In this dog training video, we examine the pros and cons of going to the dog park. I give you a way to figure out whether your dog is the right fit (personality) for the dog park. We examine the scientific data to tell us what the probability of for aggressive behavior is and what personality types can be found in the park.
A special thank you to Carolyn Walsh, Ph.D. and Rita Anderson Ph.D. for discussing their research with me. Please check out their website. They have also informed me that they’re happy to share their papers with those who email and kindly request it. [ Ссылка ]
