When it comes to dog training, remember these essential qualities:
🐾 PATIENCE
🐾 PERSEVERANCE
🐾 PERSISTENCE

🐶 PATIENCE:

👉 Start early:
Begin training as soon as you bring your puppy home. Focus on basic commands, lead etiquette, and positive reinforcement techniques.

👉 Use positive reinforcement:
Praise, treats, and rewards encourage desired behaviours. Reinforce the connection between action and reward.

👉 Keep sessions short and fun:
Dogs have short attention spans, so aim for multiple brief sessions throughout the day. Incorporate games and positive interactions.

🐶 PERSEVERANCE:

👉 Consistent practice:
Training takes time. Celebrate progress and be patient as your dog learns new skills.

👉 Avoid punishment:
Harsh methods can damage trust and hinder progress. Instead, focus on positive reinforcement.

🐶 PERSISTENCE

👉 Remember, building a strong bond with your furry pals is a journey. Stay focused, stay positive, keep practicing and enjoy the process! 🌟

Hello to our new followers, if you are visiting our page for the first time, here is a brief introduction to Happy Dogs...

Welcome to Happy Dogs 🐶

Since 2004, Happy Dogs has been at the forefront of canine care and training in Exmouth, Devon and surrounding areas. Our team is dedicated to enhancing the bond between you and your furry friend through effective communication and training.

🐾Mastering Commands with Clarity
At Happy Dogs, we believe in the power of clear and consistent commands. From the essential "Stay" to the life-saving "Come," each instruction paves the way for a well-behaved companion.

🐾 Visual Cues: The Unspoken Words
Our training extends beyond words. We teach you how to use visual signals, an invaluable tool in reinforcing commands and ensuring your dog's attention, even from a distance.

🐾 Philosophy of Training
"Training is not just about teaching; it's about learning to see the world through your dog's eyes," says Happy Dogs Training Instructor-Martin Pashley. This philosophy is woven into every lesson, ensuring a compassionate and empathetic approach to training.

🐾 Comprehensive Canine Services
Whether it's a leisurely walk, scent-guided training, or mastering agility, our services cater to all your dog's needs. We're proud to offer NHS staff discounts as a token of our appreciation for their service.

Water Intoxication 💧

Swimming or playing in water for a long time increases the risk of their dog becoming ill from water intoxication. Even water-based activities or games – such as throwing a ball or toy in a river can cause them to swallow too much water and fall ill.

How can I help prevent water intoxication in dogs?

💧 Limit the time a dog spends in water to prevent them from swallowing too much.

💧 Give them time to rest with regular breaks to allow the body’s natural fluid balancing system time to manage any excess intake.

💧 Use floating toys to help prevent your dog from diving under the water. Avoid tennis balls and other rounded toys; instead, opt for flat toys, which allow your dog to close their mouth around it tighter, hopefully avoiding excessive water intake.

💧 Consider training your dog to wear a flotation vest to keep them above water.

💧 Never leave your dog unsupervised when in water.

💧 Don’t restrict your dog from drinking water from their bowl. If your dog is drinking excessively, contact your vet for advice.

When training your dog always keep in mind the following 5 KEY ASPECTS IN DOG TRAINING:

🐶 1. Positive Reinforcement:
Reward-based training is essential. Use treats, praise, and toys to reinforce desired behaviours. Remember, positive reinforcement encourages your dog to repeat good behaviour.
🐶 2. Consistency:
Consistency is key. Use the same cues and commands consistently. Dogs thrive on routine and predictability.
🐶 3. Socialization:
Expose your dog to various environments, people, and other dogs. Proper socialization helps prevent fear and aggression.
🐶 4. Clear Communication:
Be clear in your cues and body language. Dogs pick up on subtle signals, so be mindful of how you communicate.
🐶 5. Patience and Persistence:
Training takes time. Celebrate small victories and be patient with setbacks. Consistent practice yields results.

👉REMEMBER, every dog is unique, so adapt your training approach to suit your furry companion’s personality and needs. 🐾

🐾Our next Beginner Training Course starts Wednesday 17th July.
