Training Ratio

A quote to remember this week is, "a dog is the only thing in this world that loves you more than they love themselves."

This weeks tip is to remember this ratio when training your dog. 5 to 1. Say it with me 5 to 1, 5 to 1, 5 to 1. Your dog should get 5 praises (good boy/girl, atta-boy/girl) to everyone 1 correction they get. Whether the correction be verbal or by corrective collars. Each time your dog does something good, and gives you a desired behavior they should be praised several times. When your dog does a bad behavior and you correct them, once they are proper, praise them 5 times to let them know what is wanted and what is not. 

While doing your training, whatever it may be, this ratio remains. This is a proven ratio to getting a well behaved and obedient dog.
