⛓️ Martingale collars ⛓️💥 are a great tool for dogs who tend to slip out of regular collars, but proper fit is key!
✅ These collars should sit comfortably high on your dog’s neck, snug enough to prevent slipping, but loose enough to avoid choking.
✅ When your dog pulls, the collar should tighten just enough to give you control without causing discomfort. A well-fitted martingale collar keeps your pup safe, secure, and comfortable on every walk. 🐕✨

👤 What do you say to people who ask why he’s muzzled? 🎤
1️⃣ Advocate for your dog! No one is entitled to meet, greet or pet without your express permission.
2️⃣ You don’t have to provide any reason to any person as to why your dog is muzzled it is completely up to you what you share!
3️⃣ “We’re Training”, “he gets scared easily”, “he’s nervous of other dogs”
4️⃣ I’d rather be proactive than reactive!
5️⃣ That’s our business, thank you.
Remember, every dog is different! 🐶💖 #DogSafety #MuzzleAwareness #ResponsiblePetOwnership #reactivedog #gooddog
‼️You should put him down! ‼️
And other useless things ignorant folks have said when a dog is in a muzzle:
🤬 Well if he’s not friendly he shouldn’t be out!
🤙🏾 Then how come you’re out of the house?
🤬 All (insert breed) are dangerous!
🤙🏾 Any dog can bite, especially when the stranger is behaving aggressively
🤬 All dogs love me, I’m sure it’s fine *reaching with unwanted hands towards dogs face*
🤙🏾 *slaps strangers hand away*
No is a full sentence.
Remember, muzzles are tools to keep our furry friends safe and comfortable in various situations! 🐶💙 Be an advocate for your dog!

🔆 What if my dog already hates his muzzle? 🔆 Never fear! 🐶💛
These steps can be practiced even if your dog already has a negative association with their current muzzle✨
1️⃣ Go at your dogs pace- if they start to avoid you’ve gone too quickly, go back to the previous step
2️⃣ Keep your tone pawsitive and your reinforcements high!
3️⃣ Your dog has no idea what a muzzle is, don’t say sorry or become apologetic in your tone. Wearing a muzzle is a GOOD thing!!

💡 Did you know 💡 that talking less to your dog can actually improve their focus and training? 🐶
🐾 By using clear, consistent cues and minimizing unnecessary chatter, you help your pup understand and respond better. Try it out and see the difference! ✨
❌ This does not mean letting your dog loose at the off-leash park and ignoring them.
This is for intentional focus training purposes 🐶 Want to build a better recall?

🏳️🌈 Understanding Canine Consent in Playtime 🤝
Did you know dogs can give and withdraw consent during play just like humans? 🐶✨ Watching their body language is key to ensuring a safe and fun experience for all.
🔍 Look for:
- Loose, wiggly bodies
- Play bows
- Reciprocal actions
🚫 Watch out for:
- Tense bodies
- Tail tucked between legs
- Disengaging from the other dog
- High arousal play without taking breaks
Understanding body language is your first line of defense when keeping dog to dog interactions consensual.

it doesn’t matter how well you know the dog, how long you’ve had the dog, or whether or not the bite could do “real damage” based on the size of the dog.
Consent is what folx?
