"It's Not the Dog!" will teach you and your family about your dog's natural way of learning. Simply put, you have to change your behavior in order to change your dog's behaviorThe overwhelming majority of dogs want to follow a leader, not be the leader. When dog owners unknowingly ask their dog to be the pack leader they create an unbalanced dog that barks too much, ignores commands, exhibits destructive behavior and the list goes on and on. Your dog wants to follow you. His DNA says he needs to follow you. Having a Pack Leader makes your dog feel safe and secure. And when your dog feels safe and secure they will be open to learning what it is that you want from them. In dog packs, the leaders teach the younger dogs what is correct behavior and what is unwanted. This builds trust and respect. Love from your dog is free but trust and respect have to be earned. Without trust and respect your dog will feel the need to become the Pack Leader. This is what leads to almost all of the problems owners have with their dogs.Our program is a step by step process that is built upon basic rules of the pack. Upon these basic rules, you will teach your dog to perform specific tasks daily until they are automatic. Upon completion of this program you will have transformed your dog into a happy, calm pack member that looks to you for leadership.
