HOW MANY OF YOU ARE FRUSTRATED, IRRITATED, EXHAUSTED,

* Barking at the front door/window

Well, if you are experiencing any of the unwanted behaviors listed above, YOU ARE
NOT ALONE and there is HOPE ! Too many dog owners simply give up or learn to live
with their dog's behavioral issues. Even worse, there are still many (good people) who believe
that yelling, being more forceful, or using choke, prong, or shock collars will help dogs behave
better. I never advocate the use of any of these training methods. Where is the quality of life
for all parties involved when your dog is living in an unbalanced, stressful state.? How can
we expect our dogs to love, trust, and respect us when we are the source of confusion,
anxiety, and fear? There are easier and kinder ways to communicate with your dog(s).
Throw away the old-school methods (you know you want to)...THERE IS A BETTER WAY !
