"However beautiful the strategy you should occasionally look at the results" - Winston Churchill
Scottish Terriers need training!!
The training never stops and should start early on in the pups life. Pups should be exposed to as many things as possible in order to properly socialize and train the pup. This includes other dogs, people, touch, holding and quality time with their mom who will educate them to be proper puppies. The training should continue well into adulthood and truly never stops. I personally have used Cultured Canines in Calgary for training my puppies and adult dogs. They are fantastic so check them out by hitting the button below.
