This is so true - dogs are not your babies. Clear leadership boundaries and no fear of saying no to them
Modern dog training talks a lot about positivity.
Yet out and about day to day we’re seeing more unstable, reactive, and aggressive behavior than ever.
That’s not a coincidence…
Most dogs that explode on leash aren’t damaged, aggressive or dangerous.
They’re confused.
They lack leadership, clarity, boundaries, and a role that gives their energy direction.
After all, dogs aren’t children.
When dogs are handled with hesitation and excuses are at the forefront of our mind, confidence doesn’t grow, insecurity does.
So for the good of dogs… please don’t demonise saying no and laying clear boundaries of behaviour ❤️
