Wendy and I have changed venues and we are sitting around Wendy's kitchen table drinking cups of tea while discussing the fact that dogs learn 24/7. It is easy to forget that you need to be consistent, and this was highlighted by a question on Natasja's recent "How To Fix Your Pulling Dog webinar. So we dive in and explore the training circle.
So pull up a chair, pour yourself a cup of your favourite hot drink, have a piece of cake and settle down to find out why you should make the effort to be consistent in ensuring that your dog doesn't learn any bad habits that are easily avoided.
