Are you showing leadership to your dog?

By Nick Jones

So often I find in my work that clients are falling into the same kind of ‘traps’ that make my phone ring with someone saying, “Help!”
On average, a first visit will last about three hours covering many issues, but here are a few top tips to ensure you dog sees you as ‘a leader’ and to avoid some of those traps.

• Ensure your dog lets you through doorways first.
• Offer affection and hellos on your terms, when you’re ready.
• Polish up on the basics of training…sits, downs, stays and the recall.
