Teach your dogs to make good decisions and offer behaviour we like. With many common distractions, exhibiting self-control and making better choices
Teaching your dog to focus on you is crucial. It builds a strong connection and makes learning easier for both of you. Start with short sessions, rewarding attention with treats or praise. #mightydogacademy #dogtraining
My dog:”Zoomies who? Agility is my jam! I get to run, jump, tunnel, and weave – all while chasing after my favorite human instead of chewing on furniture or digging the garden.”

Rewards are not just food treats, toys or praises. It can be real life rewards which are activities or things that your dog finds rewarding and fun. For this dog, it's the cue to go swim in the water.
There are just so soo sooo many lessons that we can learn from dogs and one of it is their unwavering spirit. Love this dog's enthusiasm and the carer's devotion to give him a second life.
Walking your dogs is one of the most calming and stress reducing activity not just for the dog, but also the human.

It's hiking day with our dogs. Join us for hiking every fortnight. It's a great way for dogs to spend their energy and mental enrichment for your dogs.
Thanks Petz-A-Mania for the invitation to give an educational talk to the public on the importance of socialization in dogs to prevent canine behavioral issues.

So impressed by this young girl handling this Jack Russell at the dog show today. No industry can survive without any young blood coming into it.

#foodaggression
This dog had food aggression before training. We will be using desensitization combined with counter conditioning. Follow us on how to see the results after training.
What to do when your dogs are afraid of thunderstorms/fireworks?
Step 1: train dog to be calm and relaxed without thunder
Step 2: give your dog a safe place to sleep and train them to love it. I used a crate for this dog.
Step 3: train dog to be calm and relaxed in their safe place
Step 4: take the opportunity to train dog without thunder, during the rain
Here in the video, I am taking the opportunity to train this dog before a thunderstorm by pairing the rain ans later on, thunder sound with treats. And when the dog is calm, she is rewarded with treats. As time goes by, she even settled down and relaxed in the crate.
This process is called desensitisation where you gradually expose your dog to things they are scared of, one step at a time. When the dog isn't scared anymore, then only we move on gradually to the next step/intensity level.
Many people ask how do we feed all our dogs at the same time without them fighting.
Firstly, each of our dogs know where their "place" is. They have to stay at their "place" before and during their feeding time.
Once the bowls are placed at their "place", they will have to wait. This teaches them impulse control. They can only dig in upon the "OK" cue.
Secondly, the fast eaters will eat from a slow feeding bowl. This ensures all dogs finish their food about the same time and prevents the greedy ones from eating from another dog's bowl. It also prevents them from choking on their food from eating too fast.
