[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another thing I think can help is very basic dog training videos on YouTube -- dogs respond to training easily and it could help your daughter feel more in control if she knew a hand signal that could make a dog sit, etc. Or maybe things like the WeRateDogs top 5 dogs of the week videos?[/quote] How woke this help if the dog is not trained in those commands?[/quote] Dog training isn't really training the dog - it's training the person. There are hand signals that can be tied to each verbal command and dogs typically instinctively sit when you give the hand signal for sit without the verbal command. That said, I don't expect that OP's kid will be out on the street training dogs, just that she could use it to feel more in control. [/quote] The dog still has to know the signals. [/quote]
