go first), recall, stay, STOP (this is a great one...if your dog is running away or is in danger and you need it to stop right now!), tricks, games, etc.
Find a great trainer, read some good books, join Baxter & Bella online training (don't forget to use code MOUNTAINHOME for 25% off), check out your local kennel club for some fun classes (agility, scent work, Canine Good Citizen certificate). Have fun with your dog, train with your dog...the relationship you grow with them will be invaluable and so rewarding!
