If you want a well-behaved canine buddy, be ready to devote time, effort, and money for its training, socialization, and positive reinforcement. Here are some of the most common canine behavior issues that many pet owners find a challenge to address.

• Jumping up behavior

When your pooch is used to jumping on people, he would do it whenever he likes to regardless of what you’re wearing. You will probably end up with scratched legs or ruined clothes. They can also knock down children and old people when they jump up on them in greeting. 

• Nonstop barking

Barking is normal in canines however it will be a different story when your dog spends most of the time barking at anything and anyone that catches his fancy. The ruckus that your pet is raising will certainly bother you and the rest of the neighborhood.

• Chewing

Chewing is a normal behavior when puppies are replacing baby teeth with permanent ones. They will soon outgrow this phase. However, there are older dogs that continue to engage in the behavior for various reasons.
