Teach people that through positive reinforcement dogs will behave properly

The Issue

The number one reason people leave their dogs in shelters or let them get lost in the street is: bad behavior. 

Dogs wish to please their owners, but we expect them to understand our language, when we should learn theirs.

When we want a dog to behave, we should teach the dog that each time he does something right, we will reward him with our voice, presence, treat, playing with him, or whatever the dog wants in that moment.

Positive reinforcement does not mean to bribe a dog with treats, but to praise him and aknowledge his good work by giving him what he wants.

Let's teach at least 5 (who did not know) people to understand positive reinforcement, so there can be less homeless animals.
