It's never too late to learn new stuff. Millie is 12 and learning how to hold a mat command for the very first time. She wasn't particularly impressed, but she didn't get off.

Today's session for Bella included a walk to the local park where we watched the kids play soccer and stayed calm with the traffic and noise while holding a drop. Very impressed with her progress, her Ma is doing a stellar job.

This beautiful girl is Maggie, her mum sought assistance because of an incident that occurred at a kennels which has left her hyper aware and reactive. However, today, she learned to listen, and what a difference that made. Consistency will be the key here, but I have no doubt things will improve.

You don’t have to *actually* train your dog to engage in problematic behavior, you only have to allow it — from there nature will do the rest.

It typically starts out as a small, “no big deal”, testing of the waters. And because the behavior is so small and seemingly benign, many let it go. But as the waters repeatedly permit the tiny, seemingly benign behavior to be repeated over and over, something strange occurs…

The once small, innocuous, “no big deal” behavior has now become anything but. It now occurs far more frequently, and it’s far stronger and firmer in its presentation.

This is the place where many owners reach out for help from professionals. And usually they will relay a story of the issues coming virtually out of nowhere. But that’s never the case. Problematic behavior always starts small (that’s the “out of nowhere part”), and always grows into something more if allowed.

So here’s one of the most important tips I can share with you. What you allow is what you train. And the reason you allow it is almost always because it doesn’t appear to be that serious initially. But then at some point it becomes something you’re no longer able to ignore. So instead of doing what so many do, and falling into the trap that so many fall into, work to see the small moments of unwanted behavior as your “go-signal” for addressing the issue. These are your chances to head problem behaviors off at the pass, and also to ensure your relationship dynamics never end up in the dysfunctional space that so many owners end up in.

And maybe just maybe, you’ll never need a professional to help — because you never allowed the small stuff to become the big stuff. :)

We had a little catch-up and refresher with Mabel today. Wow! I was blown away. She held a drop for about 20 minutes while her Ma and I chatted and ironed out a few creases, even staying put whilst we were out of sight. She's only 18 months old, so she still has lots of learning to do, but is in very capable and consistent hands.
Can't wait to catch up again in the future.

Every day is a chance to consolidate good manners and boundaries.
Here, Missy, Milly, and Finn wait outside patiently while I prepare their dinner in the kitchen.

2nd session for Dom. He's a fairly anxious boy, and progress has been a bit slow, but that's ok... With persistence and consistency, he'll get there. Having said that, he learned to drop pretty quickly in spite of his initial reluctance.
Then the heavens opened, and the light and noise show began, and we all had to run for cover and go home.
Proud of you, Dom.

Such a proud moment for me here.
Where once Zoe would have growled, lunged, and been really difficult to handle in the presence of another dog, showed us today that all the hard work that has been going on between sessions is really paying off.
She may still be a bit too interested in Missy, but she listened to mum, kept a loose lead, and walked on by. No hackles and no growling...onwards and upwards from here.
Well done Team 🥰

We've been working towards working in proximity to other dogs. Starting with learning the language, general obedience, and good manners.
Today, Zoe was able to walk past my van with Missy and Milly inside without any reaction at all. Listening to mum all the way and getting lots of praise at the end.
