PRINCIPLE 10 OF 10
None of the other nine principles hold up without this one. Using the same rules, cues, and rewards every single time is what turns a good training session into a lasting change.
Same Rules, Every Day
Whole Household Trained
The Principle That Anchors the Rest
Consistency means the whole household enforces the same boundaries the same way, not just during scheduled training time, but every single interaction with the dog, all week long.
A rule that applies on Monday but not Saturday, or with one family member but not another, teaches a dog that rules are optional, which undoes even excellent training.
Consistency is what turns one good session into a permanent change.
Every Marin K9 program includes tutoring for the whole household, so the structure, cues, and consequences you learn in a session are the same ones being used at home, every day.
The same rules, from the same people, every single day.
The same dog, the same walk, two very different approaches.
BEFORE
AFTER
Consistency is the difference between a great session and a lasting change. Let’s get your whole household on the same page.
