Dogs do not automatically understand or instinctively know how to live in our domestic world,
nor do they just naturally understand our language.
Teaching dogs how to live in our world is important for their contentment, security, and safety.
Bridging the Gap
Helping dogs understand how to communicate with people and helping people communicate with their dogs is one of the most important parts of training.
Once the communication gap is bridged there is an amazing bond that happens between canines and humans.

It is important for dogs to have play time together.
