"Being a dog trainer focused on teaching people to train their dog for obedience training, puppy development and resolving behavioural issues comes with its own skill set. However, it is more than just knowing how to train a dog—learning how to communicate with many different types of people based on their unique personalities, lifestyles, and physical limitations. Communication is crucial in truly making a difference in the dog's life by articulating and coaching people effectively." - Panos.
