Mr Titan 🤎 and his “look at me I’m cute” . He knows exactly what he’s doing with those eyes and cute looks. Unfortunately for him, Godma doesn’t fall for it. But he is cute as. 🥹

I have admiration for anyone who rescues our local dogs. The Sri Lankan dog is a unique special breed. Ones that deserve a chance. People always over look them and choose to get a so called pure breed of dog and refer to our local dogs as not the good dog and the pure Breds are good dogs. I don’t see it that way. Dog is dog and the effort and commitment you put in to create a strong relationship with them through clear communication and understanding is what will get the “good” dog that you want. But in order to have a well behaved good dog, you need to be a knowledgeable responsible dog owner. Gigi and Chekoh with their mom Anishka are the example of just that. 🤎

The sweetest boy
When people ask me what I can do to help them train their dog, this boy has been the example these days. Grateful for him. He went from being a little baby shark naughty puppy, to a gentleman and he’s only 2 years old. Proud of you mr kiwi. Your parents have done an excellent job with you!! Consistent hard work pays off! Rottweilers are gentle giants, its not the breed it’s not the dog, it’s how you choose to raise them.

When you meet a dog, what do you see? More importantly what do you feel?
This is what I see, an incredible species, a sentient being, a teacher, something of beauty, only god could have created.
This is what I feel, a beautiful soul, an unspoken connection, undeniable love, a far superior intelligence, at home. ❤️

Now you tell me ⬇️ let me know about the incredible connection you have with a dog .

Putting in the work! Well done . As I always say training is all day every day, and how much effort you put in will determine how well mannered your dog is. Mental stimulation and physical stimulation every day is vital for your dogs well being. Erika and trapper are doing so well together in his program. But please remember when you get a dog, it takes a lot of work , and then some more.

Want your dog to walk like this with you? Without pulling? As with anything , learning to do it the right way plays a huge role.

Learning basics come and sit, Puppy training requires a super human level of patience. But if you commit to consistency of training, you will always win.
Don’t mind my messy floors, she was dropping chicken bits 😅 cleaning after them is mostly what owning a puppy is like.

Keeping your dogs calm at the vet is so underrated in Sri Lanka, taking the time to get your dog familiarized with the vet, the smells of the environment, the different distractions is key to having as many positive experiences with your preferred veterinarian. Find a Vet who takes the time to get to know your dog and not judge the dog by it’s “outfit” “how they look” but rather to get to know the personality of the dog. Don’t just take your dogs to the vet when they are unwell, hurt, but also just to visit the vet so they can learn to trust the doctor. Take them with you when buying medications etc. if you want to introduce your dog to wearing a muzzle get them familiar with it at home lots of rewards /training and practice in other environments so they know it has a positive association. Some vets automatically just want to muzzle your dog wether it’s required or not. especially when they are deemed “dangerous breed” and then the dog freaks out. There is no harm in muzzling your dog if done so properly. But suddenly muzzling your dog can be a traumatic experience for your pet.
Kiwi did great at the the vet. Minor boo boo on his paw. And this was his first time meeting this doctor. She took the time to make him feel comfortable and did not judge him by his out fit. Kiwi is also a well socialized dog therefore making this an an easier experience for the vets too. I’m sharing this to show you, that having your dog at the vet can be a peaceful one, and that we should commend the vets who take the time to know our fur babies.
Note - kiwi is not muzzled that is his haltie (gentle leader) he wears every day when he goes for a walk/anywhere :)

Let me explain - for everyone who asks me if they should get another. My answer is always NO and here’s why.

What you should think of ⬇️

1. If your current dog is bored. Seek activities, ie long walks, training/obedience school , social groups, anything where you and your dog can bond outside of the house.
-
2. If your dog has behavior issues, getting another dog is not going to fix that. It’s the worst thing you can do, if your dog has behavior issues, it’s because you the owner are not meeting their needs. You need to work closer with and consult a professional to correct the unwanted behavior. If you don’t have time to train one dog , you think a second is going to make it easier? Yeah definitely not.

3. Obedience training. Exercise. Spay/neuter!

4. Dedicate the necessary time for your dog. make it a part of your daily routine to exercise them. So that when they do need to be alone it’s not difficult for them. If one dog is destructive then two is going to be a tornado. Don’t get dogs if you don’t have time to raise the first one.

Basically, if your dog has any issues, getting another dog to make it better does not work. A part of being a dog owner is to supervise your all day long. Not leave them to do what they please or figure it out on their own. Recipe for disaster and bad pet parenting.

The only time you should get another dog, is because your first dog is super well trained, you have the time to commit to the second dog like you do for the first, and you have the budget to care for both dogs. cause you have to double the expense!

Also in a time of constant migration to other countries, if you can’t afford to take one? You definitely won’t be able to take two. And abandoning them to migrate is not an option. And should never be the case.
I mention this point because a lot of dogs have been left behind . And it’s heartbreaking.
