Your dog does not have to live up to some ideal that you hold of what a dog should or should not be.
Dogs are living beings with feelings, emotions and experiences that guide their behaviour. This may not always live up to YOUR expectations…but… that is life.

While such behaviour may be frustrating, experts say you shouldn't yank your curious pet away

So
So true

Imagine going to an art gallery and not being allowed to look. Or being taken to a restaurant but not being allowed to eat. Or being given a book but not being allowed to read it.

Or being a dog and not being allowed to sniff….

Sniffing isn’t optional for dogs. It’s not something we should see as an ‘optional extra’ or a ‘nice to have’. It’s central to their experience, their well-being and fundamental to the way they interpret the world around them.

Move slowly, use a longer lead & let them sniff

Let me introduce to you 2-year old Molly. This sweet little girl came with her dog guardian Margaret to seek some guidance from me.

When she came to me, she was wearing a head collar (“Gentle Leader”) with a short leash. She was extremely stressed and very reactive to other dogs. She also did not sleep very well.

Fast forward 5 sessions with me and…..
LOOK AT HER NOW!

(1) She’s not playing ball games anymore 🎾❌
(2) She’s walking on a well-fitting harness 🦮🐕‍🦺
(3) She’s meeting other dogs 🐕❤️🐩
(4) She’s sniffing more outside 👃🏼
(5) She’s sleeping more 😴
(6) SHE’S ENJOYING BEING A DOG!!!

After 5 sessions with me, both Molly and her dog guardian are doing amazingly well. I am so proud of you Margaret and Molly 🥇👩🏻❤️🥇
Thank you for trusting in me 🙏🏼

Have you ever thought what ball chasing actually does to your dog?
Maybe it’s time to stop it and think of other activities with tour dog 😉

YOU need to do what YOU love doing with your dog. Not what someone else tells you that you should be doing.

Remember that you started building relationship with your dog to be happy and to enjoy life together. Don’t do a thousand things YOU don’t care about.

I want my dogs to be curious, to have choices and be happy. I don’t need them to sit on command and control them or perform lots of tricks…

What about YOU and YOUR dog?

Another fantastic webinar with Turid Rugaas tonight: How to help fearful dogs… Thank you ❤️

30/11/2022

One of our evening walks. We did not go very far from our house 🙂. We spent 50 minutes walking and sniffing and exploring empty parking lot near the village college, very close where we live with lots of interesting smells 😊. Dogs should have the choice to use their senses and freedom to explore the environment. It helps to lower stress levels and promotes better mental balance in dogs.

Do you know if your dog enjoyed the walk?
Here is a very good short article written by Smiling Leash

Stanley, 4 years old GSD is a very gentle soul, though a little bit fearful and unsure of other dogs. He was labelled as reactive, aggressive and not a dog that can be easily handled. All he needs is to hold a good distance from other dogs, to walk on a long leash and the ability to make his own choices. No commands, no treats and no heal walks on a tight leash. Midway through our second walk, he decided to stop by the side of the road near a busy intersection. He paused, then sat, then I sat next to him, then he lay down…and proceeded to simply watch the world go by. Pure mindfulness, no stress, his choice, slowly building his confidence. I’m proud of you, you amazing boy.

“Puppies, like babies, need care and guidance. Everything must be done gradually, step by step. If we expect too much from them, problems later on can be wide-ranging: from joint problems to stress-related behaviours. While they are puppies, we must allow them to be puppies—there will be a time for them to be sensible adult dogs, but puppyhood is not that time!” ~ Turid Rugaas and Stephanie Rousseau

Become fluent in "dog," let them show you what they need, and listen to them.

How cute is 6-month old puppy Silvia?
I am teaching her some good manners with this simple gesture - a hand signal.
A hand signal is an amazing tool - not a command, just very polite, kind and not at all intimidating to a dog.

Dogs usually live very controlled lives and have very little possibilities to make their own choices that are so important for them.

Dogs are usually controlled by lots of commands on their walks without exploring the enviroment, and using their senses.

Would you like to make a small change in your dog’s life that will make a big difference for them?

I will not teach your dog to perform lots of tricks. I will not teach them how to sit…. and I will tell you why.

I will show how important it is to let your dogs learn how to cope with our world by themselves.

I will show you the positive effect it has when you let your dogs make free choices and explore the environment with their senses.

I work in the Cambridge area and surrounding villages. Please get in touch with me on [email protected] for a free 30-minute consultation.

Give your dog a bone! Dogs love them.
Chewing has a great calming effect, keeps gums and teeth healthy, encourages natural behaviour…

You can read about the safety and benefits of feeding raw bones to dogs in this article by Dr. Conor Brady here:
