When you brought your little puppy home…
Did you look into their eyes and think,
One day I’ll need to dominate you?
Or did you just want to love them?

Did you imagine you’d need to “show them who’s boss”?
Or were you hoping to be their safe place?

If they jump up, pull on the leash, or bark too much…
Is it really about defiance, or is it confusion, fear, or excitement?

Why do we believe that control must come through force or fear?
What if leadership looked more like guidance and less like domination?

Dominance theory is based on outdated ideas.
Our dogs aren’t trying to take over, they’re trying to connect.

So…
What kind of relationship do you want with your dog?
One built on power, or one built on trust?

🌟 Fraggle the brilliant Moyan Poodle had a fantastic training session today, building confidence, resilience and focus. 🐾💪

We practised walking behind the wheelchair to navigate narrow gaps, took time to take in the world with calm curiosity, and finished with a bit of joyful parkour! 🧠✨

With the care and compassion his handler brings to every session, there’s no doubt Fraggle is on the path to becoming an outstanding assistance dog. ❤️

Next, he’ll be learning pattern games because there’s real power in every pattern an assistance dog understands. 🔁🐕
