"🐾 Resource guarding toys is a very common behavior in our furry friends. Remember, it's crucial to address this issue with patience and positive reinforcement. 🎾🦴It is very important that you do not punish them for this behavior, but rather, encourage trust, create a safe environment, and seek professional guidance if needed.
At Dirty Dog, we are all about promoting harmony and happy playtime for our pups! 🐾❤️
Sammy here LOVES his toys and can be very possessive of them. Giving him a private space to enjoy his toys - away from other dogs - actually increases his enjoyment of them in a relaxed setting where he doesn’t feel the threat of having his things taken away. Now we can help him process that negative feeling and begin the work of willingly handing things to his people, and hopefully, other dogs eventually without feeling the stress of “losing” them.

🌟 Let's talk about the importance of dog enrichment activities! 🌟
🐾 We all know our furry friends are not just pets, they are family! And just like us, they need mental stimulation and engagement to lead a happy and fulfilled life. That's where dog enrichment activities come into play! 🧠🌈
🏞️ Regular walks are great, but let's take it a step further! 🐾 Engaging our dogs in various enrichment activities helps sharpen their cognitive skills, prevents boredom, and reduces potential destructive behaviors. It's a win-win for everyone involved! 🎉
🎾 From puzzle toys to hide-and-seek games, there are countless ways to keep our pups' minds active and entertained. These activities not only provide a mental workout but also strengthen the bond between us and our furry companions. 💙
🍗 Don't forget about treat-dispensing toys! They not only provide tasty rewards but also encourage problem-solving and keep those tails wagging with excitement. 🐕🌟
🏆 So, let's make it a priority to incorporate more enrichment activities into our dogs' lives. Whether it's teaching them new tricks, introducing interactive toys, or exploring new places together, let's keep their minds sharp and their hearts happy! 💕
🐾 Share your favorite dog enrichment activities in the comments below! Let's inspire each other to make our four-legged friends' lives even more enriching and joyful! 🐶💫

YUCCA MULTI PURPOSE✨️

Yucca's ability to create its own natural cortisone aids in the relief of hotspots/itching/scratching dermatitis and seborrhea. Yucca's properties also help in the relief of bacterial and fungal related problems. Optical brightness adds new life and luster to coats. Multi-purpose shampoo leaves coat with long-lasting mild scent.
Safe for use on puppies 🐶 and kitties 😸.

Bennett does not like the blow dryer but with some patience we got it done and may have even become best furever friends. 💖

Baxter was a rockstar today for training!
This is a small clip of our training session. Here we are continuing what we've worked on prior to help fix positioning and response time for his basic obedience as well as being more aware of his body. Baxters main struggles are focus and impulse control, but he is motivated and uber smart. We've made big progress in just a few sessions, for now we are going to clean it up and then focus on expanding on his understanding of where he should be.
You might question why I'm having him stand for his front and that's because I am trying to fix the behavior- he wanted to sit 2-3 feet away from me during a front. When we teach a recall or a front we need them to come ALL the way to us, especially in an emergency situation! so we will add the sit at front behavior after we've perfected that he should come ALL the way every time. Great job Baxter!

We are so proud of Chase!! Chase came to us very frightened by the whole grooming process-- trying to bite and fighting everything (no exaggeration!!!). His pet parent committed to getting him on a routine schedule for bathing, giving us the opportunity to work Chase thru these behavioral challenges during grooming, letting us earn his trust, and getting him accustomed to the process. This is Chase today with our bather, Kaylee! What a pro! 🐾❤️

Lucy Lou is a very special baby! Lucy was born with an impairment in her back legs. After Lots of time at the vet, her mom brought her to us to help build her muscles while getting to socialize& make friends.
Water Therapy is so good for dogs with all different kinds of health issues. It is low pressure, low impact, and resistance for her! It also helps her be more aware of her legs and slow down her movements to walk. Thus improving her movement and muscle memory outside of water too!

Foxy is a total Rockstar for nail trims!
Even if your pup doesn't do well for you at home - or you're too fearful of hurting them by doing it yourself - it is still VERY important they get them done every 2 to 3 weeks to keep the nail bed short and prevent breakage, arthritis of the feet/knee/hocks/hips! Dogs who have overgrown toenails walk funny to compensate and it can permanently disrupt their Joints. It's a very serious issue that needs to be taken seriously.
Thank you so much Foxy for being ✨SUCH✨ A GOOD GIRL for your nail trim🥰 and for being a star in our video!
On another note, Go follow our new TikTok account! Lots of educational and fun videos planned for the upcoming weeks! 🙏😉
