What is dog psychology anyway?

Just like people, each dog has its own personality. They express their wants and needs in different ways, and the more time you spend with your dog, the more you’ll get to know him. Why is he really chewing every pair of shoes in sight? 

Understanding one another helps strengthen the bond between you and your canine companion. You learn to recognize what triggers specific behaviors and develop a safer, more effective strategy for overcoming them.
