a reasonable approach: "try to communicate with them on their level"

What exactly constitutes "dog psychology?"

It's more of a direct communication with your dog instead of training them through human psychology, like "sit" and "stay." You're actually acting like the "alpha" member of the pack, talking to them the way that they understand. Most of the behavioral problems that are dogs have are created by (humans), by mixed messages. Our policy is to respect the dog and try to communicate with them on their level.
