Default Taming My Dog


When I got my first dog, a beagle, as my pet several years ago, I
was thrilled. I was finally able to have my very own lively,
obedient, and loving pet. After about week, I became very frustrated.
If happened to own a dog too, then you know what I mean. Taking care
of Sally was like having to take care of an unruly child.

I already had some knowledge on how to train Sally. But it didn't
seem to work, Sally would continue her bad habits in spite of what
I've done. She would let it out anywhere she pleased. The incessant
barking, whether it's indoors or outdoors drove my neighbors mad. Do
get me wrong, I love my pet, but this was getting out of hand. Sally
was afraid of the simplest things: I can't even use the toaster
without her barking like mad. Whenever an icecream truck drove by, she
run for cover. She disobeyed my commands many times and would bark at
my friends and neighbors for no apparent reasing. Taking her out was a
pain. I was tired of having to fetch most of those frisbees myself.
There must be something wrong with the way I'm training her I thought,
so I went out and bought a couple of dog training books and read
through them in about a week. I've applied most of the techniques in
the book but a month passed and there was still no progress. I then
tried other books and asked for advice from other dog owners. Again,
almost a month passed and there was still no progress. I was
exhausted. Having stress from work was bad, I don't want to be
stressed at home too. I pondered for a while and realized that no
matter how difficult a situation is, there's always solution if one is
persistant.

With the newly found drive to train my dog for the better, I scoured
for more information on dog training. Then I stumbled upon something
that actually worked. I thought it was the same old stuff that's
already in the books that I've read, but no this was actually
something new and effective. It was a epiphany for me after I bought
the manual and followed its instructions and techniques. After about a
month, Sally was starting to become fairly obedient. Most of her worse
habits were gone. She was on the right track for improvement. You see,
there's usually always a solution to even the worse problems. The
answers are out there, you just have to find it. I was glad I didn't
give up early.
