Dog training is the process of teaching a dog skills and/or behaviours. Most people will be familiar with teaching the basic commands, but dog training is way more than that. Potty training, dog sports, assistance, detection and rescue work, just to name a few, are all behaviours and skills learned through dog training. Skills and behaviours can be learned through different training methods, with force free training being the most up-to-date and science-based training approach.
