Do You Want a Dog: Or a Wolf?

Dog Training - You Reap What You Sow
Nine times out of ten Dogs like to follow their basic instincts     and their influences. Many experts have written thousands of articles and books about dog behaviour, and as far and wide as you go you wouldn't find many who would condone aggressive training of your dog. The reason for this is that dogs and puppys take in they are taught very quickly, and if you behave aggressively towards a dog will influence it to behave in an equally aggressive manner. Deep down in every dog, there is the instinct of a wolf – because that is where ti comes from.
Now, if you find a wolf in the wild and take an aggressive posture towards it, the wolf will not back down. It is likely to go for your throat and not stop until either you or it are fatally wounded Although domestic dogs have lost something of that instinct and ferocity, the aggressive nature is still there. Though it is buried deep down  so it reacts when it is backed into a corner by an owner. A dog may back down when you strike it. By striking a dog repeatedly it will react as any wolf being threatened – and it will bite you.
By now every one who is a Dog Lover has heard about the Dog Whisperer and most probably seen some of his shows.  Cesar always points out to act as a leader of the pack which means to be firm and decisive but never hurting your most precious companion physically.  It is worthwhile remembering that we are not molly coddling a little child or the opposite have to pressure this normally trusting creature into anything it doesn't want to do.  Being a pack leader usually brings pain free results for everyone involved. Absolutely the only way to do it
Give a dog fun, exercise and affection and it will repay you in kind with interest in the most fantastic way. A dog will form a bond with its owner instinctively and do everything it can to please him. Use this instinct to your advantage, and watch your dog blossom into a dog or pup you can be proud of, rather than a wolf with slightly blunted teeth and instincts.
