Episode 49: Nothing In Life Is Free–A Philosophy for Your Greyhound

Show your greyhound how to get what s/he wants.

aboutgreyhounds

“Nothing in Life is Free” is a behavior philosophy that can be an effective way to convince your greyhound that you’re worth paying attention to. It helps him or her to realize that you have a wide variety of things that your dog wants––and a good. specific behavior is what it takes to get those things. It’s not a training method; it is a way of structuring your life with your greyhound to make your role as a leader more obvious to your dog.
