Why do our dogs sometimes seem to be "naughty"?
Sometimes it's because we've been a bit inconsistent with our training or boundaries. We've all been there!
But sometimes it can simply be that weโre not meeting one of our dog's natural needs.
Dogs have been bred over generations to use their noses, retrieve, hunt, herd, search, think, solve problems and work alongside people.
When we give them safe, positive opportunities to do what they were bred to do, something changes. Many of those unwanted behaviours start to fade because we're working with our dog instead of constantly battling against their instincts.
That's why, at The National Dog Training Academy, we don't believe dog training should be all about "sit" and "stay." Not saying thatโs not important but ..there's more to it.
Every week we offer a range of fun, skill-based activities, giving dogs and their owners the chance to learn together, build confidence and enjoy training that feels natural.
Because every dog deserves the opportunity to be a dog.
