Reactive dogs aren’t giving you a hard time - they’re having a hard time. 💛

Reactivity isn’t a quick fix, but there are ways to support your dog:

🐾 Try mental enrichment activities instead of stressful walks
🌳 Hire a secure field for safe, trigger-free freedom
🌅 Walk during quiet times — early morning or late evening
🚫 Never punish reactivity — it’s your dog expressing their feelings

✨ If you’re struggling with your dog’s reactivity, you’re not alone!
I’m a positive reinforcement trainer and a certified Reactivity Coach through The Dog Trainer School, here to help you every step of the way.

Let’s support your dog, together. 💬🐶

🌾 Just a gentle reminder…Not everything has to be about doing.Dogs, like us, need space to be.To rest.To feel the ground beneath their paws.To take in the wind, the smells, the stillness.This is just as important as any training session.Maybe even more.We are beings, not doings. 🐾

What a great post explaining why your dog might be hu***ng! Super informative and helpful for any pet parent trying to understand this behavior. Thanks for shedding light on something that can be confusing or even embarrassing sometimes! 🐶💡👏

HU***NG HOUNDS
It’s not always about what it looks like.

Some dogs do and some dogs don’t, but if you have a dog that humps at the most inopportune times it can be particularly embarrassing or annoying.

Other dogs, other people, visitors, toys, cushions, furniture, anything that can be mounted and clung to may be fair game.

As people, it’s natural to assume that this behaviour is of a sexual nature, that our dogs must be oversexed, sexually frustrated or the all-too-common incorrect belief that our dogs are just trying to be “dominant” or “the alpha”.

Hu***ng, like many other dog behaviours does not always have a simple reason. It can be a complex behaviour which is usually emotionally or socially based.

When hu***ng is annoying another dog or person or causing frustration, discomfort or harm in any way, then obviously this behaviour needs to be addressed, but sometimes we need to consider if it’s really something we need to stop because as people, we see it as socially unacceptable?

Is it just a harmless way of relieving stress or anxiety or a way to release excess energy. Is a little hump now and then okay if it’s not causing any harm?

One of my boys (I’m referring to my dog - just to prevent any misunderstanding!) humps one of my other dogs every Saturday morning without fail.

This happens when we get back from a long walk in nature. I allow him to do this because I understand it’s his way of releasing excitement and calming himself down.

As long as the other dogs don’t mind, I don’t believe it’s causing any harm as it’s a healthy way of self-regulating.

If we prevent this, correct it, or at worst punish this behaviour are we removing a harmless natural outlet and risking another unwanted behaviour taking its place?

Hu***ng is one of the most misunderstood behaviours.

Very often, behaviour is not about the way it looks, but the way we perceive it from our human perspective.

Such a lovely puppy class in the sunshine today! 🌞

Huge thank you to for joining us and sharing so many brilliant tips on safe exercise, play, and protecting those growing puppy joints — so valuable for our owners (and their pups!).

And extra thanks for snapping some photos of me teaching — I’m never in any pictures because I’m always behind the camera! So nice to have some memories captured.

We love sharing knowledge and supporting our puppy owners to give their dogs the very best start in life.

Puppies are cute but what is the reality of owning one?

Stress? Sleepless nights? Cleaning mess? Constantly wondering what they are up to? Puppy blues?

Does this sound familiar? If yes get in touch and we can chat through training options that will suit you and your puppy 🐶

I offer puppy classes, bespoke training packages, one to one session in person or online.
