We are not talking about replacing the human trainer, in any way, and it also does not nullify the fact that the owner needs to live with his pet and make an effort to train him, but rather, informal assistance, a facilitator, for those who dispense with social interaction or even those who are in an unfavorable financial situation or even without time to travel to a place specialized in training.

Conclusion

Dog training apps are revolutionizing the way owners and trainers approach training and interacting with their pets. These platforms offer a combination of educational resources, interactivity and personalized follow-up, making the training process more accessible, fun and effective.

Overall, these apps represent an innovative and convenient way to improve your dog's skills. Although these applications are useful and effective, they do not replace the importance of interaction and direct involvement between the owner and the dog, much less the profession of the handler.

Face-to-face training, instruction from a professional, close observation and non-verbal communication are essential elements in developing a healthy relationship and building a solid foundation of trust between owner and pet. Apps can be used as guides and additional resources, but it's the personal relationship between owner and dog that really creates the bonds of trust and mutual respect.
