Things they are a-happening

Howdy and welcome to this edition of DogJoy Blog!

Starting NOW I'm going to be doing regular blogs about dog training, dogs, and things I think of that relate to the aforementioned topics.  I will be covering training techniques, training and other dog books, animal behavior ideas and how they relate to our beloved pets, and discussing things I find that might help you think about your training in a new way and hopefully inspire you to work outside your comfort zone.

Or just find that zone!

Variety is what keeps training fun and therefore means that you do it regularly.  Even more important is learning how to fit it into your daily life so you're not even AWARE that you're training.  The most successful trainers (at any level) are the ones that can master this.  And yes, training on your couch or bed totally counts as long as you keep several things in mind:

Observation
Consistency
Logical Progression
Honesty

We will talk more about these ideas later, but trust me, there are plenty of ways to train your dog while watching TV or cooking dinner!  Stay tuned, subscribe to this page, and sit back and enjoy yourself! 

Your dog will thank you!
