How dog gates can help with your dog training

Dogs in the house need to know who is in charge and what the
house rules are. Not putting rules in place can cause a lot of
problems in the long term, if your dog does not know you are in
charge he might think that he is in charge and this can lead to
problems like the dog getting aggressive. The best way to avoid
this problem is to set firm boundaries for your dog, if he can
physically not do any thing he chooses, but you can, he will see
that you have more access and therefore more authority in the
family. There is no way for you to be in the same room as the
dog all the time and if you were to go from the living room to
the kitchen you could not reasonably be expected to shut the dog
in the living room every time to stop him wondering off, If you
did do this it might cause some separation anxiety, as the dog
is unable to see through the door and does not understand why
you have left him. If you have a tall indoor dog gate fitted,
and they can be fitted with out leaving marks on the door or
wall, then all you need do is open it walk through and close it,
there is now a barrier between you and the dog, so he is unable
to go into the restricted areas of the house, but the dog can
see through it and the anxiety is no longer a problem
