- Socialization is not about play dates. While play dates can be a fun way for puppies to socialize, they are not a substitute for real-world socialization. Play dates should be supervised and created with other well-socialized and vaccinated dogs. But they should not be the only way your puppy interacts with other dogs.
- Start early. The earlier you socialize your puppy, the easier it will be for them to learn how to coexist calmly around other dogs and people.
- Expose your puppy to a variety of people, animals, sounds, textures, objects, and environments. Socialization includes getting your puppy used to all sorts of experiences like other people’s homes, pet friendly stores, parks, different neighborhoods, and more! The options are endless, but socialization should always include people of all ages, sizes, and ethnicities, as well as other dogs of all sizes and breeds.
- Make sure all interactions are positive. If your puppy has a negative experience with another dog or person, it will be more likely to be fearful or aggressive in the future. We recommend allowing your puppy to observe other dogs or people from a distance, rather than forcing them to interact with others. Always bring their favorite treats along with you to make interactions even more positive!
- Never force your puppy to interact with other dogs or people. If your puppy is showing signs of fear or anxiety, let them retreat. Create more distance between yourselves and the other individual if this occurs.
- Be patient. Socialization takes time and patience. Don't get discouraged if your puppy doesn't immediately warm up to everyone they meet.
- Socialization is a lifelong process. Even adult dogs need to be socialized on a regular basis. Make sure to continue to expose your dog to new people, animals, and experiences throughout their life.

1️⃣ Water Day: Take your dog to a dog-friendly beach, lake, or river for a day of sun, sand, and splashing in the water. Go paddleboarding, tubing, or swimming--the options are endless! Don't forget to pack plenty of water, shade, and sunscreen for both of you.
2️⃣ Hiking Adventure: Explore a dog-friendly hiking trail or nature reserve together. Let your dog lead the way as you discover new sights, sounds, and smells along the way.
3️⃣ Picnic in the Park: Pack a picnic basket with dog-friendly treats and head to a local park for a relaxing afternoon in the sun. Bring a frisbee or ball for some extra fun and exercise. Don’t forget your long line so your dog can feel like they’re running free without the worry of them running off or disturbing other people and dogs at the park!
4️⃣ Outdoor Movie Night: Does your dog watch the tv? Host a backyard movie night with your dog as the guest of honor. Set up a cozy blanket or dog bed, pop some popcorn (for you, not the dog!), and enjoy a dog-themed movie under the stars.
5️⃣ Pup Pool Party: Beat the heat with a backyard pool party for your dog and their furry friends. Set up kiddie pools filled with water toys and let the pups splash and play to their heart's content.
6️⃣ Doggy Ice Cream Social: Treat your pup to a cool and refreshing ice cream or frozen yogurt specially made for dogs. Invite some canine companions over for a doggy ice cream social in your backyard.

9️⃣ DIY Agility Course: Create a homemade agility course in your backyard using household items like hula hoops, cones, and tunnels. Challenge your dog to navigate the course and reward them with treats for their efforts.

Barking can be helpful in times where you'd like an alert if anything suspicious is going on outside, but what about those times when your dog is barking at you for attention or food? How can you stop barking in those specific situations?

With the help of a Newman's Certified Professional Dog Trainer, you can stop your dog's attention-seeking barking, and train them to do something else INSTEAD! One of our favorite ways to do this is to teach your pup an "automatic sit". And yes, we mean automatic! No commands or cues whatsoever. That way, your dog can ask for attention politely, instead of demanding attention from you by barking or jumping.

The secret sauce is in HOW our trainers teach this behavior. And if you're interested in your dog learning how to perform behaviors without you telling them, message us to schedule a training program!

15/05/2024

You wouldn’t automatically assume small breeds can be difficult to train, but they can be! Larger dogs usually fall into what’s called a “Working Breed”, and have been bred to train and work alongside humans for hundreds of years! This genetic advantage makes training easier since working breed dogs LOVE to train.

But what about smaller “lap dogs” who were bred to just be companion animals? Over our many years of experience training all kinds of dog breeds, we’ve noticed that smaller breeds tend to be labeled as “stubborn” or “hard headed”. Even though they make for great, friendly companions, they can seem difficult to train!

And that’s where we come in 🥳

We provide dog owners with creative and effective strategies to train any type of dog. Whether it's potty training, coming when called, or walking on a leash, we know to make any dog successful! Message us if you’re needing help with your stubborn pup!

If you think just a leash and collar are enough, you may be missing a few key players!

Without even realizing it, every walk you go on is a ✨training walk✨

Why?

Because whether you know it or not, you are reinforcing behavior. Aka- communicating to your dog what is allowed, what is not allowed, how to walk forward, when to pull, what to chase, etc. The list goes on!

When we have a close relationship to our dogs, they look to us for direction and support. They need to be told what stimuli (like other dogs, humans, vehicles) are good, and what behaviors earn rewards. For example, if your dog is scared of loud garbage trucks going by, you should be feeding them high-value treats every time they see a large garbage truck. This tells your dog that good things happen when these big trucks appear, which will help reduce their sensitivity to these trucks over time.

Another example would be rewarding your dog every time they choose to check in with you on walks. This behavior can increase engagement with you, and reducing pulling on the leash. But its your job to communicate those rules to your dog, via rewarding them for doing the behaviors you want to see!

➡️ Remember: if you aren't reinforcing behaviors, their environment is.
At Newman's Dog Training we provide our owners with TONS of strategies for training behaviors they want to see from their dogs. We also can do most of the hard work for you by working one-on-one with your dog throughout the week, setting them up to be successful for you in the future! Interested in signing up for a program?

Our Story

After graduating from the University of Arkansas, I moved to Kansas City to pursue a career as an animal trainer. I have now been training animals since 2008. I have worked with a range of different animals including California Sea Lions, African Elephants, Gorillas, Leopards, and Dogs. It is fascinating to watch and work with animal behavior; every animal is different and learns in different ways. Navigating each individual animal is well worth the task when they finally understand what you are wanting from them. The result is not only clarity for them, but such a success for the trainer.

My goal is to work with dogs and their owners to create healthy, fulfilling relationships. I use positive reinforcement training techniques which are based on praise and positive actions or rewards, rather than punishment, to teach your dog right from wrong. The most important thing is to know what motivates your dog, and use that motivator as a reward for the correct behavior. You can use treats, toys, physical affection, verbal praise or a combination of any of those can be used, to reward your dog for desirable behavior.

I am currently a professional member and Treasurer of HEARTland Positive Dog Training Alliance. Through this I am continuing my education and staying current on the latest scientific developments, learning theory and new training methods. I am consistently seeking out educational opportunities because I believe there is always more to learn. I was also an evaluator for Pets for Life for 2 years. I evaluated owners and their dogs to become therapy pets. This was such an amazing opportunity and has prepared me to help your dog become a therapy pet.
