Ulrich Beer, president of the Swiss Canine Society, is calling for compulsory training for first-time dog owners. He expects some prospective dog owners might decide not to buy a dog after learning what’s involved. Dog ​​training for first-time dog owners has been compulsory for a year and a half in the canton of Luzern. In a poll run by SRF, 88% of the nearly 4,500 people who responded were in favour of compulsory training for new dog owners, suggesting such a system would be popular with the public.
