What is your go-to training treat?
Read our recent blog post by our trainer Meg Sorley, to learn about some creative dog training treats to try out!
Today, let's talk about some of our favorite high-value treats we love using for both training and enrichment toys. Remember, always introduce new treats in moderation and be aware of any food sensitivities or allergies your pup might have. Let's dive into the delicious world of dog treats! 🐾 Siz...
People often hear that their dogs behavior is indicative of their dog trying to 'dominate' them.
They're told if their dog leans on them, goes out the door first, sleeps on their bed etc, it could give their dog the wrong impression about who's in charge.
We disagree. These little actions often are innocent, reflexive, or just your dog enjoying proximity and physical touch.
It's the bigger picture of making sure you're meeting your dogs needs and that you have a healthy relationship.
Does your dog do anything that you've been told is concerning but you're not sure if it actually is?
Emotions and feelings don't always define a personality.
When people ask if your dog is friendly, it's very easy to feel conflicted in how you want to answer.
Dogs often have mixed emotions. They can be nervous but also want to play. They can be excited and also feel anxious and overwhelmed. They can feel overstimulated by an environment, feel defensive, concerned for their safety and also terrified all at the same time.
When you realize that they can be feeling very conflicting emotions all at once, you are going to be a lot more empathetic and compassionate about their behaviour.
Your dog is doing their best and often is acting out due to these very conflicted feelings.
Just because they're acting one way, it doesn't mean that is who they are.
So yes, my dog is friendly, but that doesn't mean he's not having a big emotion, which could determine that it's not the right time to say hello.
Does this make sense?
Since warmer weather is already making an appearance, it's incredibly important to know the signs of heat stroke/heat exhaustion in dogs, how to help them stay cool, and when to seek medical attention.
