Having a well-trained dog isn't always about whether it can "sit" or "stay" it is also about what type of manners it has with visitors and the public. How well does your dog walk on a leash or meet and greet new people and other dogs? How happy and well behaved is it in your house, with your kids? Sometimes the gap between a well-adjusted family member and a destructive or frustrating "pet" can simply be the understanding of how to communicate with your dog and have the dog understand your communication. Once you have bridged the gap of language you are well on your way to being able to teach your dog anything! From obedience to tricks to manners, it is all about understanding the language.
