Good questions
Before you begin.
How soon after adoption should I start?
Give the dog a week or two to settle in, then begin with simple routines and short lessons.
Can an older dog change a long-standing habit?
Often yes, with consistent management and rewards. Change tends to come slowly.
Should I check with my vet first?
If there are signs of pain or sudden change, yes. Health problems can mimic behavior problems.
Is a senior dog too old for lessons?
Not usually. Trainers adjust exercises to the dog's comfort and ability.
