Did you know you can teach “An Old Dog New Tricks?”
In the same way people continue to learn throughout their lives, older dogs can not only learn new tricks but new behaviors as well.
Almost all dogs over the age of 5 years have learned the word “NO”. Older dogs are more susceptible to training; they are less energetic, calmer and more eager to please the owner. Things like crate training, Obedience and even house breaking aren’t out of the question just because your dog is over the age of 5. With patience, proper knowledge and approach your family pet can learn new obedience behaviors.
