Takeaways There's a massive difference between a good enough dog and a dog you can trust completely. Composure is more important than commands in dog training. Dogs thrive on structure and understanding their role in the family. Socialization should include composure training, not just exposure to new experiences. Training transforms both the dog and the owner, fostering a deeper connection. Dogs react to their environment in four ways: fight, flight, avoidance, or acceptance. Impulse control is essential for a well-behaved dog. Training is a family affair; everyone needs to be on the same page. Dogs can sense their owner's emotions and respond accordingly. Effective training methods can turn chaotic dogs into calm companions. Every dog has the potential to be trained, regardless of age. Establishing boundaries is crucial for a dog's development. Leadership in dog training alleviates stress for both the dog and owner. Training is an investment that pays off in the long run. Understanding a dog's anxiety can improve training outcomes. Advocating for your dog is essential in social situations. Crate training is foundational for new dogs. Training should be integrated into daily life, not just formal sessions. The Cornerstone philosophy emphasizes family involvement in training. Building a partnership with your dog enhances the training experience.
