The Dog Coach

Wow I wonder what this little cutie was like!

Mummy of a 3,500-year-old dog,
It was the little dog of Pharaoh Amenhotep from 1427 BC.

Found mummified with his necklace, a bowl of water and his own perfume bottle.

This mummy of a dog was found inside tomb KV50, known as the Tomb of the Animals, in the Valley of the Kings.

It is believed to be one of the pets of Pharaoh Amenhotep II, who ruled Ancient Egypt between 1427 and 1401 BC, due to the proximity of this tomb to that of the pharaoh.

Trainers who understand separation anxiety, or dog anxiety in general, won't blame you. ✌️❤️

They won't tell you that you're weak. 😞

That you need to show leadership. 🤦 🙄

That you're neurotic.

Or that you need to stop babying your dog.

A good trainer will talk to you adult-to-adult.

They will empathize and understand. 🤗

But most importantly, they will use transparent, evidence-based methods to help you through this. 💪

100% absolutely. Covid complicated things, but generally speaking, you should be with your dog (and cat) unless it’s a sterile procedure/surgery.

why do vets take your pet to the back

This is very interesting research! There is a lot more to behavior than what meets the eye:

https://news.arizona.edu/story/hormone-could-be-making-your-dog-aggressive

Thousands of people are hospitalized every year for dog bites, and aggressive behavior is a reason dogs end up in shelters. The UA's Evan MacLean studied the biology behind canine aggression, specifically the role of the hormones vasopressin and oxytocin. With UANews video.
