Brainy Dog
teaching is...

a mutually diverse deep conversation.

You will learn to speak dog, and your dog will learn to speak human. Listening to your dog is a big part of that conversation.

Communication is the foundation of any friendship. Without clear communication, change would be stressful. Without understanding, we are more likely to make incorrect assumptions, leading to stress, confusion, avoidance, and anger.

 

Same for dogs.

Adding essential life values can increase well-being for dogs. It's about filling the dog "needs". Fulfilling needs eliminates the reason the dog was displaying the concerning behavior. The dog was just trying to tell us something is wrong in the best way they can think of.
