People reach out to us all the time and ask, Why won't my dog listen to me? There are only three reasons why your dog won’t listen to you. The first is that they don’t know what is expected of them. This often happens when a training program makes sense to the human, but not to the dog.

The second reason your dog won't listen to you is when your dog is over threshold. This means that they are too excited to listen in that moment. When this happens, you need to create a training program to calm your dog down in that moment before you can expect them to listen properly. If your dog is over threshold when they see other dogs, you need to focus on using calming techniques to fix the problem before expecting them to listen to their obedience commands. In this situation we practice a lot of calming techniques on leash using the heel command and teaching your dog to focus on you rather than the other dog.

The third potential reason your dog won't listen to you is that they simply don’t care. This is the least common reason, but it does occur. One challenge we often face is that clients think their dog is being stubborn or willful, but the issue is actually reason number one or two. If your dog doesn't know right from wrong or is over threshold, it is unfair to assume that they are purposely being disobedient.

Please take the time to figure out why your dog isn’t listening and then you can create a plan to fix the issue!
