Separation anxiety is a common issue that many dogs face. They may become anxious and stressed when left alone, which can lead to destructive behaviour and excessive barking. But there are ways to help your dog feel more comfortable when you're not home. Start by gradually increasing the amount of time your dog is left alone, and make sure they have plenty of toys and treats to keep them occupied. Consider crate training your dog, as many dogs feel more secure in a crate. And don't forget to provide plenty of exercise and mental stimulation to help your dog stay calm and relaxed.

Basic obedience commands are the foundation of a well-trained dog. They include sit, stay, come, and down, and can help keep your dog safe and well-behaved. To teach these commands, use positive reinforcement methods like treats and praise. Start with one command at a time, and repeat it consistently until your dog responds. Gradually add in new commands, and practice in different environments to help your dog generalize the behaviour.

Socialization is one of the most important things you can do for your dog. It helps them to become comfortable with different people, animals, and environments, which can prevent fear and aggression. But how do you properly socialize your dog? Start by introducing your dog to new things gradually, and reward them with treats and praise for positive behaviour. Make sure to expose your dog to a variety of people, animals, and environments, so they become comfortable with different situations. Remember to always supervise your dog during socialization, and never force them to interact with something they're scared of.

Tips for Potty Training Your New Puppy or Dog
House training is an essential part of owning a dog. It involves teaching your dog where and when to go potty, and can be a challenging process. To start house training, establish a regular feeding and potty schedule, and supervise your dog at all times. Take your dog outside frequently, and reward them for going potty in the right spot. Consistency is key when it comes to house training, so be patient and stick to a routine.

Hey there, fur-parents! Are you looking to get your furry friend up and moving? Well, did you know that your own activity level can impact your pup's energy levels too? It's true! If you're always on the go and love getting outside for some fresh air, your dog will likely be right by your side, wagging their tail and ready for some adventure. But, if you tend to be more of a couch potato, your pup may be content to snuggle up with you and binge-watch your favorite shows. So, if you want to get your dog more active and engaged, try incorporating some fun outdoor activities into your routine. Go for a hike, play fetch at the park, or even take a swim together!

Your furry friend will thank you for the extra exercise, and you'll both have a blast bonding over some fun in the sun.

The Importance of Socializing Your Dog at an Early Age

Socialization is a crucial part of your dog's development, especially at an early age. Socialization means exposing your dog to different people, places, and animals to help them learn how to behave appropriately in social situations. Socialization can help prevent behaviour problems, promote good behaviour, and build trust and rapport between you and your dog. So, make sure you start socializing your dog at an early age!

Barking is a natural behaviour for dogs and serves as a means of communication. However, excessive barking can be a nuisance and lead to conflicts with neighbours or other animals. To stop your dog from barking, first, identify the trigger, whether it's fear, boredom, or attention-seeking. Use positive reinforcement techniques such as treats, toys, or praise to reward good behaviour and redirect their attention. Consistency is key, and it's essential to avoid punishing your dog as it can worsen the behaviour.

At CalmK9, we provide barking prevention and training services to help your dog become a good neighbour.

Dogs are naturally social creatures and love to interact with other dogs and humans. However, excessive socialization can distract them from their owner and lead to undesirable behaviours such as pulling, jumping, or barking. To keep your dog focused on you, try using treats, toys, or commands to redirect their attention. Practice obedience training and gradually increase the level of distraction. Remember to reward good behaviour and be patient. At CalmK9, we provide behaviour modification and training services to help you and your dog enjoy quality time together.
