Just like anything that you teach, you can also teach your dog to default to calmness. You can teach dogs; calmness is what pays off in life.

Once established when exciting, arousing, or challenging events occur, your dog will automatically default to calmness. So their stress never gets high enough to cause those naughty behaviors.

And now that your dog has those brilliant default calm behaviors to choose from, they recover quicker when stressful life events occur. So despite life happening around them, there is minimal stress. Kha-Ching! You win!

Teaching Calmness is a crucial ingredient to almost all doggie misbehaviors.

Have your tried to teach your dog to be calm and failed?

Maybe your dog even became less calm

😬 You’re not alone. A lot of us accidentally reward stillness—a dog trying super hard to stay STILL—instead of rewarding true calmness.

🐶💤 This can create stress and a less flexible brain and an increase of arousal.

Instead, what we really want to reward are those little signs of your dog’s body relaxing: a sigh, a droopy head and shoulder, looking away, blinking, softening in their body.

😴 Those are the signs calmness is growing. Keep your eyes peeled for those tiny moments of relaxation! That’s where the magic of calmness grows! 💗🌟

As a dog trainer, clients often tell me,
🐾 my dog needs to run
🐾 my dog needs a home in the country
🐾 I can’t exercise my dog enough, my dog still misbehaves.

Good News!!!

You don’t have to spend hours exercising your dog to have a good dog.
Your tired dog will only behave well until it re-cooperates. And because exercise builds stamina, it will be harder to tire out your dog tomorrow.

Yes, give your dog a reasonable amount of exercise but also train your dog to relax and be calm.

But we can help, sign up for our FREE Conquering Calmness webinar.

Are you doggie illiterate?

Many struggles escalate because we just don’t understand what our dog is trying to communicate.

Julie and Koda have been learning in our Out and About class that the training journey is a one step at a time process.

And you know what? So much of the time tiny steps, small incremental changes will move you to your goals way faster than giant steps.

06/12/2025

Success with taking your dog on walk, hikes, shopping, vacations and outings requires your dog learn foundation:
1 Pre-walk or outing skills
2 loose leash walking,
3 coming when called,
4 Focus and Engagement With You
5 Polite Greetings Stop Jumping
6 And more

But then those skills need to be grown with systematically more and more difficult distractions until those skills are generalized.

The pre-walk or outing skills are most commonly what is missed in the training process. Is that a step you left out?

Our Out And About Deep Dives take you through the process, 1 step at a time.

Do you want Out and About Skills with your dog? The join our Out and About Deep Dives.

⭐️ Just liike when you have a conversation with a person, your dog can tell when you are checked out. If your not fully present, your dog won’t be either.

When you are training your dog or even go on a walk with your dog , clear your head of everything else going on in your life. Give yourself this opportunity to just think about this one thing.

🤔 If you lack appropriate focus, its ok, to just play with your dog and reschedule your training later in the day.
