Leadership in Dogs: The Hidden Risk You Didn't Know!

Does your dog actually protect you, the leader? We'll explore the intricacies of protection in defense drive, how obedience plays a crucial role, and why a strong leadership position might actually prevent your dog from stepping up to protect you. Hans explains why starting with protection training before obedience might yield better results and discusses the importance of relinquishing leadership to enable your dog to take charge in protective situations. We also touch on the difference between out-of-drive and in-drive obedience and how to balance both for effective training. To Purchase Instructional Videos: https://www.alpinek9real.com/personal...
