Do all dogs need training??
Yes. When you bring a dog into your home it's important that you and your dog learn to communicate with each other. A great place for that to happen is during training. And training is great for dogs of all ages!

Welcome home, Fido! Adding a new dog to the family is exciting. And then the honeymoon is over and it's time to really get to know each other.
