The sign in the shop window was small and did not say much except to announce dog training NYcoming soon. Although this was a somewhat mild introduction this was actually big news to anyone who knew Milton Eubanks and realized that he was also the proud owner of dog training NJ. This was a man who believed in what he was doing enough to not just lease but to purchase buildings from which to operate his canine instruction businesses. He had customers who were willing to wait months to secure his services and he was becoming well known in the world of puppy guidance and education.

Milton had always been a fan of his four-footed friends and had developed a gentle way of dealing with them. He had not considered the field of canine instruction until he had discovered he had a talent that was being tapped frequently by people that he knew. In addition, he found out that these people were eager to pay generously for his help in developing a well-disciplined animal that they could trust and enjoy more fully. From the beginning, Milton created a business that was user-friendly by insisting on these four commitments from canine owners:

1. Every puppy would arrive precisely on time and be on a leash even if it seemed to be well-behaved and calm by nature. He knew that there would be other animals who were having trouble behaving and that they would create a disturbance if given the chance until they were well-disciplined enough to control their impulses. His desire was to avoid a situation on the premises that would create unwanted publicity for his business.

2. Each owner had to sign a form promising to attend each class along with their puppy. The theory behind this was that a well-instructed owner holds the key to a well-behaved pet so attendance by the same family member who would take the lead in discipline was mandatory.

3. Each pet owner was required to commit to spending sixty minutes daily performing prescribed drills with his or her pet that were designed to encourage obedience from the animal. Failing to provide this continuity would create an atmosphere where the pet would realize that they were not being held to the same strict regimen all of the time.

4. Every client was given a sheet with detailed suggestions for diet supplements, scheduled visits to a veterinarian and even grooming hints to in order to guide the owner toward healthy living and eating for his puppy. This type of specific instruction was usually met with surprise from the client but most expressed appreciation after a while when they discovered that the knowledge that Milton imparted created a puppy that was healthy, well-behaved and committed to its owner.

Because Milton used these four strategies and insisted on cooperation from his clients, he found himself in a successful business that produced well-disciplined puppies and also customers who found that his way of dealing with animals showed wonderful results.
