We can't all be unbothered queens like this guy!

💥We recommend keeping your dog at home and inside, safe and secure!

💥find a space at home that will dampen the sound to hang

💥turn up that TV or radio!

💥give your dog a comforting space with all their favorite things

💥exercise and train early to avoid being caught in the celebrations

HAPPY 4TH FRIENDS ❤️🤍💙

Heat safety is a huge topic right now, but what about other summer fun safety like eye protection?!

-> You wear sunglasses, right? So why shouldn't our dogs?

are UVA and UVB protective.

UV protection is important to prevent sun related ocular diseases like pannus!

Doggles are so much more the cool factor! 😎

Free shaping can be so funny! The goal is to allow the dog to think for themselves and offer the behavior you're looking for.

In this case, we help by offering a cot bed to interact with, with the end goal being a place command.

This is the early basics of that, and this girl is offering behaviors to see what's going to get her paid.

It started with any interaction with the cot, then we build duration and see if she offers a sit and then eventually a down.

Want more tips on free shaping?! Drop a ❤️
