❗️Stop comparing your dogs!❗️
Every dog comes with their own personality, history, genetics, and learning style.
One dog may be bold and ready to try anything, while another needs time to warm up and understand the world.
One dog may light up for food or toys, while another disconnects the moment the environment feels overwhelming.
When you compare them, you’re not actually helping either dog, you’re placing expectations on them that don’t match who they truly are.
That’s when frustration builds, progress slows, and training becomes stressful instead of empowering.
But when you pause and train the dog in front of you, everything changes.
You start noticing their strengths.
You adjust to their struggles.
You make decisions based on their needs, not a memory of how your last dog behaved or how someone else’s dog learns.
Training isn’t about creating duplicates.
It’s about honoring the individual.
Support them where they are, celebrate who they are becoming, and give them the space to be their own unique dog.
