J. Tyler Wiest the creater of PuppyHideOut.comI grew up near Cleveland surrounded by dogs from the moment I was born. I can’t remember a time when I had a problem and couldn’t get a sloppy kiss from my dogs to cheer me up. Today I have two dogs, a yellow lab Murphy who’s 11 and a golden retriever Lily who’s 5. Most of my experience dog training has been through raising numerous dogs and learning through trial and error the best ways to train a dog. I have lost hundreds of dollars worth of food, furniture, pillows and just about everything else my dogs can fit in their mouth or use the bathroom on. It got to a point where I couldn’t leave food anywhere around my house or I would come home to shredded bags and guilty looking dogs. It was then when I had enough and decided to research proper dog training techniques. It is this knowledge that I wish to share with you so you don’t have the same problems I did. I hope you find my articles helpful for training your own dogs as I have with mine. However mad my dogs made me my philosophy has always been, no matter what they do, no matter how much it cost your dogs with always love you so always love them back!
