Struggle = success
Just because you are struggling, it does not mean you are failing. The greatest success often comes from the struggles that you have to occur to get there.
Often times people feel if they don’t ” get it ”, or that they keep failing, that they never will and give up. However this is far from the truth. Just like anything else we have to practice to get what we want. Think of when you were learning to walk… it took many stumbles and many attempts but after your struggle you had an amazing reward.
This is the same in dog training (or anything in life!). We all struggle on a daily basis… but how you continue and refocus on your goal will make you successful. You are the one that dictates the relationship you have with your dog. If you have the desire to have the best possible dog than you most certainly can.
Don’t give up on your dog. But most importantly, don’t give up on yourself! The relationship you have now will change into something amazing by tomorrow.
Our dogs genuinely want to do the right thing, but we need to give them the tools. If you feel your dog isn’t listening because she’s being difficult or stubborn, consider that maybe she just doesn’t get it. Talk to a professional and see what you can do for your dog!
