It’s too often I see people showing off their dogs, obedience, and using that as a measurement of how much their dog loves them. . Obedience has nothing to do with love. It has to do everything with the dog bettering it circumstances. This can either be done through providing pleasure or providing the dog the option to avoid discomfort. Either way it has nothing to do with your dogs feelings towards you. . Do not get me wrong, if done, right, it can absolutely contribute to an amazing relationship. Because you are continuing to provide pleasure and bond with your dog. But we all know that’s not always the case so simply showing obedience is not a measurement. . It is a measurement of your dogs, drive, your dogs, intelligence, and your ability to provide your job clarity. When I see obedience, I am absolutely amazed with what they are able to do. But not for a second am I thinking about the relationship. Because it could go either direction depending on the handler. #dogtok #dogtrainersoftiktok #nycdogtrainer #dogtrainingtips #dogtrainingadvice #dogtrainer #canine #canineeducation
