Our goal is to have a dog's first home be it's only home through education, understanding, compassion and kindness. Canine Minds and Manners Dog Training — professional dog and puppy training in Calgary, Alberta, Canada with a Certified Behaviour Consultant and Dog Trainer. We believe in thinking differently about how we live with our companion animals, in challenging the traditional ways of looki

ng at life with your dog. We believe that a well mannered dog that you can happily live with is not a dream but a reality. The way we do this is by reinforcing great canine behaviours and providing people and dogs with the skills to confidently manage any situation in the real world, because that’s where we all live. And we also happen to have regularly running innovative, fun dog training classes with two Certified Professional Trainers and Behaviour Consultants where you and your dog can learn and practice these skills in a supportive, safe environment.

Dogs die. But dogs live, too.
Right up until they die, they live.
They live brave, beautiful lives.
They protect their families. And love us.
And make our lives a little brighter.
And they don't waste time
being afraid of tomorrow ..

Coyotes don't lure dogs away to attack. They share similar body language & curiosity, but when coyotes retreat, dogs may not understand and follow, leading to defensive actions! Unlike the photo, leash your dog for their safety! Join Coyote Watch Canada and Toronto Animal Services on Jan 16 (6:30-7:30PM) to learn how to protect pets & wildlife: https://bit.ly/49G4gNw

***
les coyotes n’attirent pas les chiens pour les attaquer? Même s’ils ont une curiosité et un langage corporel semblables, lorsque les coyotes prennent la fuite, les chiens ne comprennent pas toujours leur intention et se mettent à les suivre, ce qui pousse les coyotes à se défendre! Contrairement à la photo, laisse ton chien en laisse pour sa sécurité! Joignez-vous à l’équipe de Coyote Watch Canada et Toronto Animal Services le 16 janvier (de 18 h 30 à 19 h 30) pour apprendre comment protéger les animaux de compagnie et les animaux sauvages : https://bit.ly/4iFQ9fb

I was aware of breed restrictions in Ireland, but nonetheless, it was really sad to see this sign in Kinsale.

Resist the urge to tell your dog off for growling.

Growling is a perfectly normal behaviour and is nothing else but a dog’s way of communicating that they are not happy about something.

If a dog is trying to make the effort to say “you are making me uncomfortable”, why do we tell them off?? Because growling is deemed an undesired behaviour. No one wants a growly dog.

But what’s even less desirable is a dog who will skip any warning signs and go straight for a bite. Bites are super undesirable, trust me.

So if your dog growls, in any situation, stop and think what is making them uncomfortable. Is it physical touch? Is it someone’s getting in their personal space? Is another dog getting too close? Is someone threatening their resources? …

Respect and appreciate the growl. If you do, your dog won’t feel the need to escalate the behaviour beyond the growl. They will learn you got their back and you stop any uncomfortable situation. You got their back.

But if you do continue to tell your dog off for growling, and / or if you continue to create situations where your dog cannot effectively communicate, or if they are not listened to, they WILL escalate their behaviour.

Respect the growl.

Resist the urge to punish it.

Appreciate the warning.
