I'm very good at training dogs to recognize words and know what your saying to them. I don't believe in any kind of hitting or spanking. I treat them as if they are smart ,learning dogs that is capable to understand what you are saying to them. The hardest part is not falling to much in love. Also I'm careful not to change any teachings the owner has already taught. A little detailed list is always a welcome describe how you would like them took care of and what type of habits to go with your best friend. Well that should just about say it all I think. I hope you have a good day my friend. And I will be waiting to make your friend my friend also.
