SMART Dog Walks SMART: Structured Mannered Active Response Training

Training session and exercise in one

I'm a pro But this highly depends on your dogs. Always staying safe.

๐™Ž๐™ฉ๐™ง๐™ช๐™˜๐™ฉ๐™ช๐™ง๐™š๐™™ โ€“ Having a set structure makes the training walk goal orientated. Focusing on specific steps increases success and reduces frustration for you and your dog.

๐™ˆ๐™–๐™ฃ๐™ฃ๐™š๐™ง๐™š๐™™ โ€“ We want your dog to be well-mannered, no chasing, lunging, pulling, and improve their impulse control.

๐˜ผ๐™˜๐™ฉ๐™ž๐™ซ๐™š โ€“ Active and mentally stimulated walks will make sure your dog gets the exercise it needs, reduces its exces

s energy, and alleviate boredom.

๐™๐™š๐™จ๐™ฅ๐™ค๐™ฃ๐™จ๐™š โ€“ By teaching exactly what is required in a certain situation, your dog will know how to respond and think rather than react impulsively.

๐™๐™ง๐™–๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™œ โ€“ Training is the action of teaching an animal a type of behaviour or a particular skill. The targeted behaviour is walking relaxed and confident on a leash; the skill is staying focused on you and keeping the leash in a nice โ€œJ-Formโ€.

Wet paws... happy pups ๐Ÿ˜Š
It's going to be another few days of rainy weather ๐ŸŒฆ๐ŸŒซ
Gladly almost all dogs don't mind the rain as soon as they start walking, sniffing and exploring. There are actually so many more smells to discover and streams to chase! ๐Ÿ•

I'm taking dogs out for walks and training on all save conditions, no excuses ๐Ÿ˜˜

Best walk I had with Turbo! Going from crazy pulling and sniffing to this super loose lead walk! ๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿ˜
Of course he still pulls sometime especially if there's something very interesting to sniff, BUT this decreased massively and walks are much more enjoyable! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ•
Great job to Turbo and his owners by continuing the training!

Someone very cute is showing much potential!
She's also gonna be the boss of her older brother and much older uncle ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿถ

When everyone feels safe, calm and collected, everyone can just chill and mind their own business! No need to lunge, bark or show how has the bigger teeth. ๐Ÿถ
Soooso proud of Sammy, who didn't care less about the other dog, who is usually highly protecting his territory. ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ˜

Remember, there's much more value in being calm and paying attention to the pack leader (the person on the other end of the lead) than going all in for a stressful time with another dog.

โ˜๏ธBUT this has to be taught,
learned and continuously rehearsed!

This is a few minutes into his walk and only a short snippet, but sooo much improvement already: he listens, he follows, he engages! ๐Ÿ’ช slowly learning and understandingthat life is easier (for dog and human) if structure and manners are followed ๐Ÿ˜‰
Keep going Turbo!
Disclaimer: this one-finger-walk is only for demonstration purposes! Do not walk your dog like this!

P.S. his collar is too loose and too far down on this video

P.P.S. watch out for the before video!

๐ŸŽ“ Today's wisdom "The harder you work for something, the greater you'll feel when achieving it!" ๐Ÿ’ช

So maybe your most troubling dog may feel like the hardest challenge at this moment, but keep working hard and you will have the GREATEST relationship! Good things don't come easy ๐Ÿ˜‰

One finger walk! ๐ŸŽ‰ ๐Ÿถ
Naturally it still takes time for Hugo the Husky to stop pulling, especially at the beginning of the walk, but the time it takes to get to a calmer and more engaged walk is getting less and less! Look at this beautiful mannered walk ๐Ÿ‘
You deserve all the cuddles!
