โThis is what an anxious dog looks like. A lot of you have probably seen this or have this on a daily basis. But it is NOT something you have to live with. You can teach your dog not to whine like this. They are NOT doing it involuntarily. Theyโre choosing to whine. You have to accept that first. My job is to teach them how to relax and that they donโt need to do that. So I donโt just like start correcting the whining. Iโm gonna correct the state of mind first and get into a much better more relaxed state. Then, a lot of times the whining will take care of itself. If it doesnโt, then I can correct it later.โ Full 16 minute video on my YouTube channel. AFTER 10 Day Board & Train video to come soon!
โSomeone is being so good for tricker treatersโ This is a Pawsitive Willow update I received on Halloween! ๐๐๐ (More Halloween pupdates to come in following days) Willowโs family has been doing my private lessons for some weeks now. ๐จโ๐ซ Willow is a one year old hound mix who before training struggled to relax and would often times pace around her familyโs home when they would try to relax. I call dogs like this a bit โresistant to relaxingโ and itโs not by their choice necessarily, but more how they are wired if you will. ๐ง I relate to dogs like this on a personal level because this is how I am wired as well! ๐คช The top shelf remedy for that resistance to relaxing for both dogs and myself is mental stimulation. ๐ก We get to have our cake ๐ฐ and eat it too ๐ with training our dogs because training provides mental stimulation for both you and your dog. ๐คTry training just 2-3 times per day for 10-15 mins using your praise, your dogโs food, or favorite treats as rewards. Note how much calmer they are throughout the day! ๐ค ๐
