Hello,
I think my 1 yr old rottweiler is very smart and I have been teaching him to identify animals. He knows the word puppy, kitty, piggy and horsey. I did not see any harm in this when I say the animals name he will look for it and wag his tail and just watch it walk by or watch it on Television. Unless if I say " go play with the puppy" then he will run up to the dog. A dog trainer saw me point out a kitty to my pup and said how dangerous it is to draw attention to an animal walking by. She said that it would make him get exicted and possibly attack.
Does anyone have any reasons on why this could be bad to teach a dog? Has anyone done the same?
I am just curious of people's opnions, thanks!
