Did you know that mental exercise can be just as tiring as physical activity for dogs? 🐶 Enrichment activities can prevent boredom, build confidence, and teach a variety of skills. For safe and suitable opportunities to exercise your dogs body and mind, from dig-boxes to newspaper parcels and hide-and-seek toys, tap here 👉 https://bit.ly/3QFVoP2

PS. Make sure you supervise your dog, just in case they need help, and when you’re giving your dog food-based treats, reduce their usual food portions so they’re not overfed 💛

ABC-type training protocols and fixed recipe interventions are sometimes essential in the early stages of behaviour modification. But, as cases progress, rigid protocols may limit the ability for dogs to reach their full potential.

Join us and Roz Pooley to delve into this further on 6th December at 8pm!

Is it play or something else? All too often, dog owners misread the language of dogs interacting with one another. Whether it's incorrectly defining innocent play as dangerous fighting or taking too lightly what is actually aggressive behavior, it is important to learn what dogs are saying to each other through their play.

Turning Babies Into Monsters

It seems so harmless. You get a dog, you’re wildly in love with them, and you desperately want them to be happy.

You also deeply enjoy the feeling of giving them whatever it is that makes them happy. This could be affection, freedom, toys, cuddles, treats...

This new dog has your heart, and all you want to do is give. It makes total sense. We’re heavily programmed to nurture, and like I said, it feels so good.

But babying your dog, meaning there’s only nurturing and love, and zero discipline or accountability, is the most common way dogs are ruined.

Whether it’s craziness towards guests, explosions on walks, resource guarding, obsessive barking, or actual aggression, spoiling is the perfect way to turn your baby into a monster.

We see dog after dog who come through our doors who are a wreck. They’ve bitten people or dogs, they’ve taken over the house, they’ve made the walks a war zone. And almost always, when we dig a bit, we get the confession: Yeah, I really treat him like my baby.

Ahhh, there we go.

And it’s easy to see. The dog doesn’t respect the owner, doesn’t listen, and usually is hyped-up and made crazy just by their presence. But you wouldn’t expect anything else, would you?

If you spoil, allow, and baby, you’ve basically created an entitled brat, who has no sense of right and wrong, and no reason to not do whatever feels like the best choice in that moment.

To be balanced, a dog needs to not only know what you want, they also need to know you’re worthy of respect.

You’re job is to clearly articulate the rules, and enforce them. Itf you choose to only do what feels good for you, you can’t blame your dog when they fall apart.

Babying is about you. Not your dog. It’s a selfish act. Sorry to be blunt, but them’s the facts. And when you see dogs losing their quality of life, their homes, and sometimes their lives, it’s time to be blunt.

Our ABTC Feline Working Group has produced a poster to help raise awareness that cat owners can find support where their cat may be experiencing some behavioural problems. We would encourage veterinary practices, as well as community hubs to pop up a copy of the poster in their customer-facing areas, and we would be delighted if you could share this post too.

If ABTC practitioners/or veterinary staff would like some hard copies of this digital poster, please do get in touch with us at [email protected], and include your name, the postal address of where you would like the poster[s] sent to and the minimum number of posters required. Thank you :)

With ear bursting yaps and grumbling snores, the dogs run this place with iron fist paws. Their needs are met, and they’re a bunch of dog glee.

It’s lucky for them; we know dogs should speak free.

Dogs weren’t companions or owned toys; they chose to join humans with our insistent noise. They were free canids once, who became our friends. Then we fiddled and di**led them into different ends.

We made pugs who can’t breathe, bulldogs who are sore. We created Cavaliers so poorly we can di**le them no more.

We have Collies obsessed with herding up cars, where life on the sofa could be life on Mars. We have fiddled and di**led hundreds of breeds, and we can’t possibly blame them. We created their needs.

Biology matters; genes make their drives, our dogs learn and inherit, which we can see when we’re wise. Teach your Collie gentle herding, your Dachshund to dig, and learn to love your terrier’s bark.

Don’t let TV trainers say your dog is naughty. Why allow a poor trainer to steal your dog’s glee? Instead, find the good ones, the learned and wise.

Invest in professionals who see through your dog’s eyes. Learn why they exist and how their genes talk, then meet some of those needs on your next walk.

You will find something so special, more than a dog strictly trained; you will fill your dog’s heart by using their brain. Dogs are so different when we meet their needs. To find what your dog likes, look into their breed.

Final and critical, do remember their age. Dogs’ lives are so short, and in ours, just a stage. One day they’ll be old. One day they’ll be gone. On that one day, without a doubt, you will want to hang on.

So let them be free, let them speak out, be gracious with them and don’t always shush when they shout.
