What a cute frenchie!

Learning in progress, the aim is to get him sit in the stroller calmly & quietly so the owners get to enjoy their time at any restaurant/cafe 😋

A young pup with endless energy, naughty and hyperactive.

Today is his training, he learnt extremely fast and turned out not so high energy at all 😂

With the righty correction, consistent practice, he changed instantly and became a good boy.

Well done, Copper. Will teach you more when we meet next round 😆

My dogs’ resolution for 2023 would be:
More snacks, more outing, more fur friends! What’s your dog’s resolution? Happy new year to all fur kids & fur parents! 🎊

Many said dogs learn and adapt their owners behaviors which I think it’s true, from a dog behaviourist trainer angle as well as a dog owner angle.

They pick up emotional information from us and adjust their behaviour accordingly, i.e.: when we are feeling sad, they will sense it, some will feel sad and some will try to comfort us in their way.

Next time when you feel mad about a misbehaviour by your dog, take a deep breath and think how do you want to stop the issue, how to guide and teach him/her from wrong to right, before you show your anger at them because you should know very well it will create more issues than solving one.

This lab is 8-year old and experienced training for the first time in his life.

Walking him has been exhausting as he pull, bite on leash, and jump on strangers.

But today, he is a brand new dog 😂 the owner finally experienced a peaceful slow walk with him, for the first time in 8 years.

Like I always said, it’s never too late to train your dog. 😄

It’s never too late to train the perfect pooch and they are always ready to be a better dog.

“The warm sun helps your dog to regulate its temperature. Other than getting comfortable, it is also enjoying the production of Vitamin D in the body. The latter is important as it is regarded as a pro-hormone and not simply a kind of vitamin. Without vitamin D, the dog cannot absorb calcium. The animal can only make it in direct sunlight. The generated Vitamin D is kept in the hair and in fatty tissues. It assists to regulate the phosphorus and calcium balance of the body. This vitamin is a must for bone formation. It also helps in controlling the nerves and the muscles. A majority of the Vitamin D used in the body is obtained through the diet. A substantial portion is created with the help of direct sunlight as similar to humans.

The processing of Vitamin D is not the same for dogs and humans. This is as dogs have fur. The canines cannot efficiently absorb the Vitamin D3 back into the body. The vitamin remains below the fur. The dogs eat it orally when they lick and groom themselves. It is apparent that the absorption of Vitamin D in dogs via sunlight is inefficient. Majority of this vitamin comes through the diet. This is the reason your dog likes to groom itself.”

Why does your dog love mud? 🤨

19/04/2022

It’s important to keep your furkid hydrated, especially on super hot weather days😉

Common conversations I have with many dog owners:

Owner 👦👧: “Do you use dog treats when you train?”

Me 👧: “No. Because you do not need treats to reward your dog. And what happen when you do not have any dog treats with you?”

Don’t use dog treats as bribes as your dog might not respond unless he/she sees you have something for ‘em. Sound familiar? 😆

Time to save money on the treats, and start to be creative with your rewards.

Our furkids need rules, boundaries, disciplines and limitations. Start your list if you don’t have one 😂

If your dog is stressed, he/she will often look in the opposite direction of the stressor, that’s his/her way of signalling stress/avoidance.

Also, do observe the body languages and notice if there’s any tension, ie: from the face, mouth, ears, body to tail.

Observing these signals through your dog’s body languages is the key to a healthy, happy, balanced relationship with your dog.

It’s always interesting to learn new ways and methods to communicate with them.

Learn the right training approach to unleash your dog’s true pawtential.

But remember this, your dog need you to be constant & consistent in the practice, repetition, and guidance.

It’s a team work, magic will not happen by itself if you don’t play your part.

Time to get serious and act like a pack leader, your dog is “always on” to learn and please, do you know that?

From super fearful to this.

We melted each other’s heart in a good way 🥰

This didn’t happen overnight. Hard work, patience, practice, trial & error, love, trust, time and so much more we put in to get here.

It will only get better. Definitely.

If you want your dog to listen to you, you need to know the proper way to communicate.

Start with less talk, or, no talking at all 😂

Project the right energy (stay calm, assertive), body language (use it and observe your dog’s too), and not forgetting your best tool - the leash.

Your dog is always communicating, just in a different way. Time to learn their language and talk in the proper way. 😉

So many ups ⬆️ than downs since the rescue.

Her change is amazing, her personality is lovely, her learning is fast, her run is crazy fast & beautiful, her licking is crazy, and her name is Arya.

Happy birthday 🎈
Stay happy as always!

1 year of new life, happy birthday Arya 🧡

The summary of Arya’s life transformation; the hardest rescue, the most people involved, support & help from many friends and friends of friends for us, the memorable rehabilitation we both went through and learning for you as well as me to constantly observe, think, try new or modify my ways, methods, to be creative, to do what I need to do to rehab and build bond with you.

Arya touched many people’s heart and she still is. I’m glad to have met you, looking forward to many many more years with you.

From super skittish dog to a brave, happy and outgoing girl now. That’s the best outcome I wished, and you did it well.

Stay happy, stay active, stay crazy, Arya!

Look or not to look, touch or not to touch, talk or not to talk, make a lot of difference.

One right action you’ll see change in your dog, one wrong action you’ll see no change.
