South Side All Breed Dog Training Club 
Dog misbehaving? If you had to sit in a house, unable to do anything but lay around, what would YOU do? Become so bored you might chew a couch?
- Behavior problems are the number one reason why so many dogs are in our crowded shelters today!! Approximately 8-12 million companion animals enter a shelter nation wide and approximately 5-9 million are euthanized each year. Which can be solved with proper training and patience.
- It is essential for a dog’s mental development to start training in a positive manner.
- It’s good exercise! Number 1 reason dogs developed ‘bad behavior’ is lack of exercise.
- It keeps a great bond between you (your family) and your dog for a lasting family friend.
- Your dog will be well mannered.
- Bragging rights.. You can show off in front of your family and friends!
- The possibility to show your dogs in AKC shows and receive titles.
