Dog Training

I discovered my love for training dogs when I got my latest dog. She is 1 year and 6 months and is a Belgian Malinois. I enjoy training her because she is intelligent, energetic, playful and an affectionate dog. I enjoy spending time with her. The breed that she is needs to work so training her is a breeze.
