If walking your dog feels more stressful than fun 🤯whether it’s reactivity, jumping, or pulling on the lead— the solution might be simpler than you think!
🐾 Structured walks set the foundation. A clear routine helps your dog understand what’s expected of them and builds good habits from the start.
🐾 Simple communication avoids confusion. Using straightforward cues ensures your dog knows exactly what you want them to do, making training smoother.
🐾 Low distractions minimise overwhelm. Starting in a quiet, familiar environment helps your dog focus on learning without getting sidetracked by external triggers.
If you’re still struggling with your dog’s behaviour on walks, reach out for a one on one session and we can work together to make your walks enjoyable again👌🏽
Got all the gear? And still no idea how to walk your dog?
When it comes to dog training, the tools we use are important, but they’re only as effective as our communication.
Whether it’s a leash, a clicker, or treats, without clear guidance and boundaries, dogs can easily become confused about what is expected of them.
Really, it’s not about the equipment itself, but how we use it to convey our expectations ✅
Dogs thrive on structure and consistency, so establishing boundaries helps them understand what is expected of them during walks.
Unclear communication can lead to:
🤯 Confusion
😤 Frustration
🫣 And a lack of control over your dog’s behaviour.
The reality is that no piece of equipment will fix your issues unless you put the time and effort into establishing rules and consistently enforcing/ rewarding them.
