Dog Health Questions: Want to Know the 10 Most Common Dog Training Problems?

I am doing research and am trying to locate the top problems that owners have with their dogs. I would imagine that housebreaking, etc would be on the list...but I am looking for a survey that details what dog owners state as their most common problems.

Dog Training Schools - Which Dogs Are Best Suited


  • I wouldn't put housebreaking on the list because almost everyone is pretty focused on starting that early. It may be the biggest one people think of but there's tons of nutcase dogs that won't pee in the house

    My top 10 would be:
    1. Not getting the dog enough exercise- it's hard to train a hyper dog
    2. Disciplining the dog way to long after the incident (actually that one has to do with housebreaking among other things)
    3. Not being consistent
    4. Improper socialization
    5. Failure to properly train recall
    6. Constantly repeating commands and not enforcing the first one
    7. Training like you dog can reason (no she's not actually trying to piss you off, even though it might seem like it)
    8. Not spending enough time training on a regular basis
    9. Excessive use of physical discipline
    10. Not crate training or doing it improperly

  • There are many training problems. I will say, though, that the most COMMON training problem is ignorance and stupidity on the owners part. Most "major" problems are easily trained out with time, effort, and the proper methods for THEIR dog (if a method isn't working, try something else!)

    As far as my most common problems:
    My dog pulls sometimes. However, he is in extensive private training, and it is quickly becoming a fading problem.
    And... that's it, really. No other problems here. It's all about time and commitment.

  • Potty training, Aggressive issues, Obsessive behaviors ect. barking, howling,Destructive behavior, damaging, destroyed, Socialization. Feeding and training schedule. and more.
