Are you guilty of any of those dog training don’ts?

-don’t nag your dog by repeating commands when he’s tired, as it teaches him to ignore you.

-don’t try to suppress behaviors that need an outlet.
-don’t let your dog stagnate.
-don’t lock your dog up or punish him because you haven’t trained him how to behave.
-don’t isolate your dog for long periods of time.
-don’t get to serious in your training.
-don’t expect your dog to obey if you are not parent/leader.
