Did you know ⁉️
Many unwanted behaviours we see in our pets, stem from lack of mental stimulation⁉️
Especially in working breeds 🐾
This is what we love to call ✨ ENRICHMENT✨
Using games, toys, training, and more to make your pets brain work, will tire them out more then any walk could (unless it’s a “sniffari” of course 😉)
Need some ideas?
Feel free to reach out to us, we’re happy to help 🤍🐾

Does this sound familiar⁉️
Your sitting outside, enjoying the beautiful weather, reading a book.
Your dog is lounging in the sun, when suddenly they get up and start barking like crazy at something they seen or think they saw🤦🏼♀️
But then they just don’t settle?
You’re not alone, it’s actually quite common. Keep in mind, the longer this behavior is happening, the more frequent it becomes😞
Let us create a plan together🫶🏼

➡️Are you flat out avoiding walking your dog because they don’t understand how to behave on a leash?
➡️Are you embarrassed at their behavior towards guests?
I have just a couple of spots left available for consultations to talk with me about your situation‼️
Let's chat about what might be happening and how it's impacting your family's lifestyle to see how we can get you back to normal🫶🏼
Let’s talk about the importance of PANTING‼️
Why do dogs pant?
➡️ It’s quite simple. Panting is how dogs regulate their body temperature 🤒
Why is it important for dogs to pant?
➡️ When dogs get over heated or hot, they don’t sweat quite like us humans. So panting allows them to cool down.
➡️ If your pet becomes hot and can’t pant, it can be extremely dangerous and even deadly.
‼️ This is a reminder to ensure anything you put on your dog, does not restrict their panting‼️
These items include, but are not limited to:
Halti Head Harnesses
Muzzles
And more.
The devices listed above, if not properly fit, can limit how much a dog opens their mouth, therefore limiting the dog from panting ~ which leads to overheating👏
Please keep and eye on your dog, and know the signs of heat stroke and heat exhaustion🫶🏼
Not sure what to do if your dog falls ill from either of the above? Luckily for you, we offer Canine Emergency CPR & First aid courses🐾

I have a secret to share with you today...🤫
You might not realize it.. but...
‼️Dog trainers' dogs are not perfect‼️
In fact,
What I do know though, is that I understand my dogs.
👉🏻I know what behavior is worth fixing. I know what they need to know to be safe dogs.
👉🏻I know that they are a pleasure to be around because they have "life skills,"
👉🏻They have basic foundations that enable to me to enjoy their presence in my home.
👉🏻They listen when it matters.
👉🏻And best of all - we PLAY. I'm not worried about being the boss. They voluntarily cooperate.
👉🏻And this enables us to play and be silly together.
👉🏻The way in which we interacted each day when I first got them set the foundation for their habits - the tendencies and habits I'm okay living with.
👉🏻There was never a formal training session actually - all training was incorporated into how we went about our day.
It was easy. It becomes second nature for them and me🙌
One of the best realizations clients experience when working with me is how easy training can be.
I can help you incorporate it into your daily routines so that you barely notice or rarely have to set much time aside to implement it.

😖 Is your dog making your walks stressful?
😫 Are you avoiding walks with your dog even though you wish you could go out?
😅 Is your dog completely embarrassing you when others walk by with theirs?
Here are 3 things you can do this week to make your walks more enjoyable:
1️⃣ Use a short, non-extendable leash. Often, while flexi leashes give your dog more freedom to explore, they can complicate walks and walking manners.
2️⃣ Turn around! Don't hesitate to change directions or turn around if you see another dog coming your way.
3️⃣ Don't take it personally. Your dog is not barking his head off to annoy or embarrass you. There are many reasons dogs become reactive on leash...
🐶 Maybe they've been attacked and now they're on the offensive.
🐶 Maybe they are frustrated they can't go say hi at-will.
🐶 Maybe they are scared and feel cornered on leash.
🐶 Maybe they've never been taught what to do instead of bark.
💙 Whatever the reason, don't take it personally and please understand you aren't the only one! Soooo many dog owners struggle with this issue. And I help my clients through it often.
Let me know in the comments - Why are you avoiding walks with your dog these days? 👇👇👇
If you could ask a Dog Trainer 1 question, what would that question be⁉️
We want to hear from you🤩
