Dog walks is one of the most important things one can do for their dog. We do that religiously EVERY DAY. Doesn’t matter how busy we are, what the weather is …
It became part of our life, it’s as natural as brushing one’s teeth in the morning. Can’t imagine a day without it. And it does show. Our dogs are relaxed and calm, because they know their time of fun is sure to come.

Another thing I learned is that training a dog is really a way of life, rather than few minutes every day. Yeah, training sessions are great to teach your dog new things or reinforce the old ones. But I do find that it works best when what your dog learned during the training is also part of the every-day life.

Yelling at my dogs? Well, I do have to admit to raising my voice sometimes. While not the best idea, it does work though, particularly since it happens seldom. It is however my goal to never yell at my dogs. Well, if we were already perfect, what would there be left for us to do?
