#1 When we are selecting a dog or addressing specific behaviors with our existing canine partner, we must be sure that we are looking at the whole animal. We don’t want to fall in love with a dog that is doomed to fail, and we don’t want to give up prematurely when there may be a simple solution.

#2 The L. E. G. S. system is a framework for understanding the many factors that affect your dog’s behavior. It ensures that no stone goes unturned. The external environment is a powerful factor in your dog’s behavior, just like it is for every species on earth.

#3 The physical features and behaviors of dogs are the result of their being purposefully selected for the behaviors they expressed. The environment must fit the animal, and vice versa. Dogs look so different from each other because they are so different from each other.

#4 The last pillar of L. E. G. S. is the self, which is the internal factors that are unique to each individual dog. Your dog is a one-in-a-million individual creature with likes and dislikes that make him unique and special.
