🐽 I will never stop banging on about this.
📈It can help with all things high arousal and might be the key to some of you in helping to find that thing that really knackers them out!

Socialisation is 🗝️
I have seen the effects of lack of socialisation for myself many times over and it can have dramatically negative results.
But remember to keep your dog interested in yourself as well!

🐶🙋🏻♂️The dog-human paradox!
👨🏫 I always preach the following:
📝 It's not a 1 hour dog walk..... it's 1 hour "me time" for your dog.
🐾 This means you need to share the experience with your dog... Capture and reward the moments and behaviours you want to see repeated and avoid the things that send your dog over the top.
🧠The more mindful, engaging and in the moment you are, the more likely your dog will engage with you, increasing that bond and reducing the impact of environmental stressors.
⁉️Are you mindful, or is your mind full?!

⚠️ATTENTION BALL THROWERS!
🏃🏃♀️Exercise is great, hell it's necessary! But it's not just about how many miles we can do per day !
👃I will talk about scentwork until the cows (or dogs) come home, I see first hand every day how much of a difference high frequency search games can make.
😊Scent games are easy, fun and super beneficial for our dogs!

Apologies for the radio silence gang! 🤐
⚒️The clicker is such a useful tool when training for precise behaviours!
❓Any queries just drop us a message and I'll get back to you on how to implement this into your routine.
⛔ The clicker isn't the best tool to use for a dog trying to learn how to settle however, due to it's exciting nature!
🧠 Remember our dogs struggle with levels of excitement and emotion at times
❗ Punishing these naturally occuring sensations in a world difficult to understand designed by humans for humans is so damn confusing for our dogs!
👍Build solid behavioural foundations before you take your dog to the pub for an whole hour (that's a long time for our dogs!)
✅There are basic needs that also need to be accounted for, predatory outlets, adequate exercise, a healthy diet etc
🗣️I guarantee you that when a dog "acts up" 9 times out of 10, the information is there and has been there for us to foresee it
