Picking the Right Puppy
There’s no surefire way to avoid getting a troublesome puppy. Some dogs are simply aggressive. Some are the product of abusive homes or owners. Whatever the case, these kinds of dogs can be put through extensive behavioral training, but there are no guarantees that all their dog behavior problems will be eliminated. So be educated before you go looking for your new family pet.
For example, test the aggressiveness of the puppy by gentle holding him on his back. If the dog struggles against your hold, it’s one indication that your dog might display aggressive, alpha dog tendencies. If the puppy, however, allows you to hold him and submits to your superiority, it is more likely that you’ll have an obedient dog on your hands. Regardless of the temperament of your new dog, however, know that successful training stems from understanding the temperament of your dog. If needed, seek some the aid of a professional or employ aids, such as SportDog training collars.

Characteristics of Hound Dogs
Beagle
Most hounds share the common ancestral trait of being used for hunting. Some use acute scenting powers to follow a trail. Others demonstrate a phenomenal gift of stamina as they relentlessly run down quarry. Beyond this, however, generalizations about hounds are hard to come by, since the Group encompasses quite a diverse lot. There are Pharaoh Hounds, Norwegian Elkhounds, Afghans and Beagles, among others. Some hounds share the distinct ability to produce a unique sound known as baying. You’d best sample this sound before you decide to get a hound of your own to be sure it’s right for you
Sight hounds are sleek and speedy, the Maseratis of the dog world, while scent hounds are more like tough and reliable off-road vehicles. Both types have been bred for centuries to work independently, so they have minds of their own and aren’t the kind of dog to respond to commands without hesitation. The use of a remote dog training collar would come in handy here.
Hounds can be trained, but they want to understand why you’re asking them to do something. If they don’t believe it’s a good idea, they’re very likely to ignore you and do their own thing.

Characteristics of Working Dogs
Alaskan Malamute
Dogs of the Working Group were bred to perform such jobs as guarding property, pulling sleds and performing water rescues. They have been invaluable assets to man throughout the ages. The Doberman Pinscher, Siberian Husky and Great Dane are included in this Group, to name just a few. Quick to learn, these intelligent, capable animals make solid companions. Their considerable dimensions and strength alone, however, make many working dogs unsuitable as pets for average families. And again, by virtue of their size alone, these dogs must be properly trained. The use of a dog training collar would be very helpful in training this type of dog.
With a couple of exceptions, such as the Alaskan Malamute and Siberian Husky–breeds too people-oriented to be guard dogs–they’re protective. This protectiveness may become a problem if they don’t have lots of positive human interaction and the right training.
Characteristics of Companion Dog Breeds
Companion Dog - Cavalier King Charles Spaniel
Every breed was created for a reason, and the companion dogs are no exception. Their job is to keep people company, perhaps the most important work a dog can do.
Some are miniaturized versions of working dogs, and some were created solely as beautiful lap dogs–but without exception, they are all dog. The tiniest of them have no idea that they aren’t as big or strong as other dogs, and they have the heart and courage of a Mastiff concealed in their small bodies.
That’s an endearing quality, but it also means they need to be protected from themselves. Often they’ll take on bigger dogs or even human intruders and can easily be injured or killed for their trouble. This is where it is sometimes necessary to use a remote dog training collar.
In size they range from tiny four-pounders to sturdier 20- to 40-pounders. As a group, they’re housedogs, unsuited to living outdoors. Their main goal in life is to be with their people, and they’ll wilt if left to themselves for long hours day after day.
