Sweet Charlie is a 5 year old line backer of a dog that was so wild and reactive his mom had given up on walks. Charlie is also a wild door dasher. Here we are working on the leash being the environmental cue for his mat and staying sticky on the mat until released. #woofwisdom #R+dogtraining #evidencebased #forcefreedogtrainer #fearfreetrainer
It’s important to remember not only does behavior change take time, it actually takes practice as well. When we are addressing serious behaviors it is important to understand there are no quick-fixes or magic pills. Learning what the practice is and then actually doing the practice are two different things entirely. Make sure to set you and your dog up for success when engaging in training. #woofwisdom #ctc #kristineadamsctc #csat #dogtraining #trainyourdog #trainwithoutpain #dogsdeservescience
Dog training is a deeply scientific discipline. Drawing from behavioral psychology and learning theory, it involves understanding canine behavior, cognition, and emotions. By using evidence-based techniques, trainers can effectively shape and modify behaviors, leading to positive outcomes for dogs and their human companions. Make sure you know what you are getting when you hire a trainer. #dogbraintrust #dogsdeservebetter #dogsdeservescience #ctc #pcbc #csat #evidencebased #kristineadams #kristineadamsctc #dogtraining #choosewisely

When speaking to guardians about separation anxiety, the biggest heartbreak I suffer from is the majority of them feel that they did this to their dog. They’ve been told by popular culture, other trainers, friends, family, even the voice inside their head tells them that they are responsible for this panic. The part I love is that I get to explain to them that if we go to the evidence, it’s unclear as to where separation anxiety comes from. It is unclear how to prevent it from presenting in our dogs. Luckily, we do know that when our dogs are showing panic triggered by alone time, we do know how to help him. So let your dog sit on your lap, sleep in your bed, cuddle with you 24 seven, throw them a birthday party, let them eat at the table, let them walk out the doors in front of you, none of this caused panic for alone time issues. If your dog is showing panic when left alone, make sure to reach out to a professional that specializes in this area like myself. I am a certified separation anxiety trainer, and I have guided mini guardians and their dogs to comfortable alone time. Reach out if you’d like my support. www.mywoofwisdom.com #SA #alonetime #dogbraintrust #separationanxiety #separationanxietydog #separationanxietytraining #csat #woofwisdom #kristineadams #humane#evidencebased #trainyourdog

Dogs are considered “private property” under the law. This designation is problematic giving dogs little to no protection when they are being mistreated. Would you like your dog to be seen as a sentient being and granted fundamental rights? #woofwisdom #dogbraintrust #ctc #sentientbeings #dogsofinstagram #dogsneedrights #pcbc #animalwelfare #dogsjustwanttohavefundamentalrights
