Kyle's Customized Dog Training

DOG BREED DOESN'T DETERMINE PERSONALITY.

Very often I see people and other trainers talk about dog breeds in a very generalized fashion. I think that we can all easily fall into the rabbit hole that is dog breeds. Although that is an important aspect of owning a dog, we tend to forget to look at the dog right in front of us.

Each dog is an individual and we should treat them that way. For example not every golden retriever is going to be super happy go lucky and not every german shepard is cut out for protection work. Understanding your dog has it's own temperament and personality is crucial to your relationship.

Finally, make sure to just enjoy the dog you got comparing them to other dogs will only make it harder. One of the best things we can do for them is understand them as an individual and continue to help them be the best versions of themselves.
