What’s a better way to spend a Monday than working with mans best friend?? Doggos Blitz & Moonie having a social session with a special guest- our toddler! 🫶🏼 Socializing your pets around other animals is just as important as socializing around people AND children. However, it is also SUPER important to teach your children not to pet or run up to dogs that they do not know ☝🏻💯#themoreyouknow #kevlark9academy #dogpeople #bestjobever #veteranowned #trainer #socialize #dog #doggo #blitz #moonie #toddlerinthemix #monday #today #staysafe #important #training #dogtraining

🐕 **Why Socializing and Training Your Dog is Essential** 🐾
Bringing a new dog into your home is exciting, but it also comes with responsibilities. One of the most important things you can do for your furry friend is to ensure they are well-socialized and properly trained. Here's why it matters:
🌟 **The Benefits of Socialization:**
- **Better Behavior**: Socialized dogs are more comfortable around new people, pets, and environments, reducing anxiety and aggressive behaviors.
- **Safer Interactions**: Well-socialized dogs are less likely to react negatively in unfamiliar situations, making them safer for you and others.
- **Happier Pets**: Dogs that regularly interact with other dogs and people are generally happier and more confident.
🎓 **The Power of Training:**
- **Enhanced Bond**: Training strengthens the bond between you and your dog, fostering mutual understanding and trust.
- **Safety First**: Basic commands like "sit," "stay," and "come" can prevent dangerous situations and keep your dog safe.
- **Good Manners**: Trained dogs are more pleasant to be around, making outings and visitors more enjoyable.
**Tips for Successful Socialization and Training:**
- **Start Early**: Begin socializing and training your dog as early as possible, but remember, it’s never too late to start.
- **Positive Reinforcement**: Use treats, praise, and affection to reward good behavior. Positive reinforcement is key to effective training.
- **Consistency is Key**: Be consistent with commands and routines to avoid confusion and reinforce learning.
- **Join a Class**: Consider enrolling in a dog training class to learn from professionals and expose your dog to new experiences.
🐾 **Remember**: A well-socialized and trained dog is not only a joy to be around but also leads a happier, more fulfilled life. Invest time in your furry friend's development, and you'll both reap the rewards!
Let's make the world a better place for our dogs, one training session at a time!
Having siblings trained together really does make us work harder as trainers and in training the dogs 💯 We went for a socialization session at Lowe's with Leo and Camila and it went pretty good! Surprisingly, the distraction for these pups is not other people, it’s each other 😅 Making them work in this kind of environment shows that they need to listen to commands even if you REALLY just wanna play! These doodles are doing wonderful and wet excited to keep everyone along for the process 🐾❤️ #kevlark9academy #dogpeople #doodles #socialization #brotherandsister #dogtrainerlife #bestjobever #doggos #greatday #dogs #saturday #lowes #justwanttoplay
