Forum:Sims 2 Pets: What's obedience?



I'm playing The Sims 2 Pets (with several other expansion packs) on PC and I just encountered a want I've not seen before. My family has a new puppy and one of my sims has a want related to the puppy. I'm not playing the game in English, so I can't give you the exact wording, but it translates as "[puppy's name] is obedient". It's worth +8 000 points and it has the symbol of the puppy with a badge that looks like a pet career symbol.

Does this mean my sim wants the pet to reach the top of its career? Or does he want the pet to learn all the tricks? Or something else?
