When bringing a dog to training, most people only expect that their dogs will learn how to behave. They do not expect that they will receive an education as well. In fact, one of the main purposes of dog training is to reshape the guardians’ behavior. It is through this process that guardians learn, through the trainers, how to treat dogs both physically and symbolically. It is critical for us to realize that dog training is just as much, if not more, about training humans as it for training dogs. It is we who fail dogs. We fail to communicate properly with them. We fail to live up to our commitments and our roles and responsibility as guardians.
