ZOE, the Shih Tzu is here with her family members ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ
Zoe booked herself some Premium Boarding with lots of snuggles, couch time and enrichment activities.

Her sister MADDIE is already here since 2 weeks to get quality training in, to build confidence and build foundations for the future. ๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰

Last but not least welcome to HENRY ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿถ
Heโ€™ll also get a brush up on training while here. He is already very confident and loves to work but doesnโ€™t know what boundaries are ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…

Itโ€™ll be such a fun time with those pups ๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰

The snow is finally melting and we are off to a great end of the week.

KONA the German Shepherd is doing very good when it comes to her impulse control, being non-reactive and following commands with distractions. ๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰

BEAU is one of our private training clients. ๐Ÿ•โ€๐Ÿฆบ
He has improved so much from when we started until now.
He walks great on leash, his impulse control training is improving daily and he is now able to be off leash to play, fetch and hang out since his recall is becoming fantastic, even with distractions. ๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿถ๐ŸŽ‰

Now we are fine tuning his skills and watch him perform like a rock star ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿคฉ

Great job everyone and Happy Training ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ

๐Ÿพโœจ **Creating Happy Spaces: Dogs, Kids, and Boundaries!** ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿ‘ถ

As much as we love the adorable bond between our furry friends and little ones, itโ€™s essential to remember that dogs also need their own space! ๐Ÿก๐Ÿ’– The importance of giving our dogs boundaries is crucial for their well-being and for fostering a safe environment for everyone.

Why is space important? Giving dogs the opportunity to escape to their own safe spot helps prevent stress and promotes a happier, more relaxed pup. Dogs, like us, can feel overwhelmed, especially when there's a lot of activity around themโ€”like when toddlers are zooming around! ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿ’จ

**Signs of stress to look out for in your dog:**
- Panting or excessive drooling
- Yawning or lip licking
- Ears pinned back or a tucked tail
- Finding a hiding spot
- Growling or snapping

Meet our star example, Bowser! ๐Ÿถโค๏ธ His owner made a genius decision by putting up gates around his dog bed, ensuring Bowser has a cozy retreat away from the toddlerโ€™s boundless energy. This not only keeps Bowser safe but also teaches kids the importance of respecting a dogโ€™s space.

By using gates, Bowser can still be part of the family fun while having a peaceful place to recharge. Itโ€™s all about creating a harmonious household where both dogs and kids can thrive! ๐ŸŒŸ

Letโ€™s celebrate boundaries and ensure our pups can relax, which helps them remain joyful and affectionate companions! How do you promote safe interactions between your dogs and kids? Share your tips below! ๐Ÿ—จ๏ธ๐Ÿ‘‡

German Shepherd LIONESS graduated today from our โ€œGood Dogโ€ Board & Train program with flying colors. ๐Ÿ†๐Ÿ†๐Ÿ†

She was under the professional guidance of Jรผrgen, who is an excellent dog trainer and IPO competitor from Germany. ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ช๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ•

Lioness now walks nicely on a lose leash with dogs, people and other stimuli present, follows verbal commands, can perform an extended stay anywhere (parks, stores, downtown shopping area or malls) and came overall a long way ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿ™Œ

But as everyone knows: TRAINING DIES NOT END HEREโ€ผ๏ธ

We will be back next week to see how the transitioning is going and to give her owner more hands on instructions to keep up her training journey. ๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿ•๐Ÿ–คโ˜บ๏ธ

She the perfect pup (seriously) but sometimes forgets her hearing when the smells are too good out and about ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…

**๐Ÿšจ Important Pet Safety Notice: Xylitol Alert! ๐Ÿšจ**

Attention all pet owners! We wanted to raise awareness about a common sugar substitute that can be highly dangerous to our furry friendsโ€”**Xylitol**, often labeled as **Birch Sugar**.๐Ÿ›‘

**What is Xylitol?**
Xylitol is a sugar alcohol commonly used in various products due to its sweetness without the calories of sugar. However, it is important to note that it is extremely toxic to dogs, leading to severe health issues, including a rapid insulin release that can cause hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), seizures, liver failure, or even death.

**Where is Xylitol Found?**
You'll be surprised at how many products contain Xylitol. It is often found in:

- Sugar-free chewing gum
- Sugar-free candies and mints
- Dental care products (toothpaste, mouthwash)
- Certain baked goods (like sugar-free cookies and cakes)
- Some peanut butter brands (check the labels!)
- Nutritional bars and snacks
- Ice creams and desserts labeled as sugar-free

**How to Avoid Xylitol?**
1. **Read Labels Carefully**: Always check the ingredient list for Xylitol or Birch Sugar on food products, especially those that say "sugar-free" or "low-calorie."
2. **Choose Dog-Safe Treats**: If you're looking for treats for your pets, make sure they are specifically labeled as safe for dogs. Stick to known brands with clear ingredient lists.
3. **Educate Family & Friends**: Make sure everyone in your household and your pet-sitters are aware of the dangers of Xylitol.
4. **Store Products Safely**: Keep all products containing Xylitol out of your petโ€™s reach. Be mindful of where you store items like candies, gum, and personal care products.

**What to Do in Case of Ingestion?**
If you suspect your dog has ingested Xylitol, contact your veterinarian or an emergency pet poison helpline immediately. Time is of the essence!

**Spread the Word!**
Share this post to help protect our beloved pets from the dangers of Xylitol. Awareness is key to keeping our furry friends safe! ๐Ÿพโค๏ธ

๐Ÿพโœจ Exciting day for our Service Dog in Training, HEIDI! ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’– She had her vet visit today and absolutely smashed it! ๐Ÿฅณ๐Ÿ’‰ She got her last set of shots, dropped off a stool sample, and we even hooked her up with her heartworm, tick, and flea preventatives! ๐Ÿฆ ๐Ÿ• Heidi truly showed off her amazing temperament throughout the visit.

A HUGE shoutout to our wonderful breeder, **vom Zwillingshaus German Shepherds**! ๐Ÿ†๐Ÿพ The entire litter is exceptional, boasting stellar nerves and temperament from health-tested parents! ๐ŸŒŸ๐Ÿ’ช We're so proud of our girl!

๐Ÿ“Œ On todayโ€™s agenda:
proofing and environment training with REDFORD, LIONESS, AGNES & LUCA. ๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰

KONA the German Shepherd was also with us but she is not there yet to be around sweet girl Asta, who belongs to the stables and will happily greet everyone walking through โ€œherโ€ doors โ˜บ๏ธโ˜บ๏ธโ˜บ๏ธ

Off we go to the next adventure - donโ€™t forget TRAINING NEVER ENDS ๐Ÿ•โ€๐Ÿฆบโ˜บ๏ธ๐Ÿ•๐Ÿ™Œ๐ŸŽ‰

โ‰๏ธWHAT IS PROOFING?
Proofing in dog training refers to the process of ensuring that a dog reliably performs a specific behavior or command in a variety of contexts and environments, under different levels of distraction, and with varying levels of difficulty. The goal of proofing is to make the behavior robust and consistent, so the dog can respond appropriately regardless of the circumstances.

๐Ÿ“Here are some key aspects of proofing:

1. **Context Diversification**: Training the dog to understand that the command should be obeyed in different places, such as at home, in the park, or during social outings.

2. **Distraction Management**: Gradually introducing distractions during training sessions, such as other people, animals, noises, or temptations to ensure the dog can focus on the command regardless of what's happening around them.

3. **Increasing Difficulty**: Start with simple commands in low-distraction settings and progressively increase the complexity, such as performing the command while walking in a crowded area or when food is present.

4. **Generalization**: Helping the dog learn that a command applies not just in specific training sessions but in everyday life situations. For example, understanding that โ€œsitโ€ means the same everywhere, whether itโ€™s at home or in a busy park.

5. **Consistency and Repetition**: Regular practice of the behavior across various situations to reinforce learning and ensure the dog retains the skills over time.

By proofing a dog's trained behaviors, handlers can help ensure that the dog remains well-behaved and responsive under different circumstances, increasing the reliability of the training.๐Ÿ•๐Ÿ•โ€๐Ÿฆบ๐Ÿ–ค

Kona has shown some challenging behaviors, which include aggression towards dogs, people, cars, and even that sneaky vacuum cleaner! ๐Ÿ•๐Ÿš—๐Ÿงน But here's the thing: training an aggressive dog is a journey that requires time, patience, and a variety of approaches. ๐Ÿ”„โŒ›๏ธ

We're excited to help Kona learn to manage her reactions and discover that the world can be a safe and pleasant place! ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ’–

Additionally, for her safety and the safety of others, we will be muzzle training her. ๐Ÿฆด๐Ÿ•
Muzzle training is a responsible step in ensuring that we can manage her environment better, as we all know you can never fully control your surroundings! ๐Ÿ™Œโœจ
