The TSA at Birmingham Airport has been nothing but kind and lovely in assisting our practice sessions with various service dogs. They open special lines for us so we can take our clients through the experience of passing through security.

Thanks, in particular to Christopher Barnette with the for accommodating us. ✈️

We elevate our clients from "train the dog" 🤔 to "I now understand my dog's core motivations and how to interpret their behavior and communicate in a new way that meets their emotional needs."🤯

At 3D Dog, we understand that a dog’s behavior is not a series of disconnected events but rather a cohesive story that evolves over time, much like a narrative with a beginning, middle, and end. This narrative framework allows us to interpret behaviors as part of a dog’s ongoing quest for connec...

Look beneath what your dog does and seek to understand "why" they did it. There, upon careful inspection, you will find a rational, childlike mind on a search for connection and understanding of the world around them; a thinking creature who wants to know at all times if they are secure within a stable family.

Providing that security transcends simply giving them toys and treats for momentary pleasure, and delves deeply into our ability as caregivers to respond to their core needs. For this, a competent parent must portray themselves as capable of handling any crisis in a calm, consistent, and decisive manner. These leadership values, among others, prove to the dog that you can carry them through unstable times. And it is upon that foundation that Trust is built.

**SHARE THIS POST** Protecting our canine companions is a top priority, and during the hot summer months, one often-overlooked area is their paws. When temperatures rise, asphalt and other paved surfaces can become incredibly hot, reaching temperatures high enough to cause serious burns to a dog's paw pads.

Think of it this way: if you wouldn't walk barefoot on the asphalt, your dog shouldn't either. Paw pads, while resilient, are not immune to extreme heat. Burns can lead to painful blisters, infections, and a long road to recovery.
