Meet Scout 🧡

Scout has been a part of the Promontory Pups’ pack since August 2024.

Scout is a Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever, often simply called a “Toller.” Known for their agility, intelligence, and boundless energy, these medium-sized dogs were originally bred to lure and retrieve waterfowl for hunters.

Fun Fact: Tollers are the smallest retrievers, but they have a unique talent—their playful antics and tail wagging near the water mimic the behaviour of foxes, attracting ducks and geese closer for hunters.

Here’s Moose 🫎

Corgis, originally bred in Wales, are known for their herding abilities. Specifically, the Pembroke Welsh Corgi was used to herd cattle, sheep, and horses. Their low stature allowed them to nip at the heels of livestock while avoiding kicks. Despite their small size, they are agile, hardworking, and intelligent, making them excellent herding dogs. Corgis are also known for their loyalty, playful nature, and characteristic "fox-like" appearance, including their short legs and expressive eyes.

Do you have a reactive dog?

Reactivity isn’t the same as aggression. It’s often a response to fear, excitement, or overstimulation. This behaviour can show up as barking, lunging, or growling when a dog encounters a trigger like another dog, person, or loud noise.

Reactiveness is a normal, manageable behaviour with the right approach. Positive reinforcement (R+) training techniques, which focus on rewarding desired behaviours rather than punishing unwanted ones, are highly effective. Fear-Free certified trainers work to reduce stress, providing your dog with confidence and coping skills.

Here are a few strategies that can help:

1. Desensitization & Counterconditioning: Gradually exposing your dog to triggers at a distance while rewarding calm behaviour can help them become less reactive over time.

2. Parallel Walks: Walking your reactive dog near but not directly engaging with other dogs or stimuli helps build tolerance and comfort.

3. Manage the Environment: Avoid overwhelming situations and create safe spaces for your dog to retreat and relax.

For more tips and training, reach out to professionals experienced in reactive dog training. You don’t have to navigate this alone!
