You don’t always need to allocate time to ‘train’ your dog.
It just requires shifting your mindset and understanding that most dogs are happy to accompany you on any outing which can therefore lead to a training session.
Exposure builds confidence, my two at 11pm last night in a very busy town centre full of drunks. We had to pick up my other half from a Christmas party, so parked further out and walked in and worked on neutrality and steadiness. It’s not their first time doing this but they certainly don’t do it regularly. 🌲
Previously more interested in the environment and running around, in his own head and chasing prey. I’m not asking for heel work or engagement here but there’s a strong positive reinforcement history which means he’s offering it because he wants to. I hold all the keys to his heart, engagement and having those ears for listening and not decoration gets rewarded and in Murphy’s case he is always eager to please as he knows that means treats and or toys. 🐾 #dogwalk #dogwalker #dogworcester ###dogsofworcester #furbaby #furryfriend #dogsofinstagram #dogslife #doglover #dogoftheday #dogwalking #dog #labrador #labsofinstagram #greatdane #cockapoo #spanielsofinstagram #spaniel #spaniellove #sh*tzu #puppy #goldenretriever #goldenretrieversofinstagram #dalmatian #dalmatiansofinstagram #fourpaws #wetnose

No words used here, no hand signals just consistent training and positive reinforcement. Teaching your dog boundaries save life’s.
For those that know me well, know I don’t take risks when it comes to the well-being of my own and customers dogs.
My boys don’t exit their crate, the front door at home or any vehicle without their release word, it could one day save their lives if we suddenly open the door on a busy road with moving traffic.
Teaching your dog boundaries is such a versatile and useful skill, starting with a strong wait and release cue will help along side working on impulse control. There’s also no shame in using a lead to make sure you can control the situation.
Remembering to go back to your dog to reward the wait rather than rewarding once released.
