Simon says; go out there and seize today.
This young man is working on building confidence through exposure, and pressure. Getting dogs on different surfaces, and in different environments is paramount. You will never trump genetics, but a dog that’s never been outside of an apartment is probably going to bolt the first time a car goes by. A dog that’s been exposed this way is going to be more desensitized than a dog that’s hasn’t.
Then there is pressure. Simon has caught on so quick because it’s innate for dogs. Man didn’t teach dogs pressure. He’s learning that he doesn’t have to run away, or react behind a fence to make his problems go away. Pressure is creating clarity for him.
Pressure makes 💎, and it we already got a gem on our hands 🐕
