The saying that old dogs can't learn new tricks is the worst lie in the history of forever! Happy days with you and your four legged friend! :) One of my dogs is 14 and I’m teaching him all kinds of new tricks.

Your "trainer" friend says THAT is too old? What does she do, start training dogs the second they pop out of their mom and then stop training them when they're weaned off because that's "too old"? As far as I know, you can still teach a dog SOMETHING until it's dead in it's grave. A year and three months? Your "trainer" friend says THAT is too old?

The "trainer" that said that, obviously knows little-none about training dogs. ANY dog and ANY age can be trained and trained the same as a puppy would be. It might take a bit longer as they have been set in their ways with no direction or discipline, but it can be done with consistency and set rules. Good luck and I wish you and your companion fun training and learning together ! OF course not. The "trainer" that said that, obviously knows little-none about training dogs.

Have you ever watched the dog wisperer? He trains dogs that are years and years older. The trick is to understand that dogs are pack animals. If you do not step up as the leader of the pack, your dog will. You need to be consistent. I would strongly recomend finding a good trainer (not petco!). But if money is an issue, read some books. Go to Amazon.com and do a search for Ceasar Millan, his books would be a good starting place. No, one year old dogs are still very trainable! Have you ever watched the dog wisperer?

Any dog, no matter the age can still have a chance at being trained. With the help of a reputable obedience school, and your love and patience, your dog should be able to get trained to learn commands and also behave well. Sign up your dog for a beginner obedience course at a good obedience school in your area and prove your friend wrong! Don’t listen to your friend.

She probably wont ever be a seeing eye dog or anything but you can teach her basic commands.

Any dog of any age can be trained. All it takes is the trainer to be patient and consistent. Do not listen to your family friend. She obviously doesn't know a thing about dogs. Perhaps you should enrol in obedience classes. You could also pick up a book on training to help you do it right. I really like the book "Dog Training for Dummies". Maybe give that one a shot. http://www.amazon.com/Dog-Training-Dummies-Pets/dp/0470600292/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1281044645&sr=8-1 She is absolutely wrong. Any dog of any age can be trained.

Also, I recommend two TV shows, "The Dog Whisperer" with Cesar Millan on the National Geographic Channel, and "It's Me or the Dog," with Victoria Stillwell, on Animal Planet. Both programs are very instructive and often deal with the issues you raise here. Good luck!
