Training shouldn’t stop at “sit!” There is so much more your dog can do!

by Pat Miller

Look back on past articles in the Whole Dog Journal archives, and you’ll see a wealth of information on basic training and management – two vitally important topics. There comes a time, however, when dog and owner need to move past the basics to more advanced concepts of learning and behavior if they want to develop and enjoy their relationship to the fullest. Let’s explore a few of the concepts that can take you and your dog beyond “Sit happens!” to the hallowed halls of higher canine education.

The goal: Dogs who behave perfectly and are responsive to your cues no matter where you are or what is going on. If your training methods are rooted in behavioral science and accurate learning theory, you can reach your goal, while preserving the all-important human/dog bond of trust and affection.
