Our belief is that the majority of problem behaviors occur due to a breakdown in communication between the owner and their dog. Owners hold the keys to success when training their dogs, they just don’t know how to properly use them. Our goal is to educate owners on the benefits of positive training methods. Once communication is set up on an effective level, then training becomes easy. Training sh

ould be fun for the dog and the owner and prove beneficial in creating a benevolent bond between them. Training should be an enjoyable time for all involved. If you have never laughed or cheered while training your dog…you are doing it wrong. Let us show you how to enjoy your pet again and lets work together to “keep Fido out of the doghouse”.

“He’s so good with the kids… he lets them do anything to him.”

It’s one of the most common things we hear from families.

But here’s the question: Should they have to?

A dog who quietly tolerates climbing, hugging, grabbing, or being disturbed isn’t necessarily enjoying those interactions. Many dogs communicate their discomfort in subtle ways long before they ever growl—and when those signals are missed, both dogs and children are put at risk.

Our newest blog post, “Our Dog Is So Good, He Lets the Kids Do Anything to Him,” explores why this common belief can be misleading and how small changes can make a big difference in keeping both children and dogs safe.

The use of a stuffed dog is a great way to gain information on possible dog/dog interactions. Although it’s not a perfect replacement for a real dog, it is a wonderful way to safely test and work with reactive issues.

We see photos like this all the time. A child hugging a dog. A ‘cute’ moment. Something worth sharing.

But what if we look closer?

The dog isn’t relaxed. The body is stiff. The ears are back. The eyes are squinted. These aren’t signs of happiness — they’re signs of discomfort.

What looks adorable to us can feel overwhelming, stressful, or even threatening to our dogs.

This is why the first pillar of Dog Aware is Body Language. It’s a foundational pillar because when we can read how a dog is feeling, we can step in, create space, listen to their whispers and prevent dog bites before they happen.

Many bites don’t come “out of nowhere” — they come after subtle signals that were missed.

Cute doesn’t always mean comfortable.

And learning to read body language keeps both kids and dogs safe.
