    Most dogs actually enjoy training. It’s another game! One where they get treats for doing the right thing! My dog actually gets antsy if I don’t have him do any trick routines for a few days.

    Edit to say you do you and if your dog and you are happy that’s all that really matters

      Just to clarify: my dog could do tricks and he usually would for snacks, but he didn’t do them if he didn’t want to. Sometimes he would come check if I had a snack for him and if I didn’t he would give me the “do you think I’m stupid” look and walk away.
