Collection: Dog Training

Training a dog is like teaching a toddler with a tail, except the toddler is furrier and occasionally eats shoes. The first step is to establish yourself as the alpha, which is a fancy way of saying you need to convince your dog that you're not just a walking treat dispenser. Start with basic commands like "sit," "stay," and "please stop chewing on my favorite pair of socks." Positive reinforcement works wonders; dogs love treats almost as much as they love sniffing questionable objects on the sidewalk. Consistency is key, so if you tell your dog to stay off the couch, don't let them up there when you’re binge-watching your favorite show. Remember, patience is crucial—both for you and your furry friend. If all else fails, just remember: even professional dog trainers have days where their dogs look at them like they’re speaking Martian. Happy training!
