The wealth of resources that you can find today in the form of books and videos often makes it possible to successfully train your dog to behave in a manner that you find appropriate. There's nothing wrong with attempting to train your pet yourself, but if you find that you're struggling to do so, you'll want to involve a professional right away. Find an experienced dog trainer in your community and contact him or her to discuss your animal's behavioral issues, and then set up a session to see what progress the trainer can make with the pet.

Service dogs are highly trained canines that can help people who have disabilities. Some common types of service dogs include mobility assistance dogs, seizure response dogs, therapy dogs, psychiatric service dogs, and seeing-eye dogs. Of course, these dogs are not born will the skills to be a service dog--they must go through extensive training. Whether you are interested in having a service dog for yourself or a family member or you are interested in training a dog who will then become the companion of a stranger, having your dog attend service dog training school is a must.
