Is your dog social ? If they aren't, well, it's not that big of a deal! Just like people, dogs are individuals with very different personalities. Let's get to know our dogs and respect their personalities! 💡
Est-ce que votre chien est sociable? S'il ne l'est pas, ce n'est pas la fin du monde! Juste comme les personnes, chaque chien est un individu à part entière. Apprenons à mieux connaître nos chiens et respectons leurs personnalités! 💡

From being scared and left abandoned at the front door of the shelter to now beginning anew with a fresh start in this puppy's life. There's gonna be lots of work to do with this little guy, on socializing and getting him desensitized to things, but he's already making good progress and coming out of his shell!

Ghost is doing amazing. Special thanks to Refuge Magoo for taking him in 🤍

💥REACTIVITY HYBRID GROUP CLASS GONE WRONG 💥

Just kidding! It went waaaaaaay better than expected!

Now let's get some more context:
🐶 Whippet: Haricot, 1 year, Positive reactivity ( wants to see every dog and play with everyone, no focus on her owners and enters deep hyper fixations)

🐶 Border Collie x Aussie: Skyler, 1 year and a half, Negative reactivity ( wound react badly when he would cross other dogs, would redirect on the leash or even his owner )

🐶 Border Collie: Pippa, Almost 1, Negative reactivity because of fear based reactions

All 3 of them have been following the hybrid obedience or behavioral modification program. In this course, we work on triggers and focus, with positive reinforcement and strengthening of our bond with our dogs.

Most reactive dogs we see are not actually trying to " attack another dog ". They are mainly just frustrated and are not desensitized properly to their triggers. What we try to achieve is helping them master their feelings and self control while redirecting their focus on their owners and becoming neutral to those triggers.

In this particular case, all 3 dogs are close to being completely in control of their emotions and reaching for neutrality. This was the first time they met each other and were great with one another, even completely ignoring themselves.

Not every dog can achieve self control to this point, depending on trauma, triggers and even genetics but we sure do our best to help them become neutral, even if it's just for crossing a dog on the other side of the street.

Patience is key with reactivity! 🩵

Much love to Haricot, Skyler and Pippa!

From the E list to top graduate! 🏆

Mushu is a South Carolina rescue who came here with the help of Refuge Magoo . He was saved one day or two before being put down. Unfortunately for him and many others, in the US, dogs that won't get adopted or claimed get sent to the Euthanasia List because of the overpopulation issues...

I've known Mushu from the very first day he arrived at the shelter, bonded with him there, presented him to his new family that decided to adopt him right away and had the honor of being his trainer!
From a big boy that didn't know a single thing, he graduated from his Basic obedience class with a stunning 96%! I'm so proud of my boy! 🥹

Happy life Mushu and thanks to your amazing family that will do anything to make you thrive! 🩷
...

De la liste" E ", au meilleur diplômé ! 🏆

Mushu est un Rescue de Caroline du Sud venu ici avec l'aide du Refuge Magoo. Il a été sauvé un jour ou deux avant d'être euthanasié. Malheureusement pour lui et bien d'autres, aux États-Unis, les chiens qui ne sont pas adoptés ou réclamés sont inscrits sur la liste d'euthanasie en raison des problèmes de surpopulation...

J'ai connu Mushu dès le premier jour où il est arrivé au refuge, on a créé un super lien ensemble, je l'ai présenté à sa nouvelle famille qui a tout de suite décidé de l'adopter et j'ai eu l'honneur d'être son entraîneur !
Ce grand garçon qui ne savait rien du tout a obtenu son diplôme d'obéissance de base avec un score époustouflant de 96 % ! Je suis tellement fière de mon garçon ! 🥹

Bonne vie Mushu et merci à ton incroyable famille qui fait tout pour te voir briller! 🩷

Some wise encouragement from Marley! 💪🏻

I've never seen a pup that loves belly rubs more than her! That being said, her and her big brother Chips did great at their first Basic Obedience Class outside! 🏆

Have a nice weekend 🐾

I'm so happy for this boy! Refuge Magoo does so much for those dogs!

He was one of my favorites and one of the dogs that I had the pleasure to work with! Screech was so good that he was my "go to" demo dog to test other dogs'reactivity. The calmest, smartest, most patient and food motivated guy.

Happy tails Screechy! 🥹🧡
