We are doing the Pack Structure DVD. Is this going to set them back in any way on the things we have worked with them on? This won't hurt the relationship I have with my dog, will it?

Full Question:
Thank you so much for all your help. I wish I had known about you sooner.

We are doing the Pack Structure DVD. We have a 3 year old male and a 5 month old. Is this going to set them back in any way on the things we have worked with them on? Do I need to do this with my 5 month old also? I have started, I hope I have not messed up. How do I know when they are crate submissive? I trust what you say and am doing things the way you say, but it sure is hard not to talk and to love on your dogs. This will not hurt my relationship with my dogs will it?

Thanks for all you do and for putting up with folks like me.

Cindy Cindy's Answer:
Pack structure training should be done with all your dogs, to be most effective. You will know when your dogs are becoming calm and submissive by the change in their behavior. There isn’t any one thing I can explain to you in an email, but you will know. Every dog is different, and accepts the training at different rates dependent on their temperament and how consistent you are.

This training will only help the relationship with your dogs, not hurt it.
