A big congratulations to Moose on completing his Bronze training package! 🥳🐾

This sweet boy has made some wonderful progress learning to manage his excitement, make calmer choices, and redirect away from those puppy teeth. His biggest win is that the mouthing that originally brought his family to training has improved tremendously!

We’re so proud of how far he’s come!

Sound up! ⬆️ Listen to Gibson’s adorable puppy grumbles/growling as he plays with his flirt pole. So cute! ☺️

A common question I am asked is if it is ok to play with your dog when they are growling and if it will encourage aggression.

The answer is: Yes! It’s totally normal for dogs to growl while playing and it does not encourage aggression.

Think of kids playing on the playground. 👧 They are often screaming while they play yet they aren’t in danger. Sometimes they might scream because they fall, get hurt, or are scared but that’s when you use body language to determine what is actually going on.

It’s the exact same idea with dogs and puppies. Sometimes they may growl because they are having fun but they might also growl because they are scared or unsure of something. This is where paying attention to body language becomes so important.

Watch how Gibson’s body is loose and playful. That’s what helps us know his growls are just him saying woohoo this is so fun!

Key point: 🔑 Growling is a form of communication that can sometimes express excitement or enthusiasm.
