I think one of the reasons dogs can be trained is most are driven by things like the desire to please, or be praised or the reward of a treat, but when a dog is not driven by any of those things I think training is so much harder. I often notice when members here are complaining about the difficulty of training their dog they will also say that they don't care much for treats. Lola will do almost anything for a treat or a toy, she has been so easy and does almost nothing wrong so she has required very little training and almost no discipline, but Kirby the pup I had before her seemed like every day he was in trouble for something |
