My goal in training my dog is to be able to experience the world together. Your goal(s) may be different but I can definitely help you reach them! If you're ready to get to work, contact me to get started either in person or virtually! #dogtraining #dogtrainer
Oftentimes we hear complaints from owners regarding their dog's behaviors and decisions because they truly don't understand where their dog is coming from. We've still got A LOT to learn about canines and their psychology but we also know a lot currently! Try to meet your dog where they are and understand that your dog is doing THEIR best every day. I promise once you understand how your dog sees the world, things get that much easier.
Step by step guide of what to do if you're charged by an off leash dog: π Practice what you'll do BEFORE you have to do it. You'll be more prepared to make logical decisions in a high stress situation. π Stay calm. If your dog is with you, you don't want to freak them out any more than they already will be with a dog running right at them. π If you can't put your dog in a down SAFELY and leash up the oncoming dog, get between that dog and your dog and get ready to advocate. Take a big step forward and shout firmly "NO!". This should stun the dog enough for you and your dog to make a safe exit. Be sure you are between your dog and other dog the entire time. You may have to repeat this step if the off leash dog follows you. π If all else failsβand I am not jokingβdo what you need to do to get that dog away from you and your dog.

So how do you know whether a dog trainer is worth it? Do they spend enough time with their dog(s) to actually train them properly or are they constantly on nationwide tours training other dogs? When they talk to you, are they teaching you or are they belittling you? How much time during your training sessions do YOU spend interacting with your dog? Is what they teach personalized to you, or is it all general information that doesn't quite hit the spot? When you're looking for a dog trainer, look for ones who truly educate! Look at their dog and the relationship they have with the dog. Is it genuine?

Around here, we don't spank or beat dogs. We learn how to properly communicate and tap into the teamwork it takes to be successful.
We don't do dog parks anymore. If you haven't heard, tell a friend. Dog parks are not a safe nor effective way to socialize your dog as they promote chaos and dysfunction. If you want to socialize your dog, do so in a structured environment. I promise your dog will thank you for it!
Your dog doesn't need the attention of others or of other dogs. They need YOU! If you need help building that relationship with your dog, fear not! I've openings in early November just for you! π #dogtrainer#dogtraining #openmindedapproach #tulsapackathletics
