It's time for
and this favorite isn't a product or a book - it's a concept!
That concept is to have well managed introductions between dogs.
Here's why it is our favorite: When you're introducing dogs and you have professional help, it can make a big difference in whether or not the dogs have a healthy relationship.

Maggie and Archie are growing up together like best friends, brother and sister and perfect house mates !
All because of good managed introductions - being aware of doggy body language and starting with short play sessions.

You don't have to start a dog relationship in chaos.

Play isn’t just fun for dogs—it’s essential for their well-being and development. Did you know that a dog’s preferred play style often reflects behaviors they were originally bred for? In nature, one of the main functions of play is to help animals fine-tune skills they’ll need in life, with each type of play rewarding the animal for practicing key behaviors that support survival and success.

For example, herding dogs might enjoy stalking, chasing, and barking as they play, while retrievers often love to fetch. By engaging in these instinctual play behaviors, dogs are tapping into skills passed down through generations. What does your dog’s play style say about their history and instincts?

Howloween for Dogs Tip #4:
Your dog doesn't have to meet any trick or treaters. It isn't necessary. Their costumes may seem confusing or scary. Their approach to your house may make your dog feel unsafe.
Your dog does not have to meet the strangers. Keep your dog feeling safe.

The most important thing is for you to keep your dog feeling safe. Halloween is a tricky day for dogs.

Maybe you have to put a bowl of candy on the doorstep.

Maybe you have to disconnect the doorbell for the day.

Maybe your dog goes in a calming room with their favorite enrichment.

Make a plan ahead of time.
