I’m a big fan of Chris Brogan. I’m a regular reader of his blog and am also in the middle of his book right now.
Last week Chris posted about simplicity (or more accurately, about unnecessary complexity) and only rarely do I see something about business that can be so directly applied to what I am trying to write about training and living with dogs and puppies.
So I’m swiping his idea.
Hopefully, when you poke around my site you will pick up on a few common themes: reward what you like, ignore what you do not, make sure your dog is paying attention to you, pay attention to your dog, exercise your dog, play with your dog.
Simple stuff. Repeated. A lot. Unlike other training advice you may have come across, there’s no disclaimer here saying “Don’t try this at home.” I want you to try it. I want you to see for yourself.
Because it’s not rocket science.
