Training Doesn’t End When Your Dog Comes Home 🐾

Sending your dog to a professional trainer is a powerful step toward a well-behaved, balanced companion — but it’s only the beginning of the journey.

📌 If you don’t continue the training at home, reinforce boundaries, and stay consistent with structure, all the progress your dog made can quickly fade.

Think of training like learning a new language — your dog needs daily practice and clear communication to keep understanding the “rules.”

✅ Follow through with what the trainer taught
✅ Stay consistent with routines and expectations
✅ Be patient and lead with confidence

Remember: a trainer can lay the foundation, but you are the key to lasting success. Your dog is always learning — make sure you're teaching the right lessons. 🐶💪

Meet Dexter. He had already worked with at least two other trainers in hopes of addressing his reactivity toward people—without success. His owner came to us last weekend for a one-on-one evaluation, hoping for a solution as we were his last chance.

Through that session, we identified that Dexter’s reactivity was rooted in fear. With that understanding, we tailored our approach specifically to his needs. Just one weekend later, his owner reports significant progress and is genuinely surprised by the improvement.

"Train the dog in front of you—not the one in the textbook."

Every dog is unique. True progress comes from taking the time to understand their individual needs, not just applying a one-size-fits-all method.

🎯 Tailored Tips for Every Dog Personality 🐾
Not all dogs learn or thrive the same. Here’s how to support YOUR pup based on their personality or breed type👇

🔋 HIGH-ENERGY DOGS (Malinois, Huskies, Collies)
👉 Need 2–3 hrs of activity
🧠 Add puzzle toys & training games
🦴 Mental workouts = calmer evenings

😨 FEARFUL/TIMID DOGS (Rescues, Chihuahuas, Whippets)
🛏 Create a safe retreat zone
🐕 Slow socialization, positive-only training
🎉 Celebrate tiny wins—like sniffing or tail wags!

💔 SEPARATION ANXIETY DOGS (Labs, Shepherds, Velcro Breeds)
⏱️ Start with short departures
🎵 Use calming music or scent items
🧸 Keep departures/returns low-key

🧠 STUBBORN BUT SMART DOGS (Shibas, Dachshunds, Terriers)
🐾 Keep sessions short + rewarding
💬 Let them "choose" sometimes
📏 Stay consistent—they’ll test limits!

🐶 GENTLE COMPANION DOGS (Pugs, Cavaliers, Goldens)
🤗 Thrive with human connection
🚶‍♂️ Gentle walks & play
💤 Don’t leave them alone too long

**🐾 Summer Safety Alert: Heatstroke in Dogs 🐾**
*Protect your pup from the summer heat!*

---

# # # 🔥 What is Heatstroke?

Heatstroke, also called **heat exhaustion or hyperthermia**, occurs when a dog’s body temperature rises above normal (usually over **104°F / 40°C**), and they can’t cool down effectively. It’s a life-threatening emergency!

---

# # # 🐶 Why Are Dogs at Risk?

Dogs **don’t sweat** like humans. They cool off mostly through **panting** and small amounts of sweating through their paws. On hot or humid days, this isn’t enough to regulate their body temperature.

---

# # # ☀️ Common Causes

* Left in a **hot car** (even with windows cracked)
* **Exercise in high heat**
* **Lack of shade or water**
* **Hot pavement** or surfaces
* **Brachycephalic breeds** (like Bulldogs or Pugs) are at greater risk

---

# # # 🚨 Warning Signs of Heatstroke

Watch for these signs:

* Excessive **panting** or drooling
* **Bright red tongue** or gums
* **Vomiting** or diarrhea
* **Lethargy** or collapse
* **Confusion** or seizures
* Body feels hot to the touch

---

# # # 🆘 What to Do if You Suspect Heatstroke

1. **Move** your dog to a cool, shaded area immediately.
2. Use **cool (not cold)** water to wet them down.
3. Offer **small amounts of cool water** to drink.
4. **Use a fan** or air conditioning to help cool them.
5. **Call your vet or emergency clinic** right away!

⛔ DO NOT use ice or ice-cold water—it can cause shock.

---

# # # ✅ Prevention Tips

* **Never** leave dogs in cars
* **Walk early or late**, avoid midday heat
* **Provide shade** and fresh, cool water at all times
* Use **cooling mats or vests**
* Avoid **hot pavement** (if it’s too hot for your hand, it’s too hot for paws!)

---

# # # 🐕 Know Your Breed’s Risk

Higher-risk breeds include:

* Bulldogs, Pugs, Boxers
* Older or overweight dogs
* Dogs with heart or breathing problems
* Thick-coated breeds like Huskies or Malamutes

---

**Stay Safe. Stay Cool. Keep Tails Wagging This Summer**
