This is because it makes it easier to communicate with your dog, thus being able to immediately eliminate any behavioral problem. Also, dogs being as loyal as they are, jump at any opportunity to please their master, compliance with your commands is one of them. This also makes playtime and walks more enjoyable, you have better control when he/she is meeting or interacting with new people. There is no end to the joy a properly obedience trained dog brings.
