Make sure you PROOF TRAIN your dog! I have so many clients say, ‘they do it fine at home’, or ‘they only do it in class’….This is due to LACK of proof training. 🙌Proof training is when you take a learned behaviour, and ask for it in different scenarios. Do they understand still when you’re on grass instead of carpet? Do they seem to ‘forget’ when you take them to the beach? Is there focus non existent when you come into class? Do they go ‘deaf’ when other dogs are around?If this sounds familiar - you need to get comfortable & confident in proof training those behaviours in a variety of situations. Let it become a habit to ask for a seemingly unnecessary behaviour when you’re in an environment that doesn’t require it (e.g asking for a sit stay when you’ve just entered the park, ask for their paw when another dog is visible, or ask for a sit in the rain etc). Practicing these improve the likelihood of you maintaining engagement with your dog should you need it. To have control of your dog is the ONLY way you can ensure they’re safe.. so why wouldn’t you want to build up those good habits ahead of time. No good practicing a recall when your dog is darting towards the road.. practice it BEFORE you need it. Happy dog training 😁 #practicemakesperfect #southcoastdogtraining #dogtrainingtips #dogtrainingvideo #prooftraining #texture #weather #distractions #dogoftheday

What is neutrality? Simply put… It’s a lack of reactivity! And it’s blissful. Reduce the PRESSURE, by increasing the DISTANCE. Reactivity stems from a pressure related to proximity, so be meaningful with how and where you position your dog in proximity to others. Remember - always reward good choices! 😍#gooddog #photogenicdog #cockerspaniel #reactivitytraining #practicecalmness
