Understanding Tail Chasing in Dogs: Insights from Professional Dog Trainers 🧐
Have you ever observed your furry friend chasing its own tail with fervour and wondered why they do it? Here are some factual insights into why dogs chase their tails:
⚡Boredom and Excess Energy: Dogs, especially those with high energy levels or those lacking mental stimulation, may resort to tail chasing as a way to alleviate boredom or burn off excess energy.
🐾Compulsive Behavior: In some cases, tail chasing can escalate into compulsive behaviour. Just like humans, dogs can develop compulsive disorders, and tail chasing may become a repetitive, uncontrollable action. This can be triggered by stress, anxiety, or other underlying medical conditions.
🩺Medical Issues: Although less common, it's essential to consider that tail chasing could be a symptom of an underlying medical problem. Conditions such as allergies, flea infestations, anal gland issues, or neurological disorders may cause discomfort or irritation, prompting a dog to chase its tail as a response.
Understanding why your dog engages in tail-chasing behaviour is the first step in addressing it effectively. If you're concerned about your dog's tail-chasing habits, consulting with a vet first to rule out any medical condition is a priority. If no medically related contact a professional behaviourist to provide tailored guidance and support to help modify the behaviour and ensure your furry companion's well-being.

Hey there, fellow dog lovers!
Are you ready to take your pup's playtime to the next level? Well, hold onto your leashes because we're diving into the world of dog puzzles!
Here are three tail-wagging benefits of incorporating these brain-teasing toys into your furry friend's routine:
🐾Mental Stimulation Galore: Just like us humans, dogs need mental exercise too! Dog puzzles challenge their minds and keep those sharp little brains buzzing with excitement. It's like a game of chess for your canine companion, but with treats as the ultimate prize! Plus, it helps prevent boredom and reduces the likelihood of them getting into mischief around the house. Win-win for everyone!
🐾Promotes Healthy Eating Habits**: Is your pup a lightning-fast eater, scarfing down their meals in seconds flat? Slow down the chow train with dog puzzles! These clever contraptions not only challenge your furry friend's brain but also encourage them to eat more slowly and mindfully. By dispersing their food or treats throughout the puzzle, it forces them to work for their meal, preventing gulping and promoting better digestion. It's like turning mealtime into a gourmet adventure!
🐾Bonding Bonanza: Who says puzzles are just for solo play? Nope, not in the dog world! Engaging with your furry friend through puzzle games strengthens your bond and builds trust. Whether you're guiding them through the challenge or cheering them on from the sidelines, it's quality time spent together that both of you will cherish. Plus, the joy on their face when they finally solve the puzzle. Priceless!
🐾So, there you have it, folks! Dog puzzles aren't just a fun pastime—they're a paw-some way to keep your pup's mind sharp, beat boredom, and deepen your bond. Ready to unleash the fun? Let's puzzle it out together!

🐶 Crate training dramas? 🐶
Is your doggo not quite getting the hang of it?
You've heard all the wonderful stories about how great crates are. Other puppy parents swear by them.
But your puppy happily explores everywhere else, but his crate.
Maybe this sounds a little like your reality right now?
🐾 Your puppy is too frightened to go inside their crate
🐾 You wake up or come home to find accidents in their crate
🐾 Your puppy whines all night
I remember the crate training challenges I had with my dog Titan in those first few months.
It's tough, I get that.
But the thing is, puppies don't come into the world knowing what we want them to do. They need patience and gentle encouragement to help them on their way.
I've helped hundreds of puppies and their owners over the last 10 years, In particular teaching puppies how to love their crate.
I know sometimes this is easier said than done. So if you'd like some expert support to help you use a crate to:
🐾 Provide a safe space for your puppy
🐾 Help your puppy settle
Or any other crate training stresses you and puppy have...
Then DM me and let's talk about how we can make that happen.
