Managing the situation:

Struggle: the neighbours have lots of guests arriving for a BBQ, and their own chihuahuas are barking at every visitor who arrives.

Solution: to distract and deter my dogs from the other barking dogs - a nice crunchy Turkey neck will keep her entertained quietly and calmly.

More managing the the situation :

Struggle: The dogs like to watch the street from our deck - and bark at passers-by

Solution: Gate-off access to the front deck so they can’t see the street when we aren’t home to manage the dogs.

Managing the situation is key!

Struggle: the neighbours got a new cat that loves to sit in the window watching my dogs bark at her…

Solution: shade cloth might not be pretty, but it’s stopped the dogs rehearsing barking for fun.

Gated communities: this means that our fur babies learn that our presence doesn’t mean that they have to be in our space all the time.
Helping them learn that life can be happy and normal when we aren’t home too - decreasing separation worries for all involved!

This is Sunny’s breakfast kibble … being used as training treats in fun games. Building our relationship - she values being close to me over all the other distractions happening out there. 🥰

When your desire is for your dogs to be calm when you are NOT home … a big piece of the puzzle is for them to be calm and happy when you ARE home, even if they cannot be near you, or see you …

Remember : Presence Does Not Mean Access
