How To Train Your Dog in Simple Ways! Start to Train Your Best Friend At The Beginning

Dog owners all believe their dog's personality is distinct and unique.

•
Even if they own two dogs of the same breed, perhaps even from the same litter, they'll say each dog has a personality all his own.

•
And they'll be right. And yet many of those same people believe that dog personalities are determined by breed.

•
They'll say things like "Golden Retrievers don't bite," or "Pit Bulls are vicious." And they'll be wrong.

•
A dog's personality, like that of a child, is determined more by "nurture" than "nature."

•
Depending on how he's raised, a Golden Retriever will bite and be vicious; a Pit Bull will be a gentle coward.

•
It is true that dogs of a certain breed may share some behavioral characteristics (e.g., most Labrador Retrievers enjoy swimming and are crazy about fetching a ball).

•
There are exceptions to every rule, but knowing behavioral (as well as physical) characteristics will help you to decide on a dog that will likely be a good fit for you and your lifestyle.

You'll cover that later in this book.
