Nothing a long line walk with your best friend can’t fix ❤️

For reactive dogs, peace and space matter — and cemeteries offer both. Take it from --

"Believe it or not a cemetery is a really great place to bring your reactive dog

If you do - It's super important that you remain respectful in the space and also ensure that it is a dog friendly cemetery.

They're great for a few reasons:

There are clear easy to follow paths, relatively easy to see a trigger (if any, not a lot of people frequent), low distraction environment to practice skills like engagement or walking, to name a few

✨ follow for more reactive dog content ✨"

Have you switched to a longer leash yet?

We talk a lot about long lines here. 20 foot, 30 foot, or even longer lines can be great tools for giving your dog lots of freedom while keeping them safe. But even adding a few feet to your leash for everyday walks can make a huge difference. I switched over to using a 10 foot leash for neighborhood walks a couple of years ago, and have never looked back. A longer leash can reduce frustration, allow for more choice and freedom of movement for your dog, and make walks way more enjoyable for everyone.

What's your preferred leash length for neighborhood walks?

Please please pleeeeease let your dog sniff on walks!

It’s so beneficial and enriching for them, and it costs us nothing. Sniffing is the main way that dogs gather information about their environment and it’s a great brain workout (which means a more relaxed and contented companion post-walk). IMHO, it’s one of the easiest and most impactful things we can do to improve our dogs’ quality of life.

Do you let your dog sniff to their heart’s content on walks? And does it make you want to die a little bit inside when you see a dog get pulled away from a high quality sniff?!!
