Have a problematic dog? Sometimes even the most nervous or out-of-control dog can be calmed with a few simple training exercises. Below is one; you can review the rest at our website.
“Smart Tip: If you have to drag your dog to the car or he trembles uncontrollably during the ride, ask yourself whether you take him in the car only when he has to go to the veterinarian or kennel (or somewhere else that he might find unpleasant). If the answer is yes, take him for a ride around town or go somewhere pleasant, such as a playground. Do this several times so that he gets the idea that a car ride doesn’t always lead to a scary place.”
