Does your dog wear a harness? A well-fitted harness is an excellent tool to begin working on a dog's leash walking skills and help to reduce pulling. However, depending on the style of harness, some types may interfere with the dog's movement and gait. Some veterinarians have reported an increase in dogs who have suffered injuries or chronic pain from these harnesses. If you run with your dog or enjoy long walks on a regular basis, you might want to consider a "Y" shaped harness that forms a "Y" across the dog's shoulder blades vs a chest-strap harness that has a single, horizontal strap across the chest. The photos show both types with the chest area highlighted. No matter what style you choose, make sure it fits your dog properly - snug enough to fit just two fingers under the straps and no chafing, especially behind the elbows.

Meet your dog's natural needs by giving him the opportunity to engage in behaviors that provide sensory stimulation (using his sense of smell), foraging and scavenging food. Watch Rocky enjoy sniffing this toy, forage the kibble by rolling the toy over, and then find and eat the scattered kibble. Offer your dog an enrichment activity at least once a day, and you might just notice calmer and more relaxed behavior.

Winter sniffaris are the best! During the winter months, and especially after a snowfall, try taking your dog to trails, parks, or open fields and let her sniff and meander. Using her nose to process the smells, along with the extra effort of running through the snow, will contribute to a tired and content pup when you return home. A 15 foot long line gives your dog some freedom to run and roam safely while being easy for you to gather up the slack. Sturdy hiking shoes or boots for you, provide stable (and warm) footing. Snow shoes work well too. Enjoy!

Did you know this month is Train Your Dog Month?
By teaching your dog the “basics” – sit, down, stay, wait, coming when called and walking on a loose leash, your dog can learn what behaviors are expected of him, you can enjoy the benefits of a well-mannered dog, and best of all, you and your dog will build a foundation of trust to build upon.
Check out The Association of Pet Dog Trainers resources on training tips for you and your dog. https://trainyourdogmonth.com/?fbclid=IwAR1BgXhHdoV0SdgcSzCEu7epSN5O9blLDADe1M-BpzMiSE_q4gDhFv9Yu8Q

Holidays can be stressful for our dogs. Even the most social dogs may find the many guests, loud noises, and change of routine overwhelming. You can help your dog this holiday season by following these simple suggestions.
• Prevent your dog from becoming over-excited when guests come into the house, which often results in unwanted jumping up, by having her behind a gate or on a leash. Once the guests are in and seated, then bring her out to say hello.
• If you are unable to actively supervise your guests (especially children), and their interactions with your dog, have her in a quiet room or crate with a yummy stuffed chew toy such as a Kong or Toppl.
• If your dog is a “door-dasher” or “counter-surfer”, prevent a potentially bad outcome by having her in a safe space (room with door closed, behind a gate, or in a crate).
• The best place for your dog during a holiday event at your house may be at a trusted relative or friend’s house. Make sure to have your dog spend some time there prior to your event.

Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year from Positive Interactions Dog Behavior and Training!
