🤔 And my answer is…

B!

To account for trigger stacking, I always assume that the next trigger is more challenging than it may first appear—even on days when my dog is absolutely nailing their skills. This means that I am more conservative with each passing trigger.

Especially after a close encounter with a flexi, I’m running for the hills if I see another dog, because I want to end our walk on a high note and preserve my dog’s feelings of confidence and accomplishment.

There’s nothing worse than tripping and falling flat on your face just short of the finish line, so dig up that extra ounce of patience and play it safe out there!

Remember: Slow and steady wins the behavior modification race!

I am excited to share that I have completed Michael Shikashio's Aggression in Dogs Master Course. This is one of the most comprehensive courses in aggression and covers everything from resource guarding to breaking up dog fights to human-directed aggression and compassion fatigue.

Michael is the trainer that started my crossover journey thanks to an interview he gave on The Canine Paradigm, and finishing this course feels like a full circle moment. I am so grateful to follow in his footsteps and help owners resolve tough challenges with nothing but a noggin' full of knowledge and a pouch full of treats.

I'm happy to announce that I'm officially a board member for Wag Workshops and will continue to bring positive reinforcement-based dog training to our service members right on base at JBA.

Our mission is to bring top notch, science-backed, pay-what-you-can dog training services to Southern Maryland (which is currently a hotbed of compulsion training). Our work keeps dogs with the families that love them and defends the public from misinformation in our unregulated industry. If you're a dog or animal lover, please consider supporting our work and spreading the word!

My December blog post is up! I'm developing my New Years Resolutions, and of course, it got me thinking about how I can design my life to make consistency easy. Consistency is a pain point for many pet guardians, so I thought I'd expand upon it as we look toward 2024.

Yes, you heard that right – the reason your dog training isn't working as effectively as you'd like could be linked to h...
