Happy National Mutt Day!

At SIT, half of our dogs are currently rescues, and we couldn't be happier about it. Unfortunately, our local humane society will be closing its doors and needs your help. Please reach out to them and see if you can adopt or rescue an animal or two. These pets have limited time through no fault of their own. Bibble was our latest rescue from them, and he is doing amazingly. Thank you for what you do.

The yellow markers are a fantastic way to let others know she needs some extra room.

Respecting their space helps keep them comfortable and happy on walks!

I get this question all the time from parents:

"My dog growls at my kids. How do I stop this?"

Instead of asking how to stop the growl, ask how to STOP THE REASON the dog is growling in the first place.

For example, If your kids are too close, ask them to back up and invite the dog to them instead.

Parenting kids and dogs at the same time is hard.

Reach out if you are overwhelmed as a parent or as a dog pro without lots of kid experience. You are not alone - I can help.

This might surprise you, but I think teaching a dog to sit is one of the the skills your dog really doesn't need. Now hold on, hear me out before you hate me. It might be convenient but it's not essential. It's not a life or death skill, like leave it or recall might be. And in most contexts when owners tend to use sit, we could easily swap out stand instead.

Sit is such an overused, under-rewarded skill. People ask their dog to sit, for no real reason, far too often. Why does your dog need to sit to get a treat? Do you perform a "trick" every time you go to the cookie jar for a snack or every time before your partner shows you affection? Read more in this week's post.
