#1 – Learn Your Pit Bull’s Language

What better way to improve your relationship and deepen your bond than to understand your Pit Bull better? In order to do that, you need to learn how they communicate through body language. Dr. Sophia Yin’s website has a host of free body language posters that can help you learn to speak “dog,” which your Pittie will greatly appreciate.

#2 – Play

Play is an easy and fun way to bond with your Pit Bull. Any game he enjoys is fine, just as long as you’re doing it together! Agility trainers encourage play with their students because they have found it creates dogs that listen better and work harder for their owners.

#3 – Training

Training gives your Pit Bull the mental stimulation he needs while strengthening your relationship. When you and your Pittie train together, you are learning to communicate with each other, and that goes a long way to create a lasting bond. And Pitties love the work, so you will have a happier dog!
