Hi there um I am a cat person and used to animals that are pretty independent and have recently have adopted a very very stubborn and high energy dog. This dog is also very needy and tries to control both my boyfriend and I . I am completely at a lost on where to begin with this dog and I have joined this site after having two trainers fail to make real progress with the dog and I am looking for help!

Hi and welcome to the forum :)

Congrats on your new guy (or gal), and I'm glad you chose to adopt, even though you are finding it difficult.

To help, we're gonna need a bit more info...
Breed? Age? Sex? Neutered? Any history on it? What exactly is the dog doing, that's the problem?
