oooo jump on this info!

When your dog chews on a raw recreational bone🦴, especially a meaty one🍖 with cartilage and soft tissue still attached, their teeth🦷 get the equivalent of a good brushing and flossing, but they’re doing the work, not you. In fact, one study found offering dogs raw bones removed the majority of plaque🪥 and tartar from the molars and the first and second premolars in less than three days!

Sadly, there are dogs in this world that will never get to enjoy the good chew of a bone🦴 due to a behavior called resource guarding, which can be one of the most challenging behaviors to manage in dogs. Whether your dog is becoming possessive over their food, raw meaty bones, or toys, or reacting defensively to a situation out of fear, these behaviors can lead to stressful and potentially dangerous situations. The good news is that they can be managed with the right training techniques.

If your dog is resource guarding, is leash reactive, or exhibiting aggression toward other animals or humans. Understanding the underlying causes of these behaviors and implementing the proper training techniques can make a significant difference in managing these behaviors.

If you’re navigating these challenges, have a reactive dog, or want to learn how to keep yourself and your dog safe from aggression, we’ve got the perfect episode for you.

This Sunday on the Inside Scoop, we’re joined by Michael Shikashio, CDBC, a leading expert in canine behavior and aggression. He’ll be sharing practical solutions for common issues like:

🦮 How to protect yourself and your dog from aggressive or overaroused off-leash dogs.

🦮 Techniques for safely breaking up a dog fight.

🦮 Defensive handling strategies and emergency scenarios with aggressive dogs.

🦮 How stress and fear fuel aggression—and how to address these root causes.

Tune in this Sunday at 12 PM ET for expert advice, actionable tips, and demonstrations that will help you feel more confident and prepared when dealing with dog aggression.

Comment SCOOPERS and we'll message you the link to join Inside Scoop, a Planet Paws monthly subscription group. All live podcasts are recorded and available to watch later. You’ll also be able to watch over 5 years of content including: past live podcasts, interviews, ebook downloads, and more!

Hello everyone, I need your help. 🐾 🙋🏼‍♀️🐾🙋🏼‍♀️🐾🙋🏼‍♀️🐾🙋🏼‍♀️🐾🙋🏼‍♀️🐾

As a dog trainer 🐕‍🦺and advocate for your pets overall well-being, 🤗 I'm continually asked a lot of questions in many lanes by my pet guardians.🤔 I advise on foods, treats, remedies, toys, gear and so much more. I only recommend what I would be willing to use and give to my own dogs. So I read labels, consult with the other pet professionals, store staff and vendors regarding products and such in order to pass on what I've learned. 🐾 🕵🏼‍♀️👩🏼‍🏫👩🏼‍🎓👩🏼‍🌾👩🏼‍🍳👩🏼‍⚕️👩🏼‍🔬🐾

It dawned on me💡that I'm providing a lot of free advertising and increasing sales on the products I recommend. How is that helping me or you, (aside from knowing I advised you well)? What are we getting from the very companies I'm boosting with mine and your purchases? ZERO.
🙀🙈🙉🙊😿

That prompted me to start contacting some of these companies to see who had a partnership, promo options, kick backs to at least our accounts with them and so on. What did I find? ZERO.🙀🙈🙉🙊😿

So, I've partnered with PawTree, a health, wellness, and nutrition pet product company that does give back for my recommendations. It's a win win because I'm still recommending products I'd give to my dogs and your pets will benefit from the high quality products too! Plus I'll get the kick backs for my diligence that will also provide me with opportunities to pass on promotions & discounts to you as well! We all love a good sale especially on our pet products! 🐾

Now, down to the point of this post! 🙌🏻 🐾 👏🏻🐾🙌🏻

I'm in the process of learning the tools to my new trade. It's hard to do that when I don't have profiles that create recommendations that in turn create reports on the back end for me to analyze and all that jazz. 🐾 👩🏼‍💻🐾👩🏼‍💻🐾👩🏼‍💻🐾👩🏼‍💻🐾

So... would you mind going to my pawtree link in my bio, register, add your pets information and concerns/issues so that the site generates recommendations to fit your pets needs?

*There is no obligation to buy anything.*

However, if you do find that you like the ingredient lists of these products, so want to purchase the products recommended, then I'd advise you to also set up an ez ship schedule that works for you and caters to your pets needs. Then you won't run out and your pet gets continued care. 🐾🐕🐾🐈🐾🐕🐾🐈🐾

PLUS there are some🧸 pawzivitely adorable toys and pawzome bundles in time for your pawliday gift giving! 🎅🏼🤶🏼🧑🏼‍🎄 What a warm n fuzzy feeling 🥰 to have knowing you are giving quality products to your pets as well as any family and friends pets. 🐾 😍🐾🤩🐾😍🐾🤩🐾

I would greatly appreciate your help while I'm learning to navigate these sites and forms so that I can be more proficient in assisting you with your pets health and wellness needs. 🐾

Thank you in advance!😊 I appreciate you! 🙏🏻🐾

Let's talk about your pets diet.

You get the standard American diseases when you eat the Standard American Diet. The same is true for our pets. Food can heal or harm, and diet-related diseases (chronic noninfectious conditions) are at an all-time high for people and pets. We can never be vibrantly healthy eating dead (ultra-processed) food devoid of naturally occurring enzymes, antioxidants, polyphenols, and flavonoids. And while 67% of calories U.S. teens consume come from highly refined foods, most pets consume ultra-processed diets exclusively 💔. Most pets go a lifetime without consistent access to fresh, unprocessed foods except for lawn grass (often sprayed with glyphosate or other herbicides💀). It’s time to wake up to fast food marketing ploys; the quality, freshness, and adulteration of our pet’s food supply play into health and disease powerfully. Why are we letting the ultra-processed Pet Food industry convince pet parents that feeding dry food for a lifetime is the healthiest way to nourish our animals? 🤯
