Yes, we love cats too!
I‘m back with my little buddy Mio. It took the longest time for him to trust me and it has been so rewarding gaining his trust. Now I spend my days serving him. He has no problem bossing me around 😂

Great information! It’s very important to understand dogs body language

You might not always notice, but dogs have their own way of showing when they're stressed out. These subtle signs, or "stress signals", can mean they're feeling stressed, anxious, confused, scared, or even excited.

Context plays a huge role in interpreting a dog's body language. If you want to get to the bottom of their stress when you see those signals, you have to consider everything happening around them.

Dogs may display stress signals even when they're experiencing a good type of stress, known as eustress (see previous post for the differences between eustress and distress). During moments of excitement or during a training session, you might notice them shaking off or yawning. These behaviors help them relieve stress, which is a healthy response and suggests that they are in the process of learning.

Shaking off and yawning in dogs can also be signs of distress, that's why it's crucial to take a step back and assess the situation to understand what's going on.

By recognizing these stress signals, you can better understand your dog and, if necessary, take action to help them feel more comfortable and less stressed.

We are so happy to introduce this sweet boy! Here is what Emily had to say about him:

"Hi! My name is Rudy! If you are lucky enough to take me on a walk, I will be quite the gentleman. I am very good at letting my human take the lead. I am also the king of my castle and I love to greet my guests right from the perch of my window. BUT, my favorite thing is getting snuggles atop my special blanket on my special spot on my couch."
