Selbst- und Impulskontrolle: Ihre Wichtigkeit scheint im Hundetraining unbestritten. Hunde mit guter Selbstkontrolle sind "brav" und "gehorsam". Doch was ist denn Selbstkontrolle überhaupt?

Diesen Fragen gehe ich in dieser Folge von Rund um Hund auf den Grund - mit teilweise überraschenden Erkenntnissen.
