Five minutes a day, written for a Spitz. No subscription, no monthly fees, nothing to cancel.

Husky, Malamute, Akita family. Bred down from a 30-pound sled-and-camp dog in the 1800s. The size changed. The guard dog never left.
Until somebody gets up and looks. That is the window, the door, 3 a.m. at nothing.
Dogs bred to watch a face and wait for the order. Yelling = you barking too. Treat when she stops = bark, stop, get paid.
One cue, five minutes a day. Off duty. Then potty, separation and respect the same way.
