Everyone wants a good dog,
But not everyone wants to become the kind of person that makes a good dog.
In today’s world we have been conditioned to expect quick results, success, and instant gratification with minimal effort.
People want to turn their poorly behaved dog into a “Homeward Bound” dream dog without ever putting in the hours it takes to truly understand one in the first place.
Here’s the thing…
A reciprocal relationship can’t be rushed. It is built over time and comes with highs and lows.
What took others years of learning, failing, watching, and refining people now want handed to them in a video tutorial, “any tips” a trainer can give them, or a couple training sessions.
Furthermore, the shortcuts people chase are often detours that lead them right back to where they started, just more frustrated this time.
They want the feel, not the feedback.
They want the bond, not the humility.
They want the dog to change, but don’t want to change themselves.
No one can hand you the timing, the feel, the confident, calm, consistent leadership it takes.
It can’t be downloaded or purchased.
You earn that, learn it, develop it, with every consistent rep and step. With knowledge. With patience. With clarity. Through being a lifelong learner open to change. By showing up on the days it’s hard, boring, frustrating, scary, or humbling.
Become knowledgeable.
Put in the hours.
Because your dog deserves that best version of you.
