conv: I successfully trained my dog to behave and listen to commands. I had failed with my first dog_comma_ but in retrospect it was his breed isnt very trainable. I have a lab mix and he is so well behaved and listens to commands so well. I'm glad I got him as a puppy. Did you start training him when he was young? oh yea. Basically started the day we got him. That definitely helped. That's awesome. I love a well trained dog. Yes. I couldnt' handle a dog I have to keep shut up when people come over and stuff. I know lots of bad dog parents. I've got a well trained dog too so_comma_ I understand.
