Congratulations on being a hero to a dog in need! You have the highest intention to give your rescue dog a peaceful, happy life. However, without the knowledge of what rescue dogs truly need, your dog could develop behavior problems as early as two weeks after adoption.
Learning how to parent your dog traditionally happens through dog training. For decades the generally accepted training approach has been to focus primarily on obedience cues such as “come,” “stay,” “sit,” “down,” and “heel.” It is such a popular technique that it is offered in every big brand pet store and by practically every dog trainer. By 2026, it is expected that dog training services in the U.S. market will exceed $820 million. Despite these numbers, obedience training can often prolong behavior problems, rather than fix them.
Over the past 20 years working with families and dogs, I have seen that dogs who can obey up to ten commands are still engaging in unwanted behaviors such as pulling their owners on the walk, lunging out at people or other dogs, frantically patrolling the backyard, barking all day long, growling at family members, biting people, and fighting with other animals in the home.
These types of behaviors prevent families from taking their dogs out, having guests over, or participating in the activities they desire to do with their dog. Even though obedience training is popular and lucrative, it is failing thousands of owners.
Why is that? Because compliance training does not reach the root cause of the problem. To find lasting resolution, families need a different approach, one that moves beyond obedience training and into relationship-based training.
Your relationship with your dog is more important than any command. The quality of that relationship will determine your dog's behavior, not how many treats you give them. Your dog is looking to you for leadership, safety, and internal peace. Once your dog has those needs met, their behavior will resolve.
"Of course, your intention in adopting a dog is more than bringing that dog into a comfortable, loving home; it’s about giving your dog the safety and the freedom to truly let go of their past so they can return to their authentic, happy selves. When you can facilitate this transformation in your dog, you affirm that the true rescue of a dog is rescuing their mind, creating internal peace, and revitalizing the spirit of your dog."

“Nate's book is an exceptional guide that blends solid techniques with empathy for both dogs and their owners. The author's direction is clear and supportive, offering practical strategies with an emphasis on love and empathy. (You can still snuggle and play with your dog!). Each chapter unfolds with expert advice on positive reinforcement and effective communication, fostering a bond built on trust and mutual respect. My dogs are rescues and their anxiety has improved significantly since I started to follow Nates techniques.”

“Before Nate Dog Training, my rescue dog, Rosie, age 1.5, was in control of me or at least she felt like she needed to be in charge at all times. She would pull on walks, bark at other dogs, fearful of people, and generally stressed out in all environments. Much like her, I also needed training to regain leadership and have a better understanding of what messages I was communicating with my pup. With Nate’s expertise, Rosie and I have come so far in just a couple months! We enjoy walks, able to explore new environments, and building skills around new dogs and people. I am very thankful for this new relationship with my Rosie.”
