Potty Training Puppies On A Farm Isn’t As Important As In The City
Posted on Jul 23, 2009 under Family activities |Puppies and chickens co-exist pretty well.
Potty training puppies isn’t a topic you’ll hear many farmers talking about. With all that’s involved in running a modern day farm, it would be low on the list.
In the city, where dogs spend most of their time inside, potty training is very important. On a farm, dogs can spend most of their days outside.
The type of dog training for a farm dog depends on whether the dog is going to be a pet or a working dog. A puppy that is going to be a pet would go through training much like a city dog.
However, a working dog, such as a Shetland Sheepdog (which is a herding dog) would require extensive training. If you’ve seen the 1995 movie ‘Babe’, you’ll have a good idea of a working dog’s life.
Despite the differences in training, a city dog and a farm dog can still be a person’s best friend.
