Dogs are known as man\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s best friend for a\ngood reason. They make excellent companions and can fill your life with so much\njoy and happiness. That is, if they are well trained! We\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve all seen at least\none unruly dog in our lives, haven\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t we? You know the kind we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re talking about\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6\nThe one at the park that keeps barking, jumping up at their owner, pulling on\nthe lead\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6if they are even on a lead!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Obviously, you don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t want to find yourself\nin that situation if you are interested in becoming a dog parent. The benefits\nof having a well-trained dog go beyond simply making those trips to the park\nless stressful. Ensuring that your dog is trained properly will not only\nbenefit the animal, but also you, your family and any other people and animals\nthat you come into contact with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s true that none of the above\nwould happen with a well-trained dog, it is not just the animal who benefits\nfrom the training. As the owner you do too, and not just because it makes life\neasier, although that is obviously a huge factor! When you work hard and train\nyour dog, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a learning process that helps you understand them better and\nimproves your skills as a dog parent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The scenario we highlighted at the outset\ncan be more than just frustrating and irritating. When you have a dog that\ndoesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t listen to a word you say, it is at risk. And it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 not just the dog\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s\nsafety that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s at risk, but also potentially the safety of everyone in the vicinity.\nAn unruly dog is more likely to end up being involved in an accident and that could\neven have fatal consequences. <\/p>\n\n\n\n As well as ensuring that your dog is safe\nwherever you are, training also helps keep your dog happy. Training provides\nyour furry friend with mental stimulation and when you combine that with regular\nexercise, your dog will be happier because they are getting physical exertion\nand a workout for their brain at the same time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Dogs love to be around people and other\nanimals. They are social creatures, but that obviously means they need to\nbehave in a particular way. This only comes with effective training. It helps\nthem to learn how to not beg, jump up onto people and teaches them to act in a\ngenerally more acceptable way for a whole range of different environments,\nsituations and activities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n When you have a well-trained dog, life is a\nlot simpler all round. You won\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t be nervous about them socialising with you and\nany guests who visit your home, or when you take them for a walk or to the park.\nThey will also enjoy life a lot more, by having those boundaries and that\ndiscipline. It helps them understand their place in the world and how they fit\nin with your family. Never, therefore, underestimate the importance of training\nfor your dog. The hard work and effort you put in, will be worth it in the end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This series on new dog ownership aims to bring you all the info you need to know to make it the best experience possible for you and your new four-legged friend.
