We talk a lot about the benefits of dog training for the dog, but we rarely discuss what dog training can do for YOU!
1. Critical thinking 
Most of us start training our dogs because the dog is doing something we don't like. The best way to fix this is to teach the dog what you would like instead. This takes some thought and planning before you start. Dog training can teach you critical thinking skills, such as developing a plan for a goal.
2. Dog training can bring you great joy when using positive reinforcement.
You release endorphins every time you give something to the dog that it enjoys. Dog training can teach you to give instead of punish, which in turn improves the quality of your life.
3. Dog training can improve your mental and physical health.
Seeing the world from another perspective can develop compassion. Compassion and being thankful have been well-documented to improve human heart and brain health.
If you train your dog, it will likely behave better. This will allow you to take your dog to more places and get more exercise.
4. Dog training can improve your social life.
We often hear that a client doesnt want to go to some event because they can't take the dog (for behavioral reasons) and don't want to leave the dog home alone. Dog training can help improve your social life and that of your dog.
5. Dog training can prevent accidents that could cause you great harm. 
Using dog training to teach a really reliable recall can benefit you in many ways. You can enjoy the freedom of allowing your dog to run, which a leash prevents. A recall can bring a dog back to run for safety. An excellent recall can prevent your dog from running in the street if they escape.
