Public țintă

One quarter of America′s pooches exhibit some form of serious behavioral problem. 23 percent of dog owners say a big drawback of having a dog is that they make noise, bark and whine. 30 percent say their dogs damage their home or yard, and 15 percent say their dog behaves badly around other animals or people. These are behaviors that drive a wedge between people and their pets. But they are problems that can be resolved easily through training especially the kind of training that is designed to strengthen the bond between dog and owner. However, according to a study by the National Council on Pet overpopulation, 96 percent of dogs given up by their owners to shelters had not received any obedience training; training is what makes a dog a great pet and keeps dogs in their homes.
