Most dog people will agree on the fact that dogs are typically honest creatures where as humans are deceitful. I get folk coming over to my place who wish to appear honest and of good character but eventually their true intentions come out. I also get folk who come here who are honest and honorable- really good people. Dogs reflect both groups of people.
If a dog does not like you they show it and do not hide their feelings. People will smile in your face and then talk behind your back, nothing new there. Been going on forever and will continue until the Chicago Cubs win the World Series.
It does get aggravating at times though, kinda like ticks in the summer time. Blood sucking parasites that spreads diseases, people gossip. I have learned to keep a healthy distance when dealing with the public because that saying " God is great beer is good and people are crazy" is so true.
People look at my course and will copy stuff from that and then have no idea what they are doing with it. Its not about climbing, jumping, walking, crawling- it is not about that at all. They will emulate things that they see you doing but do not understand why you are doing it. They are full of excuses when their dogs do not listen to them and tend to treat their dogs as "children."
If their dogs do not perform- they blame the system or personally attack you. Again, they have many excuses and they also gravitate to people who also make excuses.
You will not find me saying anything negative about any other dog trainer out there. There are many so called dog trainers that do indeed like to put down someone else in an effort to make themselves look good. That only shows their lack of confidence, integrity and experience.
Let your own work prove yourself and if you cant say anything positive- keep quiet. When you open your mouth and talk that way, everyone knows what a fool you are-
Stay happy :)
