Do you have a nervous dog?

This was my second visit to their home and they experience lots of barking and some lunging at times with their dog.

During my first visit it took their dog about 20 minutes to settle down. This go around it took about 4 minutes so they are making some serious headway.

By using something like my jacket that has a ton of scent on it, I’m encouraging her to use her nose to come curious of me. This won’t make us besties by any means.

I’m just looking for progress.

And I truly LOVE working with these types of dogs. It’s so rewarding so see them settle, become curious, and become more accustomed to something that makes them more comfortable.

Over the last 18+ years, the biggest thing I’ve learned is this:
most dog owners don’t need more commands — they need understanding.

The Behavior Lab is a weekly classroom where I teach you how to read behavior, spot patterns early, and make better decisions with your dog in real time.

Each week is a different subject.
Some weeks we teach concepts.
Some weeks we break down real videos.
Some weeks we answer questions that actually matter.

This isn’t a course.
It’s not a one-size-fits-all program.

It’s ongoing coaching, real discussion, and practical clarity.

Enrollment is now open.

These moments tell you EVERYTHING about your dog’s state of mind — but most people don’t see it.

This is the kind of behavior breakdown I’ll be teaching every week inside The Behavior Lab.

If you want:
• deeper understanding
• weekly guidance
• case breakdowns
• and clear explanations that actually click…

Comment “LAB” below and I’ll send you the waitlist link.

Enrollment for the waitlist opens Friday.
Spots go first to the people on that list.

This is just a quick example of how you can learn from recording your dog during play sessions.

You will see patterns emerge and then your dog becomes predictable.

We spent about 10 minutes on this one video while I broke down the body language of each dog.

I’ll be spending time focusing on these types of videos in my NEW Behavior Lab on top of other subjects which I’ve already lined up for the next 7 months.

The lab is designed to improve your skills as a dog handler, owner, and provider.

This is for anyone from shelter volunteers to every day dog owners and even trainers.

Understanding patterns is key.

It’s what I teach.

If you’re focused on “correcting” a behavior you’re too late, you’ve missed the signals.

Understanding Patterns will be one of the subjects I will cover in my Behavior Lab. Link in Bio.

Body language videos like these teach every day dog owners the importance of reading your own dog.

They help us understand dogs beyond the surface level of just fun and excitement or scared and nervous.

I absolutely LOVE going over these with my clients are the most popular videos in my Canines and Culture program.

Which is why I am going to have a “body language breakdown” week once a month in my new Behavior Lab.

The Behavior Lab is where I coach dog owners every single week.

Every Tuesday we take one behavior subject — arousal, thresholds, decision making etc., — and I break it down so you can actually understand your dog and change patterns at home.

If you want in, the waitlist is open now.

Comment “lab” if you want to be different from the Jones’ next door. I’ll send you an invite to my waitlist.

Think of this as a way to learn more about dogs that will help your everyday life with them.

Whether you’re a dog owner, work in a shelter or rescue, or are a breeder, this will be a valuable resource for you.

Comment “lab” and I will message you the invite to the wait list.

1st call is December 16th.

Does your dog refuse to move?

We’ve all seen the viral videos of owners carrying their dogs because they refuse to move.

The dog is in an “avoidance” state of mind for whatever reason. Using a technique like this can help you get your dog moving again.

And by getting your dog to move again, it will remove a tool from their tool box. Once they understand that “move” doesn’t work anymore, you probably won’t see it again.

Repetitions of Success

Most dog owners aren’t able to build confidence in their dogs because they believe that after only successful task of an activity, their dog has a full understanding of what is being asked.

Think about that for a second.

How crazy would it be to teach a 4 year old what 2+2 is and once they got it right, we assume they will know it for the rest of their lives. Or that we never need to keep working on it.

We assume that they will remember it for the rest of their lives.

This is why you need repetitions of success so your dog can get a full understanding of what you are asking. And because you are the one that helps build your dog’s confidence, you become more valuable to your dog.

And that’s never a bad thing.

Do you feel your dog needs more confidence? Do you want to become more valuable to your dog?

If you’re dog isn’t listening to you it might be because of 1 (or all) of these reasons.

1. You don’t follow though and you have to repeat your commands.

2. Your dog is the decision maker in the house. Yup, you live in his/her world and not the other way around.

3. Your emotions make it so your dog views you as unstable. If you aren’t chill when you want your dog to be chill, you won’t get chill. If you’re angry, you are going to make it so your dog avoids you.

In my experience, owners of anxious dogs depend on exercise to get rid of the anxiety.

And although it’s important and we need to meet each dog’s energy needs, what they don’t realize is that regular intense exercise creates STAMINA!

And typically intense exercise is what’s used because a regular walk doesn’t seem to get rid of the exercise.

For me, I want a regular dose of structured energy outlets, appropriate play, and teaching the dog how to be calm within the home.

If we can’t get rid of anxiety inside the home, then we as sure won’t get rid of it outside the home.

I’m launching The Behavior Lab — a weekly coaching space where I break down dog behavior in real time.

Every week we focus on a different subject, everything that actually changes behavior.

You get one live class each week, replays, and a place to ask your questions so you finally understand what’s going on with your dog.

If you want early access, comment ‘lab’ and I’ll send you the link.
