Nancy Freedman-Smith, dog trainer and owner of Gooddogz Training, provides a place for dog owners to find positive training tips, canine-activities and places to visit along with the latest information on keeping your dog healthy and active. Nancy lives with her three young kids, Charlee and Finney the dogs, Yellow the parakeet and Tater-Tot the Hamster. Staying current, keeping fresh, and always learning new things is a must for Nancy and her profession because one thing that animals surely teach you is "the more you know, the more you know you don't know."
Word
My training clients have come up with some truly choice tidbits these last few weeks that I think are worth sharing.
Enjoy!
On paying the cost of private sessions
We will find the money somehow, I need to do whatever it takes to keep my kid's dog. Besides, I rather pay you a few hundred dollars now, than pay his therapy bill in a few years, all because I got rid of his dog.
A divorce attorney costs a hell of a lot more than you and that is next person I am calling if we don't get this dog some training.
Can I pay you in advance? I have to pay you from our home equity line and there is minimum check amount. (really!)
Actual phone message
We need help, my dog is out of control! We thought we knew what we were doing, but apparently not!
In class
But my dog is distracted by distractions.
And then there is always one unusual training problem that comes up every now and then. This one made my day...
How do I get my dog to stop pulling my kid's pants down?
Comments
