While there’s no limit to the information you can get about training dogs and cats on the Internet, taking part in training programs at your local humane society or with a private trainer can be a great first step. At the humane society, classes are usually held in groups and focus on general behaviors.

One of the greatest tools in pet behavior therapy is pheromone technology. These aromatic chemicals are naturally produced by animals and sent through the air or in liquid form to communicate information. Using special receptors, other animals receive and respond.

The first thing you need to know is that you’re not alone. Like humans, most dogs and cats will make a mistake sometime in their lives. Being aware of common cat and dog behavior problems will help you be better prepared to help you and your pet.
