My dogs aren't perfect, and I'm ok with that? You would think because I'm a dog trainer I would care more. But that's exactly why I know it's OK. Training a dog is time-consuming and it’s something that most of us just simply aren’t good at. Most likely you won't be able to teach your dog EVERYTHING. I've quickly learned that raising a puppy is a combination between training and management. We quickly get frustrated or overwhelmed trying to create this perfect dog and I’m here to tell you to give yourself a break. It's all about YOUR priorities. In this episode, I confess about my dog’s behavior and how I sometimes manage behaviors instead of correcting them. I save my energy and focus on the behaviors that are the most important to me. Your dog only has to live with you. So it's important to raise YOUR Perfect Puppy, not the one your neighbor says you should have or what Google thinks a well-behaved puppy is.Give yourself a break, the perfect puppy is one you love, is happy and healthy, and enhances your life. Not the one your neighbor tells you you SHOULD have. Listen below and enjoy!
