Since we have the worst advice thread going, I thought I would try to balance it out. Perhaps it will help drive some of the stupidity out of my brain!


Best advice: If you get frustrated while training, STOP TRAINING! Immediately! Don't go for one more rep! Walk away and regroup.

Don't believe everything you see on T.V. DO your research ... that goes for more than just dogs too!

A tired dog, is a good dog.

Don't do anything to your dog that you wouldn't do to your child or grandparent.

Choose a dog for temperament, not solely on looks.

(doesn't mean you don't have to like a dog's look )

It's not the breed, it's the dog.

If your puppy wakes up at sunrise, cover the crate with a blanket and it will sleep longer.

A dog isn't less than human, he just is not a human - and should be trained keeping his natural behavioral patterns prioritized. It is important to provide psychologically and physically for a dog in every way, no matter how inconvenient this may be to you.
