The idea behind socialization is that you want to help your puppy become acclimated to all types of sights, sounds, and smells in a positive manner.
Reward your puppy with lots of treats as different things happening around them (person walking their dog, balloon flying away, plastic bag in road).
Here are a few places to socialize your puppy!
1.City parks
2.Walking/jogging trails
3.mall entrances
4.Your family and friends
Proper socialization can prevent a dog from being fearful of their Environment!
(The second picture is a great checklist to follow)

Happy National Ice Cream day! Now our dogs may not be able to eat regular ice cream but they can enjoy a safe version! Take their Kong and fill it with a wet ingredient like pumpkin, Greek yogurt, or even just regular wet dog food and freeze it! Give it to them to cool off while you enjoy a nice ice cream cone!
If you don't have a Kong, you can also soak a large carrot in beef/chicken broth and freeze those! (Great for dental health)

How is positive reinforcement training different from other training methods?
Positive reinforcement works by rewarding good behaviors, while deterring negative ones through redirection. It doesn’t rely on fear, pain, or negative methods to get your dog to do what you want.
Here are a few facts about positive reinforcement dog training!
1. A study showed that dogs trained with more rewards showed higher levels of obedience!
https://thehappypuppysite.com/the-evidence-for-positive-reinforcement-training-in-dogs/
2.It builds trust and rapport between the owner and their pet!

3. it helps building confidence in your dogs!

Here are 3 common dog training mistakes owners are making and how to fix them!
1. Cue nagging, when your dog doesn't listen the first time so you keep repeating the cue. To fix this only say the cue once and wait for the dog to respond.
2. Poisoning the cues, this means accidentally teaching your dog to associate a cue or behavior with something your dog views negatively will cause them to stop responding to said cue. To fix this practice using the cue on things he loves, and avoid using things your dogs dislike. For Example, if you taught your dog to come but you used to get your dog in the bath and the dog didn't like it this can cause you to negatively associate the bath and the come cue and could stop coming back in general.
3. Not practicing between classes! There is only so much us trainers can do in an hour and if you really want to see improvements practice the lessons about 5-10 minutes a day.

Did you get a dog because they looked calm and peaceful and now you are questioning if they are related to Taz from looney tunes? Here are a few tips to calm them down!
1. A Kong/topple are most commonly used, you can use wet food, peanut butter, pumpkin, and add their dinner in the Kong/topple. you can add a treat to the top of it to get your dog engaged. If you know your dog's likes these try freezing them!
2. Take a cardboard box fill it with different things, rags, packing paper, etc. anything that is going to be okay for your dog to smell and chew, and then sprinkle their kibble in there.
For little dogs you can use an egg carton and put the food in the carton and shut the lid.
3.Use an old towel or blanket and spread their kibble on the towel/ blanket tightly roll it and tie a loose knot. Your dog should use majority of their body and all of their brain to get the knot undone.

As my page grows, I'd like to tell all of you a few things about me! I graduated from GJHS in 2020 and then I graduated from Animal Behavior College in 2022. There has never been a time in my life where I haven't had at least 1 dog! We currently have 3 dogs, Roxy our oldest (Dachshund), Harlow our middle child (Rottweiler), and Gigi our baby (Pug). I also have a bearded dragon Drago and two chinchillas Sansa and Arya! (I love game of thrones) We have had dogs, cats, ducks, hedgehogs, so basically, I love animals! I love what I do, and I love being the voice for the dogs. If you were to ask my clients, I have many fun facts about why dogs do what they do and how to communicate with your dogs and be there voice.

Here are some pictures of me, my family and all my dogs or animals I've played with!!
