If walks fill your dog’s bucket - you can give yourself permission to stop walks for a while.
Society tells us, ‘we must walk our dogs every day’, yet for some dogs, this is detrimental to their well-being.
Maybe they get so over excited, that for the rest of the day they are bouncing off the walls. Or maybe your dog is reactive and you know the second they see another dog, they are going to get themselves into such a state that it takes them a good while to calm down.
This creates a constant loop so by time they have hopefully calmed down it is time for their next walk and it starts all over again. They end up spending a good portion of their life in a highly emotive state, which impacts every part of their life.
If your dog struggles on walks and you dream of them having a calmer life, the best way is to put walks on hold while you build up their training at home.
