****COPIED****
Your Dog is Not a Baby!
Todays culture is absolutely ruining dogs and as behaviourists we are seeing more and more preventable problems appearing not only at our facilities but in the public domain too!
People are treating their dogs like children, and no matter how much you say it, or what you believe, they are not children. They are dogs... An apex predator with forty two teeth in their head and a bite pressure that can break bones.
They deserve treating like dogs!
Somehow treating your dog like a dog has become a taboo subject and its because of the warped, snowflake generation that's flooding the industry.
Can't say no to a dog.
Can't go in cold weather with a dog.
Can't let a dog get muddy.
Can't give a dog a job.
Can't feed a dog raw meat.
If your dog is in shape its too skinny.
We are walking around in a world where giving your dog a job is cruel beyond belief but having a dog 30kg overweight with diabetes falling out of its ears is absolutely fine. It's warped and twisted and wrong.
They are dogs! Treat them as dogs. You cannot take any pristine animal on this earth and pretend that it's a baby. Oh hello, this is my whale, he is my baby. It doesn't work like that, and if you respect the dog, it doesn't work with them either.
We have to push back on this snowflake mentality because it is literally killing dogs. Dogs are being euthanised every day purely because nobody told them what rules they were supposed to follow or because they weren't given a job they so desperately wanted.
Let's start honouring our dogs for the absolutely amazing creatures they are. Dogs are magnificent, majestic, intelligent, robust. For me, they are the best animal on the planet so let's stop killing them and treat them for exactly what they are.
Honour your dog.

25 years is no joke. I've learned a lot! Both through my personal experiences, and sharing experiences with clients.

Here are some of my top lessons:

When you’re at a HIGHER level of fitness ISN’T the time to stop. It’s a time to enjoy your body’s expression of movement, to notice how strong you’ve become and to maintain your new found bad-assery. You’ve set a new standard for yourself, not achieved a finished goal.

Injuries don’t heal themselves, get professional help if possible. And don’t wait too long. After 12 weeks, you are in chronic injury land. It isn’t a cool place to hang out and you will develop compensatory movement patterns, and pain, if you don’t address it. PS. Ignoring isn’t addressing 😜��

On that note, when you’re recovering from an injury, when you start to feel better is NOT the time to stop doing your physiotherapy/mobility etc. You need some physical space from the injury. Keep going until you’re comfortable, and it’s resolved 100% for a minimum of two weeks and then taper off a bit at a time. Monitor if it’s coming back. You will want to stop. Rehab is annoying, like really annoying. You can’t quit yet.

Mobility is HUGE for health span. People often say ‘I’m older and recovery from injuries is so much harder.’ While this is true, the other truth is that often when mobility is ignored there are years of imbalances to recover from too! Not just the injury.

Feet. Why don’t people talk about feet outside of complaining about plantar fasciitis? Your feet should have as much dexterity has your hands! Think about that. Think about what your hands do in a day, all the complex motor skills. Now, slip your socks off and see how much your feet can do. You will be shocked at their limited abilities. Work on it.

What lessons have you learned from fitness? It doesn't need to feel profound, all the lessons are good ones.
