Dog Obedience Training - New York & New Jersey
The pet industry in this country continues to grow by millions of dollars every year. In fact by 2010 pet spending is expected to top $50 billion in the US!
How much of this would you expect goes towards dog obedience training?
As Americans, we spend tons of money on our pets every day; from food, treats and toys to clothes and services, like dog walking. We even hire people to clean the dog droppings from our yards!
Less Than 1% of US Dogs Get Any Formal Dog Obedience Training
It’s a sad truth.
Billions are spent on dog care each year for the (estimated) 60 million dogs in this county, yet less than one percent of these dogs get any formal dog obedience training! That’s appalling!
The majority of complaints that dog owners have about bad dog behavior could easily be rectified with the proper dog obedience training.
Dog Behavior Modification that Works!
Instead of investing a few dollars up front for good dog obedience training, most dog owners tend to approach dog behavior modification with quick fixes that simply don’t work.
They buy chew toys that last for literally hours, they tie out their dogs in the back yard or they crate their dogs for far too long.
These dog owners will do anything to circumvent the bad dog behavior but only if they can keep themselves less involved. One wonders why they even own dogs.
This type of dog owner complains all the time, asking the same questions:
- How do I stop dog barking?
- How do I stop dog jumping?
- How do I stop dog biting?
- How can I housetrain my dog?
- How can I stop my dog from running away?
If your dog chews, destroys everything, never listens or runs away, dog behavior modification is usually a lot easier and much more permanent with the proper dog obedience training.
The truth is…you have to spend more time with your dog and invest some of your dog care money on proper dog obedience training. In the long run, it will save you literally hundreds of dollars and a lot of aggravation over the coming years.
My advice…don’t waste your money on toys, treats and quick fixes…invest in dog obedience training.
Pro-Active Dog Obedience Training
Invest in good dog obedience training and not only will you have a better dog and companion, but you’ll rediscover the joy of why you got a dog in the first place (the “saving money in the long run” is really just an added benefit).
In all my years teaching dog obedience training as a means of good dog behavior modification, I’m happy to say that the dogs and their owners are still together…and having a much easier time of it.
My proactive dog training methods and every day situational training exercises result in civil, calm, well behaved dogs who exhibit good manners around guests.
When your dog has good dog obedience training, you will find that any prior dog behavior modification issues you thought your dog once needed will now simply fall away!
