Custom K-9 Service Dogs

We'd heard a lot about how "strict" and "rigid" German society was pertaining to dog training, and our travels and experiences have made us think hard about that question.

We’ve seen fewer dogs out in public here than we expected. And the dogs we have seen haven’t always looked more polished — but we have noticed more people actively training, correcting, guiding, and working with their dogs in real time.

So maybe the question isn’t whether structure creates better dogs.

Maybe it’s whether structure, exposure, expectations, and follow-through all have to work together.

That’s the part we keep coming back to as dog trainers.
