Product Description
This DVD will take a behind the scenes look at the journey many rescue dogs go on before reaching your home. You will see rescue organization staff and volunteer interviews to see what life was most likely like before you adopted your new best friend. This DVD covers common behavior problems associated with dog adoption (nervousness, separation anxiety, etc…) and how to solve and prevent those problems. Learn how to properly introduce a dog to a new environment and housemates, proper socialization techniques, maintain a healthy pet, leash walking manners, obedience training and more. Our goal with this DVD is to reduce the return rate to animal shelters due to behavior problems. We hope you find this DVD to be a valuable behavior management tool.
Thank you for saving a dog's life!
