šŸ‡ŗšŸ‡øFourth of July šŸ‡ŗšŸ‡ø is around the corner! Every year, we and 1 million other pet care professionals share the same message. If by this time of year, you have not acclimated your dog to loud noises and developed good obedience, solid relaxation techniques, youā€™re not gonna do it in the next seven daysšŸ˜µā€šŸ’«.

šŸ«”Here is what you CAN do before the scariest night of the year arrives to help your pet thru it AND keep them safeā€¦
šŸŽ‰ refill your pets anxiety medication OR pick up a new one from your trusted vet.
šŸŽ‰ Make sure your dog has a WELL fitted collar WITH his or her ID tags securely attached
šŸŽ‰UPDATE YOUR MICROCHIP INFORMATION. Your pets chip is NOT a gps tracker and does NO good if it isnā€™t registered to you or at all.
šŸŽ‰Stock up on your pups favorite chewies and puzzle toys including yak sticks, bully sticks, kongs, etc
šŸŽ‰Make sure you have a secure place for your dog such as a crate, bathroom or secure bedroom.
We HIGHLY recommend EVERY dog regardless of age be reliably kennel trained (meaning they can relax when you or others are at home and activities are going on) so they have a safe, secure space during stressful periods.
šŸ˜”DO NOT take your dog out to potty OFF LEASH. Millions are lost every year from ā€œsecureā€ yards when startled by fireworks.
šŸ˜”DO NOT allow well meaning guests access to your dog during festivities. It takes one second for a door to not latch completely, a gate to be cracked for a dog to be lost.

Multi dog households function smoother with strong obedience and leadership. This eliminates friction between pack members and allows everyone to know where they fit.

How sweet is training student and Paulina and Kentā€™s houseguest Cranberry?!

She is getting the deluxe experience getting to LIVE with them while in her program. She is not only learning manners, but real time application!

This sweet girl has mastered all her obedience work on and off leash,made friends with cats, stopped trying to eat the roomba and vaccum and even learned to come when called from the horse. Her mama will have a dreamy girl pop to enjoy when she gets back home!

We get calls OFTEN about child and dog interactions and unfortunately bites.

SO much heartache can be prevented thru some very simple and healthy boundaries. Your dog has to have a way out and I promise you, kiddos, even little guys, can learn to be respectful of the dog and their space. Even the sweetest, most tolerant dogs can and will bite.

Let's talk about this photo. It's cute, except it's not. I see a dog who cannot get up without telling the child to get off. How do you think a dog is going to do that?

The 7 Golden Toddler Dog Rules:
#1: If a dog walks away from you, you DO NOT FOLLOW.
#2: Always leave room for the dog to walk away from you.
---that right there is 90+% of dog bites eliminated---
#3: We do not climb on the dog.
#4: We do not grab or pull on the dog.
#5: We do not hit or throw anything at the dog.
#6: We do not touch the dog's food.
#7: We do not go into the dog's kennel.

I promise these are not overly difficult concepts for littles, nor will they rob a kid of their bond with the family dog. It will deepen that bond, while keeping everyone safe.

"Oh, it looks like Moose is walking away from you. She is saying she wants a break. Let's play with this instead!"

"It's Moose's dinner time! Let's give her space to enjoy her yummies."

"That is Moose's room(kennel) and only she is allowed to go in there."

"If Moose wanted a break, could she walk away from you right now? No she really couldn't. Let's move away from the play house. You can keep playing but now she can leave when she wants a break."

In conclusion, ***parent your child or your dog will do it for you, and you will not like how they do it.***

Board and train Wyatt starting hump day with a walk to get those steps in!

Starting the day with structure, sets the tone for good behavior the rest of the day; Plus itā€™s going to be a scorcher later and no one wants to walk in that.
