4. Trust inspires loyalty
When you bring a new dog into your home it may take time to form the bonds of a loving relationship. Puppies are the easy ones because they are naturally dependent, but adult dogs may have a harder time learning to trust, especially if they have been neglected or abused by a previous owner.
Establishing trust is vital between a dog of any age and their owner if there is going to be a degree of loyalty. The way to help a dog understand that he can trust you is to not do anything that would shatter his faith in you. This includes hitting, yelling or depriving him of food, shelter, or affection. Provide the dog with what he reasonably needs and if you have a bad day, avoid taking it out on him. old row dog collar
