Many people think a chubby pet is cute and a lean pet is not being fed enough, but studies show that a pet with a healthy weight lives an average of 3 years longer than an overweight pet. Don't focus on weight - focus on body condition!

Puppy socialisation is NOT just about playing with other dogs.

In fact, too much uncontrolled exposure to other dogs can cause so many unintended consequences.

If you have a puppy, make sure you try to work on ALL aspects of socialisation, as listed in the bottom graphic.

Another dog entering your house ?

Some dogs may almost close off their outward emotions when another dog is visiting (and that is what this post shows), they may be stressed.... uncomfortable and struggling but give very few obvious outward signals.

Many people misread situations as there is no growling, barking or show "typical" signals that your dog may usually give.

You may know when your dog likes another........ Outward signals.
You may know when your dog dislikes another..... Outward signals.

However in your and their home..... many dogs can behave completely differently if they are simply tolerating and may even be deeply disturbed by another's presence.






As always everyone is free to share but the post must accompany the visual. Thanks everyone 🙂

Sounds like the perfect solution... kids itching to walk their new dog + over-stretched parents thrilled that their children are taking responsibility and lightening the workload! What's not to love?

Actually quite a LOT.

I can't tell you how many disappointed faces I see when I try to explain why a child walking a dog ALONE *might NOT be* the best idea for anyone!!?

And I get totally it.

If this is your first family dog, a quick spin around the block may look harmless enough - until you consider ALL of the things that can (and DO) go wrong.

Even (mentally and physically) FULLY-GROWN ADULTS get pulled down to the ground, or dragged over to squirrels, skateboards and the neighborhood cat. They accidentally drop leashes, or watch helplessly as their pup slips their collar. They struggle to control their dog around other dogs, or conversely, they panic or freeze when an off-leash dog comes sprinting full-speed towards them (friendly or not friendly.. who knows? They’ll likely find out when it’s too late!)

And this is ONLY a handful of the things that can happen to GROWN UPS… so for kids the stakes are simply exponentially higher.

As a trainer, I’m pretty calculated about where I go, and when I walk my dogs my radar is always activated. Even still, I’ve personally had to dash after my loose dog, I’ve been bitten by a dog who was attacking mine, I’ve seen a dog run over in a school parking lot, and watched a child be literally dragged for 50ft against her will!

So, I hope by sharing the potential risks with you, you can make informed choices about your family dog walking situation:

Here’s my hotlist of things to consider:

Size - of child and dog
Strength - of child and dog
Maturity - of child and dog
Training - of child and dog
Temperament - of child and dog

Then download, print and share our poster.
THESE are my questions to help families size up the COMBINATION of their dog and child to see whether WALKING ALONE together is a SMART call.

Many cases of dogs growling at children. The reality is to ask “why” as this means there is a space violation or an issue of hurt. The dog is simply saying go away and if the child doesn’t listen behavior can escalate. When you have children teaching them how to enjoy the dog and teaching the dog how to enjoy and tolerate and accept children snd their irrational movements is required to avoid any incidents. Don’t assume, KNOW. And no the dog shouldn’t just let a child do anything to them.

Poinsettias are a popular Christmas plant enjoyed by many around the Holiday’s. APCC receives several cases each year regarding cats and dogs eating the foliage. There are numerous inaccuracies regarding the toxicity of Poinsettias. Although, it can cause mild GI upset, such as vomiting and diarrhea, no serious toxicity is expected with exposures
