You got your pet to be your loving companion - and yet all you seem to do is yell at her! Let's change this right away! Instead of focussing on what you don't want your dog to do, focus on what you do want. Instead of having unnecessary battles over nonsense, learn terrific games your dog longs to play with you. Soon your unruly dog will be saying, "Yes? What would you like me to do?" And so begins a wonderful partnership.
