If there is one thing that all sensible dog owners agree on is that they have to at least meet the bare minimum requirements for caring of their animals. Unfortunately, the bare minimum requirements are not always understand in the same way by all dog owners. So, I am writing this article with the intent to clear this all up.
I am sure that all dog owners can agree that dogs must be fed and most of them will also agree that some foods are better for their dogs than others. Likewise, most dog owners also agree that dogs need to be allowed to experience walks around the block or the park and that there is a need to play with them and pay them the attention they so often crave. The dispute arises when it comes to training as some owners believe it is utterly unnecessary while other think the opposite, that it is an unquestionable must.
I very passionately vote right along all those dog owners who believe that their dogs should be trained. My passion for training dogs is based on my observations that dog which are trained tend to:
- Better socialized and therefore also a better member of the family pack as well as being a better neighbor, etc.
- Better adjusted when it comes to being around other dogs.
- Happier because he or she is given more variety in their lives.
- Brighter because training forces them to use their brains with challenges which they would not need to face otherwise.
- Cuter for doing all kinds of adorable tricks.
In conclusion I will repeat myself – I am very passionate about dog training because I have little to no doubt that a dog which has been properly trained is much better balances, much more social which makes him or her more pleasant to be around, much happier and, lastly, much healthier.
Yes, dogs must be trained, in my humble opinion and such training can come from a variety of sources: professional dog trainers or dog owners who utilize the information gleaned from dog training books and/or videos which can readily be found through online vendors, retail stores or public libraries.
