Striving to uphold the 4H pledge, and being able to remain in good sportsmanship spirit is a way for us to become the people our dogs believe us to be.

🌟 Service K9 in Training Scooper is learning how to press an alarm button to wake his handler! This was his first session with button and he is doing PHENOMENAL! We also ran what the full task looks like for the first time and he nailed it right off the bat! Scooper will soon be able to sound an alarm if his handler does not give him an all clear command! 🌟

If you pay attention to enough dog training posts and comments, you’ll notice an interesting thing...
There’s a disturbing lack of care, support, or concern for the human.
You’ll find a never ending supply of the above for the dog, but the human...nah, they must have somehow deserved what they got, or are getting. They’re painted as ignorant, lazy, and in some strange way, the enemy.
It’s deeply telling that the humans writing the posts and comments, find it almost impossible to actually care about other humans.
Who cares about the owner who’s been pulled to the ground, drug across the pavement, had muscles pulled, bones broken, fingers crushed, assorted puncture wounds and nasty gashes?
And this doesn’t even touch on the emotional fallout. Loads of stress, anxiety, fear are terribly commonplace. Having to rearrange your life to be able to walk your dog at a safe time. Not being able to safely have friends or family over. Romantic relationships getting caught in the crossfire. Hoping you don’t come home to a broken crate, and a destroyed house.
Yep, I’m a dog lover. But I’m also a human lover. That’s why I train the way I do, and why I recommend the tools I do. I want the best for both species. If training is going to work, it needs to work. It needs to be straightforward enough, simple enough, and replicable enough...for regular, everyday owners. Owners who aren’t trainers, and who don’t have 10 hours a day to devote to working some incredibly intricate and nuanced training.
Too many trainers continue to focus on the dogs, the art, and themselves. And while there’s nothing wrong with being artful and deeply thoughtful about the training process, if it’s not something your clients can or will duplicate, it’s simply a waste of time, and an exercise in self-indulgence.
The true art, the true nuance, and the true magic of great training is figuring out how to make something that IS complex and nuanced, as simple as possible. Not dumb, not unfair, not crude, but simple and replicable.
If trainers can make a shift and learn to see the human as at least as important as the dog, and at least as deserving of empathy and care and kindness, they might just find a new focus on their methods, and their tool choices. They might just find themselves realizing that owners who are happy and comfortable with their dogs, tend to keep their dogs. They tend to enjoy their dogs. They tend to give their dogs much better lives.
And if dogs are your passion, then perhaps when you realize they only thrive when cared for properly, you might leave the fancy, the complex, the ego-fueled lingo, mindset, and techniques at the door, and instead find what actually works for those who’ve asked for their help.
And maybe even do it with kindness and care. Just a thought.
Study: Metal bowls have MORE dangerous bacteria⚠️ than plastic! 🤯
Pet food and water bowls can transmit bacteria, according research, and while 67% of owners use metal bowls, only about 1/3 of people wash the bowl after a meal, and some only dry wipe, which is how the bacteria party gets started 🤢. And that slippery film in the water bowl after 24 hours? That’s a brew of bacteria🦠 that can be transferred from your dog to you and your family.
The amount of moisture in the food also matters. Wet food (compared to dry) was associated with higher bacteria - and higher humidity levels are likely to create perfect conditions for bacterial growth, especially after coming in contact with dog saliva left in the bowl.
The Forever Dog LIFE book lays out the pro’s and con’s of different types of bowls. Here’s a glimpse of what you need to know:
Plastic🥣: Chemicals in plastic absorb through the skin and inhibit the synthesis of melanin, which can cause Plastic Dish Nasal Dermatitis that leaves your pet’s nose & lips, pink and irritated.
Ceramic:🫖 Hartpury scientists found the most harmful bacterial species (salmonella, E.coli and MRSA) were most frequently found in ceramic bowls because of people continuing to use them after fine cracks in the glaze become visible.
Stainless steel🥄: cheaper quality bowls have been involved in recalls due to heavy metal contamination. Be sure to buy high-quality bowls (18-gauge or 304 steel) from a trusted source.
Glass🥛: Durable, kitchen-friendly glass bowls made from 100% borosilicate glass (Pyrex) make great food and water bowls on the floor.
🧼No matter which type of bowl you use, the best thing you can do to protect you and your dog’s health is to wash your bowl after every meal with hot water and soap. In addition, at least once a week, run your bowls through the hot cycle in your dishwasher. You can also coat the bowl with hydrogen peroxide, wait five minutes, then wipe with a clean sponge and rinse.
For more info on bowls, Comment and we’ll message you the link to The Forever Dog LIFE book where in part one titled The Forever Kitchen and the section labelled “Food & Water Bowls", we cover how to choose the best chemical-free bowls🌱 that won’t leach contaminants⚠️ over time.

Great session with Athena today! She is just learning the basics to obedience! It’s never to late or early to start training!
🥰Gulliver learning the basics of place 🥰 Place is such a crucial command for owners to teach our canine counterparts. The command location is picked by the owner ( bed, blanket, spot on couch or even crate as Gulliver has) then held until the break command. Place gives your dog direction when company comes or it’s down time, it can even be life saving if something were to break or spill on the ground and you need to get your pet away to prevent injury! #trainyourdogthursday
