Whether you are aware or not your dog is constantly watching you. You are always training your precious little pooch.
Take the last few days for example
I have not been feeling well and my precious angels have been a little neglected. (This is never good when you have active dogs like mine. Luckily, I have already got my golden retriever well trained. She can miss a few days walks and be ok.
Olivia (my problem basset hound) on the other hand is already showing the neglect. If you recall, I am working on who is the boss. Well, last night I went to get her off the bed and she growled at me. Yep! Even though I was sick, I had to take a moment and do a quick reinforcement reminder.
The point is, I should not have taken the few days off training. It was too soon. Olivia needs the constant training to break the bad habits she has learned throughout her short life. I have only been working with her a few weeks and taking a few days off was too soon.
Persistence is Everything!
