W: I would like to have a dog of my own.  Do you have any ideas of dogs?
M: Oh, dogs are social animals and without proper training, they will behave like wild animals.
W: It sounds terrible.  How will they behave when they are not properly trained?
M: They will spoil your house, destroy your belongings, bark excessively, fight other dogs and even bite you.
W: Then I dare not keep the dog at my home.
M: Don’t be so scared.  The key to preventing or treating behavior problems is learning to teach the dog to redirect its normal behavior to outlets that are acceptable in the domestic setting.
W: Would you please offer me some suggestions on training dogs?
M: Certainly. One of the best things you can do for your dog and yourself is to train it to obey you. Obedience training doesn’t solve all behavior problems, but it is the foundation for solving just about any problem.
W: Is there any other significance of training?
M: Yes. Training opens up a line of communication between you and your dog.  Effective communication is necessary to instruct your dog about what you want it to do.
W: Oh, the relationship between people and dogs seems very important.
M: You are right.
