Dale's Dog Training Academy LLC Dog Training and Behavior Modification Solutions for you and your family. Why is training so important?
(1)

Whether you and your dog simply need to brush up on some basic skills or you are starting from scratch with a new puppy, we can offer you a wide choice of training options. More dogs are euthanized every year due to behavior problems than for any other reason. This startling statistic shows that owners who do not train their dogs simply give up on them up out of frustration. Chewing, digging, urin

ating and defecating in the house, jumping up, nipping, all of these behaviors are solvable and manageable with good, consistent, positive training. The knowledge you will take home from our classes and private lessons will be invaluable to you and your dog throughout your lifetime together. You will learn how to communicate with your dog, how to make your dog understand what you want from him or her. We so often forget to reward good behavior and so easily focus on the bad. Through our training, you will learn that the positive approach is faster, easier and far more effective!

Rhubarb shares her happiness whenever we come home, whether were gone for a couple of hours or a couple of days. She usually brings her snakey-snake but if she can't find it, she'll grab whatever plush toy is near. So adorable. Does your dog do this?

Answers to some of the most common questions about our beloved dogs.

Answers to some of the most common questions about our beloved dogs.

Here are my answers:

1. Do dogs dream? Yes! Just like humans, dogs experience REM (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep, which is when dreams occur.

2. Why do dogs wag their tails? Tail wagging is a form of communication. It doesn’t always mean a dog is happy; it can indicate excitement, nervousness, or even agitation, depending on the speed, height, and direction of the wag. A loose, full-body wag usually signals friendliness.

3. Why do dogs have whiskers? Whiskers (vibrissae) help dogs detect subtle changes in their environment. They’re sensitive to touch, vibrations, and airflow, giving dogs spatial awareness, especially in low light. Never trim or pluck them, as they’re essential sensory tools.

4. Why do dogs chase their tails? Tail-chasing may signal anxiety or more commonly a medical issue like a compulsive disorder or pain.

5. Why is my dog’s nose wet? A wet nose helps dogs pick up scents more efficiently and moisture traps scent particles.

6. Why does my dog stare at me? Dogs stare for many reasons: to read your cues, bond with you, or sometimes because they want something (food, attention, a walk). Mutual gaze can even trigger the release of oxytocin, the bonding hormone, in both dogs and humans.

7. Why does my dog scoot their bum on the carpet? Scooting often indicates a**l gland discomfort, itching, or irritation. It can also be caused by parasites, allergies, or skin infections. It’s not just “funny”, if you see your dog scooting, a vet check is a good idea.

When it comes to our dogs, asking questions isn’t just important, it's essential. Curiosity helps us understand a dogs needs, spot red flags early, and build a relationship based on trust, empathy, and care. I love when people ask questions about dogs. More importantly there is no such thing as a stupid question.
