I am part of Meesh’s rescue dogs pro’s programme. Her description of our ‘natural world dogs’ is spot on ❤️

12 DAYS OF DISCOUNTS – DAY 4
Following on from my share yesterday, I've put together a little graphic that I feel sums up the general characteristics of the amazing Romanian and Overseas rescue dogs we have chosen to share our lives with.

Of course, every dog is a unique individual, so it's always important to 'see the dog' in front of you and appreciate their own unique character traits and behavioural tendencies, but I think you'll see some familiar things in this graphic that may well have you nodding your head in agreement!

Knowing WHO your dog is and how their L.E.G.S (Learning, Environment, Genetics & Self) drive their behaviours, impact on their physical and emotional well being and their own personal perspective of the world around them, plays a huge part in how you can best help them fit into their new life with you.

Check in tomorrow when I'll be sharing some Relationship Survival Keys for living with your Natural World Dog Blend

Do you know the power of giving your dog the chance to ‘shake off’ their stress?

The findings of this incredibly study is one of the reasons it’s particularly important to keep on-lead encounters to short bursts of a few seconds.

Dogs are amazing ❤️

Super proud to be a part of KAD Kids Around Dogs through our professional membership at Phoenix Rehoming.

Debby Lucken is a wonderful, kind advocate of building a strong relationship of trust between dogs and children in a home. She also educates on the importance of preparing adults to successfully integrate a baby into a home a dog is already part of.

Welcome to Your Dog’s Pace.

All of my training support is currently charged solely for minimum donations to Phoenix Rehoming - Registered Charity 1175478

I will support any dog from anywhere, just like we do at Phoenix. However, since dog training is my passion but not my day job, I’m running everything entirely to support dog owners, but particularly adopters of rescue dogs for a fair minimum donation to Phoenix.

I have extensive experience of Romanian rescue dogs, I am signed up to Meesh Masters - Romanian Rescue Dog’s Professional’s programme. I am the proud ‘owner’/housemate of two Rommies, with completely different personalities and will not shy away from any concerns you might have. I know it can be hard sometimes, any advice I give will be with the dog’s feelings first and foremost.

I am still on my learning journey (and will be forever, as there is never an end point with learning to be a great trainer in my view). I have contacts with many full-time force-free dog trainers who I can refer you to if your dog needs more time than I can currently offer.

Brilliant post from the excellent Dog Training Advice and Support

In traditional dog training you may often hear that ‘a dog must show respect for now I am the master!’

Well… I don’t personally take such a Darth Vader view on things.

As humans we generally learn to trust, using our knowledge and experience of someone, their behaviour, whether they act consistently and the depth of the emotional connection we have. But we have all had experiences of just how difficult (if possible at all) it is for someone to regain our trust once it’s lost.

Why should this be any different for how we treat our companion animals?

We want to show or dogs consistency, that if they behave in a certain way good things *always* happen. We don’t set unrealistic or unchanging goals, we set them up for success. We support them when scary things do happen, and we never punish them for feeling worried, that is how we can maintain their trust in us.

Think of your relationship with your dog as a bank account, every positive interaction is a deposit - every time you punish you make a withdrawal. As soon as your account goes overdrawn then things will just go from bad to worse , keep a nice healthy bank balance and you and your dog will soon end up as millionaires in the relationship stakes.

Let's be good to our dogs and choose trainers that are educated, ethical and empathetic

I am privileged to be Trustee for Phoenix Rehoming, an ethical, diligent charity who put our dogs first and promote only kind, science led force-free training.

Training with a dog’s perspective in mind, at their individual pace has never been so important as it is with anxious rescue dogs.

While I’ve only been volunteering for 2 years, the women who started it all are so hugely inspiring and there are not enough awards in the world to give them the acknowledgment they deserve. Winning the best rescue 2021 at the animal star awards was a huge deal though and I couldn’t be more proud of the Phoenix Team.

I really cannot like this post enough!

Don’t be a YANKER!!!!

There is no need at all EVER to yank your dogs lead to make them
“Comply”........

Would you jab your child in the neck for not walking with you, to make them sit down, for being scared of something or even trying to say hello to their mates across the road????

NO of course you wouldnt!!!

Well that’s the kind of pain and discomfort a dog experiences when there’s a sharp yank applied to their collar to MAKE them stop doing something.......
Really a bit rubbish and outdated wouldn’t you say?
And this stuff is STILL used/promoted by some on socials 😔
It looks quick and is quick BUT its also lazy and VERY damaging physically and mentally.

So in short,

let’s be kind,

TRAIN NOT PAIN,

And remember........

DONT BE A MASSIVE YANKER!!!!! 🙈
