“All training is negotiation, whether you're training dogs or spouses.” — Ian Dunbar Quote

All training is negotiation, whether you're training dogs or spouses.

Training a puppy is like raising a child. Every single interaction is a training opportunity.

Learning from wolves to interact with pet dogs makes about as much sense as, 'I want to improve my parenting - let's see how the chimps do it!'

With every animal, you have to build its confidence around people because people do some crazy and stupid things.

You can instill fear in your kids and get them to mind, but they won't function better in the world and your relationship will suffer greatly.

I was 12 when I got a small part in a movie in Texas. And in my spare time, I play with my dogs and write music and go out with my friends.

The maximum expression of running dogs is the Iditarod. You enter a state of primitive exaltation, and you never return. You're never normal again.

Sometimes, people will just never love dogs.

People are perfectly glad to accept the idea that dogs love us, so they must be able to love each other.

You cannot teach old dogs new tricks.
