As a side-note:
I have also worked for many years now with animals in the film industry, both in stunts and as an animal wrangler. This has helped broaden my education and perspective in my work as an animal behaviourist. It's so fun and I am forever grateful to have explored these diverse avenues working with animals! Of course the BEST teachers are the animals themselves...if we simply allow ourselves to open up and listen.

So…. Shyly but excitedly, I’d like to share that an interview I did with CBC’s Darrell Roberts, and featuring one of the most generous humans in every aspect, Gemma M. Hickey, will be on the radio waves tomorrow morning at 07:40 on CBC 88.5.
Followed by TV and web in coming days !
I still haven’t processed or computed this!!

Happy Monday Everyone!!
Here's a little Tip of the Week:
If you have a high energy pup or dog who gets easily excited, make an effort to bring your own energy level down when interacting with your pooch... this means bringing your tone and body language down to help achieve calm and balance.
We often don't realize how much our dogs mirror our own energy levels (including our frustration!). So if we don't make a big deal of coming and going for example, and getting overly excited each time we do, the level of our dogs' energy around these "events" will calm.

Throwback!
While cleaning up my photo library, I was reminded of Lulu... a beautiful St. Bernard deemed unadoptable due to aggression that I rehabilitated while volunteering at an SPCA when I was living in ON a number of years ago. I’m so thankful to all the animals in my life who have been my teachers! And happy ending was she found her forever home:)

Having a dog with great Obedience does not always = having a dog with manners and respectful behaviour.
I have seen many clients whose dogs have passed obedience with flying colours who are still challenged with unruly behaviour and worse.
If you find yourself in this same situation, there IS help available! I can give you the tools needed to develop manners and respect to help you evolve into a happy relationship with your dog:-)

Using food/ treats for training is a beautiful tool. People often put a false deadline on using food to train, feeling it should be unnecessary past a certain time or age.
I believe as long as you are successfully molding the behaviours and manners you're looking to achieve, then continuing to use this "tool" is beneficial until you have it ingrained in the brain!

I'm an encourager of crating pups for a 'time-out' if they are behaving like possessed demons!! People often misunderstand this as a punishment tactic - but like everything, it's ALL IN THE DELIVERY! You don't reprimand the dog and then put it in its crate. You put it in there with no red-lined emotion (particularly anger), or attachment and shut the door. This is not mean, it's a helpful calming tool for both the dog (given dogs are primitively comfortable and safe in their den) and owner without confrontation or punishment:-)
