Play Your Way To An Obedient Dog

Play Your Way To An Obedient Dog Play is often talked about as if it were a relief from serious learning. But for children, play is serious learning. Play is really the work of childhood.

Remember when you were a kid and were always playing? You often made mistakes, but those mistakes never got in the way of you trying again, trying something new, and ultimately coming to a place of success. Dogs and other species are no different when it comes to the learning process that games and play offer. Failure is only a platform to try harder, mistakes are only a tool for learning the corr

ect movements and processes, frustration and stress are minimal and enhance rather than detract from reaching the goals of the game. Why Play?
“Play is training for the unexpected.” Marc Bekoff, Contemporary American biologist
Play does so many positive things for us in terms of learning. When we play:
• We build skills like confidence
• We strengthen relations with others
• We develop creative skills
• We problem solve and tinker
• We learn to be flexible
People who play learn to question something, predict an outcome, and evaluate their predictions through the process of play. When we play, we persist through challenges -- and we even enjoy it. Play builds excellent social and emotional skills and helps create an atmosphere where those skills are valued. Probably one of the most important aspects of play is the way it treats failure and mistakes as non-punitive, ensuring that we have opportunities to learn from whatever went wrong. Yes, play makes failure fun. I love the use of the word "tinker" to describe play. It's serious work, but it's also fun work. Play values the process of learning as well as well as what has been learned.

Preparing your dog to be comfortable with an exam, not fearful and anxious means that you take the time to get her used to being gently handled and restrained for nail trims, being brushed, ear and eye exams, looking inside her mouth, having her temperature taken and more by teaching them, at home. It’s not rocket science, in fact, it’s simpler than you can imagine, and it most often becomes something your dog looks forward to. By making the association with being handled and restrained a positive one through teaching basic husbandry skills, your dog will love going to the vet, the groomer, a boarding facility or pet sitter.

Fear has always been a tool for the money mongers to control with decisive maneuvers for the benifits to them while claiming to provide for the masses they control. This goes back as far as time goes back because the desire to amass great wealth for the small minority comes with no boundaries. learning what causing fear meant to their desires propelled even more fear to be handed out.

“This is the truth: We are a nation accustomed to being afraid. If I’m being honest, not just with you but with myself, it’s not just the nation, and it’s not just something we’ve grown used to. It’s the world, and it’s an addiction. People crave fear. Fear justifies everything. Fear makes it okay to have surrendered freedom after freedom, until our every move is tracked and recorded in a dozen databases the average man will never have access to. Fear creates, defines, and shapes our world, and without it, most of us would have no idea what to do with ourselves. Our ancestors dreamed of a world without boundaries, while we dream new boundaries to put around our homes, our children, and ourselves. We limit our potential day after day in the name of a safety that we refuse to ever achieve. We took a world that was huge with possibility, and we made it as small as we could.”

In addition to not letting anyone tell you that there is no hope, don't let anyone talk you into using tools that when improperly used can truly hurt your dog. Learn to be the focus in your dog's life instead of trusting an inanimate object to control your dog. My philosophy on this is that if you need to rely on, or think you must rely on, a tool to keep your dog under control, then you are not the one in control.
