How Do Humans See Training?
Humans think it’s “fix or train the dog,” or 1.
My job is to get them thinking it’s possibly both “fix and train the dog,” or “fix train the human,” or 2.
When I’ve done my job, clients figure out how the human’s at the crux of all their training issues. When they’ve done their work, when they’ve reached 3) on their own—and then apply that new awareness and understanding to their relationships with their dog—that’s when the pace of training accelerates. The dog responds differently and better because they’ve figured out what they weren’t doing, plus what they shouldn’t have been doing.
“It’s an inside job.”
