LOTP Hierarchy of Dog Needs!
At Leader of the Pack Dog Training our goal is to teach our clients how to respect and work with a dog's basic instincts. To understand the roots of dog behavior it is important to understand the Hierarchy of Needs the behavior is fulfilling. Once all of a dog's needs are met it can finally lead the healthy happy life it deserves.
First, it is important to remember the basic needs of the ANIMAL - these include things like water, food and shelter. Secondly, we need to address the needs of the CANINE - these include exercise, work and play. Thirdly, we provide the structure for the PACK MEMBER - these include leadership, discipline and affection. Lastly, we are rewarded with a working PARTNER - skills at this level include the command and performance of advanced training behaviors, assistance dogs and the freedom of knowing your dog focuses and responds on cue to all verbal and non-verbal commands without delay.
