Yay, Sunday mornings don't get much better than this when you get to meet a lovely young lad like Milo and his awesome owners who are determined to do what's best for this Groodle.😎

Dingos ARE NOT wild dogs.

Yup, no doubt about it, young Chief is definitely a German Shepherd - the head tilt says it all.😊

Interesting to see him displaying exactly the same assertive behaviour as another long haired GSD I'm working with.
No difference at all, and no, they're not related.🙂

💣How to create problems and expenses you really didn't need nor want;

❎Get two puppies at the same time instead of just the one - because they need company and two is better than one, right?🤦‍♂️

❎Ask social media for help and advise regarding behaviour issues, espescially when you have never owned a dog before.🤦‍♂️

❎Get a dog because you saw this large, cute, fluffy, lovely white dog in a movie and you just had to have one of those.🤦‍♂️

❎Get a high drive working dog breed as your very first dog, because doing research and understanding genetics are just silly - Facebook told you so.🤦‍♂️

❎Your dog is displaying unwanted behaviours such as aggression, but, hey, they'll grow out of it - won't they? Why would I need a trainer?🤦‍♂️

❎Your dog started to display aggressive behaviours XYZ months or years ago - and you now urgently need a trainer.🤦‍♂️

I could go on and on and one. Haven't even touched on socialising dogs, desexing them too early and much more.🤓

Yes, why indeed are Dingoes not protected in this country?

Dingoes are important culturally and environmentally. Why aren't they protected like other native animals?⁠ READ MORE: https://bit.ly/3SWeZfD

Sunday afternoon pack walk along the river.😊
And yes, that is Gypsy way down in the distance in the top picture, that means a recall is imminent.😎
Yet again the crew made me proud and a good time was had by all.☺️

The education of young Winston continues - it's all about generalising behaviours - and it became obvious that he needs more exposure to this particular environment.🤔
Big thank you to the guys putting up with having this boofhead in class.😊

Not often I get to spend some time with two characters like these lovely girls in one place; a Rottweiler and a Boerboel no less, 😎

Maine Mounted Search and Rescue riders are training their horses to follow human scents in the woods to find missing people. Two teams will be certified in June.

Did a short session with Winston in a different location, it's all about generalising behaviours and sure enough, this session showed me a couple of things needing attention in this particular location. Very happy with him overall though.😊

Gypsy applied her magic once again.😎

⚠️Why is play so important when working with a "reactive", fearful or insecure dog❓

✅Because it activates the reward centres in the brain - and makes the dog feel safe - but you need to understand the "how" and the "when".‼️

💣Remember - there is so much more to "reactivity" than what you think - it helps to have at least some understanding of the neurobiology involved, why the neurotransmitter acetylcholine plays such and important role, the physiologically changes happening inside the dog and why putting your dog in a sit and throwing food at the dog watching the trigger might not be the best solution.😉

💣If you believe we suppress the dog using obedience, then you really don't understand what's involved.💣

⚠️Shutting down a dog is easy, any hack can do that, it looks like the problems have disappeared and that the dog is "fixed", but nothing could be farther from the truth.‼️

This came into effect as of July 1st 2024.

Do you have your leash? 🐶

On-the-spot fines for dog owners who fail to control their dogs in public places have increased to $806.

This includes having a dog off-leash in an on-leash area. Or, if the dog is in an off-leash area, the owner must be able to control the dog using voice command.

For fatal attacks, owners face fines up to $108,000 and possible jail time.

Gypsy once again led the crew astray.😊

Did two recalls past the dogs, one with Gypsy coming from the front and one with Gypsy coming from behind.😳
It does make a difference.😎

Doesn't look like much is happening here, but this was a major milestone for one seriously reactive dog being their very first group class. There are actually two rather reactive dogs in this picture.😱
Oh yeah, and Winston made an appearance again too.😊

Friends, it’s time to address a pressing issue within our dog training community.

ZG a social media influencer clown who generates noise for attention and stands against the core values we uphold as dog trainers, while lacking even the bare minimum dog training knowledge!
He tries hard to be relevant in our industry, but the reality is ZG has ZERO DOG TRAINING SKILLS or understanding of dog behavior.

He thrives on creating conflicts and spreading misleading information across social media, amassing views and followers. Making money from advertising dog products and is able to do so *only because We interact with him. His ignorance and extreme lack of knowledge are infuriating, and it's time we all take a stand.
My call to action is simple but Powerful: unsubscribe from all his media channels, unfriend and block him on every platform, and never tag or respond to his posts. By doing this, we will stop supporting his manipulative tactics and of course the algorithms
