I don’t subscribe to the ‘just let the dogs sort it out’ when you have two adult dogs with genuine beef. But for puppies, this is worth its weight in gold when done correctly. Do you agree?

This is Cruze 🦍 a 2YO Rottweiler intact male 🥜

Like a lot of Rottweilers, he had some complicated feelings towards dogs and as a result was pretty frustrated and keen to punch on with most dogs he passed on his walks.

I wish we’d filmed a before video, but I always feel a bit weird filming a dog while it’s just kicking off at the end of the lead.

Anyway, across 4 sessions we’ve taken him from fighting to friendly with Nelson, ignoring dogs on his walks and we’ve just got a few more little creases to iron out.

Cruze went from Level 1 to Level 5 of our DUDT Sociability Scale and I couldn’t be prouder of him and his dad .tattoos! I wanted to share it with you guys.

A walk should be an enjoyable activity for you and your dog, but it SHOULD NOT BE their primary or sole outlet. As a predatory carnivore, our dogs were designed to do a lot more than walk around the same block at 4km/h over and over.

If that’s ALL you’re doing with them, you’re going to be seeing:
- increased likelihood of reactivity due to being pent up and frustrated 😩

- disengagement from your dog who’s seeking something more interesting and fulfilling 🧠

- destructive tendencies at home as they try to release their own energy 🔋

So instead, prioritise playing with them in a way that really gets their breed brain 🧠 ticking!

I don’t meet many dogs who’d prefer 40 minutes of walking over 20 minutes of play.

So find a toy and find a game that your dogs into and prioritise that instead! The benefits will be immediate 🤩
