Animals are sentient beings that deserve our love,
patience and compassion for their struggles. No pet purposely sets out to
cause you grief and make you angry, nor do they exhibit poor behavior out
of spite - as they are incapable of those kinds of thought processes.
Animals react to environmental stimulus (or lack thereof) and are very
sensitive to changes in the household, as small as they may be. Most
issues can be solved with great success if you are willing to view your
pet as a feeling and sensitive being and are consistent with your
training. Do not hold unrealistic expectations. Pet owners who approach
training expecting miracles overnight, only do their pet and themselves,
a great disservice. Humans who have anger, anxiety, depression or
destructive behavior problems never rid themselves of these issues
overnight, so what makes you think your pet can do better than you?
We've chosen to bring these animals
into our lives and domesticate them as part of our family. Kids don't come
with a guarantee (although they should!), so why do we act as if our pets
do? Animals that do not speak our language nor have the same likes and
dislikes as us are at our mercy to blend with this human world we have
brought them into. Lets not lose sight of that.
Hiring a professional should only bring you closer to your pet and your
goals. If you contact someone who suggests the use of pinch/prong collars,
shock collars, constant treats, rolling your pet on its back, hitting,
kicking, kneeing and confining in a crate for long periods of time as a
way to achieve your goals - this is not the person you want to help you
and your pet on the path to happiness and well being.
It really comes down to one question.
If you were your pet...how
would you want to be treated?
