K9PawPrints DOG TRAINING

Less than 35% of all family dogs live out their lives with their original owners.  Each year millions of. pet dogs axe surrendered to animal shelters, and over 80% of these animals are destroyed!  This works out to one every 4 seconds!

The reasons for the turn-ins vary, but typical complaints include biting, destructive chewing, excessive barking, elimination within the home, and general unruliness — habits that most often have their roots in the early months of puppyhood.

Regardless of why you acquired a puppy, in order for your dog to develop into an asset instead of a burden, you need to learn why he does what he does and take the time to teach him right from wrong, good manners.  You, not the dog; will have to be the leader. Please invest the time.
