It's National Ugly Sweater Day, and we want to see what your pet is wearing today! Bonus points if you and your dog match!

But remember... only dress your pet up if its something they enjoy. If they don't enjoy it, we suggest posing your pet with some holiday decor!

With so many holidays just around the corner, it's important to remember your candle safety when it comes to pets. While you may feel your candles are safe on a coffee table or windowsill, many happy tails or exploring paws can still find their way to them. Be sure you keep all lit candles well out of your pet's reach, or consider using fireless candles. And remember: Never leave a pet unattended in rooms with lit candles!

Have you brought a new dog or puppy into your home recently?

The number one question we get for new dogs and puppies is "how can I potty train them?". These tips will get you started on successful potty training, and if you need more help you can schedule a class or lesson with us!

Gathering with friends and family is a huge part of the holidays... but how can you keep your pet safe during these parties? Between guests going in and out (maybe after drinking), food being passed around, and loud games being played, it's important you take steps to keep your dog safe and secure. Follow these tips to make the holidays better for everyone!

One of the biggest "at risk of dog destruction" decorations you can put up for Christmas would be a Christmas tree.

🐾 The branches make great chew toys
🐾 Decorations look like toys
🐾 An outside thing is inside and may seem like a nice place to potty
🐾 Presents can be SO fun for dogs to unwrap (and maybe eat)

If you have a dog at home, especially a young dog, take some proactive steps to keep your tree AND your dog safe.

Share a photo of your tree and how you are keeping it safe from your dog!

If you've ever been to any of our (free) puppy play groups or taken one of our classes, you've probably heard the phrase "low pressure, safe socialization".

Have you ever heard of the Animal Welfare Five Freedoms?

These are guidelines to ensure captive animals are being well cared for, and the can easily be applied to our pets! We especially love #4- The Freedom To Express Normal Behavior.

Dogs live a very controlled life. We tell them when and what to eat, when and where to sleep, and even when and where they can go to the bathroom. Giving them the time, space, and freedom to perform normal behaviors can greatly increase your dog's quality of life.

What does this look like?
Sniffy walks or dog directed walks
Enrichment activities that promote foraging or "hunting"
Sports that mimic what the dogs instincts want (barn hunt, agility, herding, etc)
Training that engages your dogs desire to sniff
A "digging garden" where your dog can dig and bury things

How do you give your dog the "freedom" to express normal behavior? Let us know in the comments!

Gifting a puppy for the holidays can be tempting, but as a dog trainer, I can tell you it's usually not a good idea!

The holidays are busy and stressful. There are decorations and food around. People are coming and going. The weather is cold, and it's no fun going outside at 3am while potty training a puppy in a blizzard. All of these things make having a puppy incredibly stressful, and is why shelters see a huge increase in relinquished pets the weeks after Christmas.

Even if a puppy is right for your family, it's often better to wait until after the holidays. Waiting also allows you to discuss with your family when and what puppy is right. If you are thinking of gifting a dog to an older family member, it allows them to decide if they would prefer an adult dog. But that doesn't mean you can't give them the gift of a new friend this holiday season. It just means you need to get creative about it. Swipe through to see some options we recommend instead!

25 days.

That is how long you have until New Year's Eve Fireworks.

If you have a sound sensitive dog, or a dog fearful of fireworks, NOW is the time to call your vet. Your veterinarian may be able to prescribe or recommend medication that will help reduce your dog's stress during the fireworks. Get in to see them now, before it's too late!

Communication and connection, not obedience.

At You and Your Dog Training & Services we specialize in communication training and behavior modification, with emphasis on reliable recalls and energy outlets to curb destructive behavior. We continually focus our work on strengthening the bond between dogs and their people. This is accomplished by teaching the basics of dog behavior with attention to animal behavior as a whole, using engaging, playful and fun methods and tools. Success is accomplished through connection and communication. Providing people with the skill-set to communicate and interact with their dogs with respect for balance and enriching coexistence is what You and Your Dog Training is all about.
