Are some behavioral problems (house training, biting, fighting) associated with certain colors?
Not necessarily. Biting and fighting are just how dogs are in general. Any color dog can have difficulty with housetraining. All dogs can learn the basic commands that I teach in the book. These are Sit, Stay, Come and No. In the book I explain how to teach these commands based upon your dog’s personality color. As a clicker trainer, it was interesting to me that you recommend not using clicker training with Red and some Orange dogs. Is it the sound of the clicker, the excitement of the treats, or what? It’s excitement in general. When you think about a Red dog, think about a dog that jumps. He jumps on people, he jumps on furniture, he just jumps and jumps and jumps. I’m not saying you couldn’t clicker train a Red dog, but I think that would not be the fastest way to train him. You want to calm this dog down. Tactile rewards, like petting and stroking, get the Red dog moving towards Yellow. Should people pick the dog color that matches their own personality? No, I wouldn’t say that. Y
