I love to walk, so walking a dog keeps me entertained while walking. We recently took a dog obedience class to help with our high energy dog. It taught us so much on basics and what we should be doing to help our dog with her energy issues. Dog training exercises your dog as much as a walk does. I believe that having pet is like having a child and you need to attend to their needs As much as your own. We currently adopted an Australian Cattle dog. We previously had a Border Collie and German Shepard’s from pups through end of life. They went everywhere with as they are part of our family. While I love dogs I feel it is important to have control over your pet at all times. I would never want to see my dog on a lost dog poster or have anyone hurt because of their natural instincts. It is up to me to provide the care they need so I can receive all the love they give me.
