To set the scene, Jason and Lorelei Robbins own Cornerstone Dog Training, where their goal is giving dogs the foundation and training they need for a lifetime. Over time, Jason encounters a handful of crazy situations. He notices that a lot of the big issues could be solved with training that starts early on in a dog’s life.
