“A dog is born wild . . . he must be trained to be free.”
“So when we set out to train our pup to be mannerly, our influence should cause the dog to learn that by being subordinate, in other words by occupying that part of its temperament that puts it into harmony with our needs and wishes, the dog nevertheless experiences his highest degree of gratification. From the dog’s point of view, he feels in control of what’s happening because his greatest drive is being satisfied and in terms of group purpose, rather than any individual’s self-interest. Being in his place has to work for a dog, his instincts need to be gratified” #KevinBehan #NaturalDogTraining #YourDogisYourMirror
Dog Walking Tips
Met these sweet doggies the other day and took them for a walk. The owner had been working with a trainer to stop their pulling on walks. It's an approach I have not seen yet and while very creative it seemed to actually work against the ultimate goal of moving well together. As you can see
the feedback from the leash was not communicating to the dogs the message the owner was trying to convey "it feels better to walk with me".
Due to the heat it was important that I was able to keep them off pavement and not interrupt any panting (how dogs cool down). So I switched the leashes to a traditional slip and within minutes of meeting and walking these dogs for the first time, we were walking in harmony.
When you use the right tool the right way it's easy to communicate what you want. Follow and like for more training tips on the Doggie's Day Off Difference using Kevin Bean's Natural Dog Training Method.

Enzo, a Belgian Malinois from Abu Dhabi, was starting to show aggression to strangers and nipping at children. Amna, her owner, started reading Kevin’s book Your Dog is Your Mirror and realized she wanted to find a deeper rapport with Enzo and not just correct her behavior.
This video is their first zoom lesson where they are learning the first core exercise of Natural Dog Training, Pushing. You see Enzo keeps giving her energy to other people and kids rather then moving it with Amna. So instead they are learning to move together. As Enzo feels like she can invest more energy into Amna she will waste less of it on her “problem” behaviors.
If you don’t show your dog how good it feels to move it’s energy with you they will learn to put it somewhere else! Want to know more!? Digital training means you can learn anywhere!

Before we ask our dog to do something so unnatural, like staying connected to us while prey is walking about or big vibrating lawn mowers are buzzing around, we must first instill a trust and understanding that behaviors such as stay and heel are part of what gets them what they want. Once the dog feels that these desired behaviors also access their own desires then cooperation can be achieved.
This is what makes Natural Dog Training so different. Kevin created his method in a way that a dog can feel like all their natural instincts and drives can be fulfilled by performing the actions and behaviors desired by their owners. It is only by working together that everyone can get what they want.

Bree is such a special dog! She is not only blind but also has been dealing with seizures.

“It’s easy to control a self-confident dog because a dog-in-drive is in control of its instincts; whereas it’s extremely hard work, if not impossible, to control a fearful or nervous dog given that its instincts will be in charge. . . the "feeling" of being in a "rhythm" or "groove" that in the immediate moment feels good and which ultimately leads the dog to the condition of feeling fulfilled.” ~ Kevin Behan📚 Natural Dog Training
How was your dog feeling over this holiday weekend!? Did you spend all your time worrying and coddling them? Both you and your dog don’t have to be stuck in this anxious state every time a neighbor is celebrating or a thunderstorm rolls in. Just because your dog is fearful now doesn’t mean they have to always live by that fear. Take gun dogs for example they hear the loud bang of a gun, and instead of triggering their fear instincts, they feel drive and motivation for it granting access to the thing they want most. Prey. But you can’t teach them this through reassurance, in fact if you reassure them when they are afraid your are reinforcing that state of fear. Learn more about how you can use their hunting instincts to switch from fearful to fulfilled, contact us today! #anxiousdog #fireworkanxiety #movethroughfear #movingwellisfeelingwell #somatichealing #fearfuldog #dogtransformation #happydoghappylife #doggiesdayoff #4thofjulyweekend #fireworks💥 #loudnoises #awaythrough #dogrehab #heartwork #myrtlebeach #myrtlebeachsc #surfsidebeach #marketcommons #murrellsinlet #conwaysc #upstatenewyork #saratogasprings #albanyny #denvercolorado #austintexas #abudhabi #ohio
It’s like having a whole amusement park open just for you and your doggie! Baloo had so much fun running around , swimming, sniffing and exploring the dog park. Because he wasn’t distracted by all his doggie friends he stayed engaged and we were able to work on some fun off leash training games like hide-n-go-seek to promote his recall.
Sometimes your doggie just wants to play with you! 🤗🐾🐶 #naturaldogtraining #dogpark #barcparksouth #doggiepark #nolines #nolinesbydesign #alltoyourself #doggieandmeday #doggiesdayoff #doggiesdayout #recalltraining #dogtrainingtips #dogtrainerlife #heartwork #happydog #happydoghappylife #myrtlebeach #myrtlebeachsc #upstatenewyork #saratogaspringsny #albanyny #vermontlife #abudhabi #coastalcarolina #aikensc #myrtlebeachstatepark #denverco #calidog #floridabeaches #newjerseylife Visit Myrtle Beach, South Carolina
“If your dog looks away, or jumps at you, or stares fixedly, then its subliminal beam of attention is referencing its inner ear canal, and it’s trying to off-load pressure. If your dog sits, licks its lips, or breaks the intensity of its gaze with a softening of expression, then it is referencing the little brain in its gut. If a deep bark resonates from the very pit of its stomach, its entire body flexing from the sit position as if the bark were riding out of its body on a wave, then it is referencing its heart; because its two brains are completely reconciled, it has projected its emotional center of gravity into your heart and is feeling that by looking into your eyes.” ~ Kevin Behan 📚 #yourdogisyourmirror Natural Dog Training
Old man Hunter’s day off at the beach was a sight to behold. While his body may not be able to keep up with his puppy dog heart, he was still able to enjoy his favorite beach things and feel the heart connection with those around him. Like the waves of the ocean we move feeling back and forth between ourselves and those we interact with. 💞🐾🌊
