Senior man training dog.

When you’re training a dog, it’s vital to gain their trust. If a dog feels like they’re being forced to do something, they might find the situation more stressful or appear stubborn – so it’s important to listen to them and work with them.

To help your dog trust you in training sessions, it’s a great idea to give them choices where appropriate alongside some of the best dog treats. Often, our pets don’t get to make their own choices, as we decide when they need to go to the vet and when we feed them, for example. So, giving them choices during training sessions can go a long way.
