Dogs can be trained
to do many wonderful and different things.

The most common role of a dog,
and my particular interest, is that of a loyal sidekick.

My goal at Liberty Dogs
is to help your dog
become a calm, obedient
companion.

There are few human activities
in which dogs do not play a role.

Dogs do it all — from
assistance to sports.

You’re not done training the dog, until you can trust him at liberty.

Good dog training is undramatic.

If you want the dog to stop fighting the leash, stop using the leash to fight the dog.

You’re not done training the dog, until you can trust him at liberty.

Your dog is not being a problem, your dog is having a problem.”

If it’s too hot for your feet, it’s too hot for Scruffy.

Gentle in what you do, Firm in how you do it.

Your dog wakes up every morning thinking it’s going to be a great day. Don’t disappoint them.

Training for compliance is not the same as training for motivation.

Tecla Walton

I let the dog out, or I let him in,
and we talk some.
I let him know I like him,
and he lets me know he likes me.

Even when the slightest progress is apparent…execute a dance of joy with the animal.
Konrad Most

Training for compliance is not the same as training for motivation.”

Tecla Walton

Training is a communicatory sport.

Focus on moving forward, not on the size of the steps.

As fast as you can, as slow as you need to.
