TRAINING FOR MY DOG

If you have never had to break up a dog fight, count yourself lucky! I hope that you never do. But for those who have – or have come close – it's important to watch for early signs that a fight could occur and have
management and training in place to prevent or
de-escalate a potential fight whenever possible.
