THIS! This podcast is 100% worth a listen. I'm so grateful for trainers like these helping spread the message of R+ training! 😁

I urge you to support the abolition of ear and tail cropping for solely aesthetic purposes related to breed standards, as it is an unethical and unnecessary practice. I have signed this petition and encourage you to do the same! 🙏🏽

You can give countless animals like Mercy who have been harmed by ear cropping find the healing and happiness they deserve. (102664 signatures on petition)

You MUST LISTEN to this if you truly care about how your dog FEELS throughout their life! I absolutely love this podcast and these two trainers are my favorite inspirational dog advocacy leaders 🙌🏽👏🏽❤️🐕

This article was very enlightening and I for one am SO GLAD scientists are producing more studies like this!

Take home points;

All these dogs are much loved family pets living at home with their owners, yet the data suggests that the R– (Negative Reinforcement) group of dogs have formed an aversive association with the presence of their owners at some level, as shown in the ‘walking on lead’ test.

For the ‘sit’ command the data suggests that the R– group have also developed an aversive association with the ‘sit’ command itself, it has become a secondary R–, as shown by the additional stress-related behaviours exhibited by these dogs.

As every good dog trainer knows, good eye contact and attention to the trainer is the cornerstone of effective training and is also a good indicator of the dog’s relationship with, and trust of the trainer/owner; there are many studies that confirm this.

‘Protect’, ‘Teach’, ‘Love’. Words that encapsulate what we all want for our dogs. Yet, these words are used by one of the largest manufacturers of electronic training devices. We can only guess that their use has been carefully chosen in order to tap into a most primal fear – losing our dog. The implication here is that the use of such devices facilitate the duty of all responsible and loving dog owners, and failing in this duty is an act of neglect. What is not mentioned anywhere in e-collar manufacturers literature is that fear conditioning is not like any other kind of learning, it uses different neural pathways and invokes different memory systems that often have life-long, negative effects on a dog’s wellbeing. The evidence for this is unequivocally overwhelming.

Please take a minute to read and share to spread the positivity!

Steve Dale is one of the leading dog behavior consultants in Chicago and has a show on WGN radio! Please follow his "Petcast" for tons of helpful pet care updates on his website. This article even taught me something new!!!

Xylitol is a deadly ingredient common in sugar-free products such as peanut butter. Please please please don't give them anything with this ingredient and now they're calling it a different name which is confusing so please be aware!

Beware Xylitol is toxic and too often deadly once dogs ingest, and it's now sometimes labeled as Birch Sugar

Luna gives the best cuddles 🐈😻 she DEMANDS attention before I leave post walking her doggo sister Moxie. Because of this, I always end up staying longer than the visit length...always worth it!!! 🥰

Just some happy doggos enjoying the first snow of the season today! ❄️🤍🐕 Don't forget to use protective paw wax or booties when there's ice and/or salt 🐾 #firstsnow #dogwalkerlife #doggosbeingdoggos

Double the ponytail = double the cuteness-and sass!! Actually she's an angel 😇😍 love yah Maggie! 💕 #yorkiesofinstagram #dogwalkerlife

Mandatory photo dump of all my recent favs 🥰 Happy Sunday! 😎 Can't believe summer's almost over already 🥲 Stores ALREADY have Halloween decor for sale! Who else is sad but also SO ready for fall? #dogwalkerlife #dogtraining #summer2024🌴☀️

Ruger's preferred morning routine generally includes a brief potty walk, then pulling back towards home, and spending his last few minutes rolling in the backyard grass with his favorite fish toy 🥰🐟🐕 He's so patient as I make sure his backyard is safe! #dogtraining #doggosbeingdoggos #happyrolling

What a lovely summer it's been so far 😎💕🐶 #dogwalkerlife #summer2024🌴☀️ #hotdogsummer #doggosbeingdoggos

Same bro, same 😴☔ #rainydays #doggosdoingthings #sleepyhead

It's getting warmer 🥵 outside, summer's just around the corner! Did you know the only way dogs can sweat are through their paws? Please always make sure to watch out for signs of overheating and provide your pup with cool FRESH water everyday as well as a cool place to rest. Happy panting! 🐶💦👅 #dogwalkerlife #doggosbeingdoggos #hotdogsummer

Happy Adopt a Shelter Pet day! Meet our newest shelter doggo in training, Juniper ❣️ We've been working on her "Leave It" since she's a hardcore scavenger and she's already made so much progress! Her favorite activity is-surprise surprise, her treat filled snuffle mat post walkies! Great outlet for her to get out her urge to scavenge in a healthy and safe environment ☺️ Does your doggo also try to eat unsafe things they find outside? Try this! #adoptashelterpet #dogtraining #labradorable

So this past weekend while at an after-party with my improv comedy team celebrating our last show of the semester, and this little cutie stole my heart ❤️ and made biscuits 🐾 out of it! 🥰 That ending was unexpected 🥲 #petsitterlife #partyanimals #fridgecat

Theo's one of the sweetest doggos I know! He always smiles when I first arrive and my heart instantly melts! 🫠💗 Here he is in his favorite napping chair 🥰 #pitbullmix #pitty #doggosbeingdoggos #dogwalkerlife

No matter what, he WILL find a way to lick your face 🐶💋 thanks for the kisses Pierre! 😅 Yay to cuddles and playtime during indoor quality time on cold rainy days! ☔🌧️ #kingcharlescavalierspaniel #dogwalkerlife #doggokisses

Say hello to our newest doggo, Nero! He LOVES 💗 his puzzle 🧩 activity toy for mental stimulation post walkies, especially with this wet cold snowy 🌨️ weather making him not want to be outside, SAME Nero! It's also great to encourage their natural instincts of foraging for food. This kind of mental stimulation can also help satiate a high scavenger drive if your pup eat things they're not supposed to while outside! 😊 #sh*tzumix #seniordoggo #canineenrichment

With every Tail there is an Origin...

Hi, my name is Theodora, owner and founder of Theo's Doggos. I began this career path with a strong passion for animals and providing them with the love and care they deserve. Born and raised Chicagoan, I've lived my whole life in the Irving Park Neighborhood and have owned and cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, various small rodents, birds, and fish. With many pet sitting gigs-that also added to my experience and knowledge of various animals, you can rest assured I'm very comfortable with all animals and that your pet will be in good, knowledgeable, loving hands. Team mates also learn from the best!

When I was young, I didn't watch the shows or read the books my friends did, instead I watched Animal Planet, read about various animals and how to care for them, watched pet training shows and educational programs, read the dog breed bible, and learned as much as I could about animals, specifically dogs since that was the pet I wanted the most. Finally when I was eight years old I got my first dog, a mini-dachshund named Brownie. After we had Brownie for 3 years we decided to get a puppy, another dachshund named Copper. Both dogs brought my family and home lot of love and joy. I trained them both and was the main caregiver for over ten years along with the help my of little sister. For some time I lived with roommates and cared for three cats, at once and they also brought plenty of joy and energy to my life! I have also taken care of many rabbits because my first bunny-her name was Banni, had babies I helped mommy raise them myself and found great forever homes for them all. I helped train every animal I lived with including litter box training my bunnies-yes they can be trained just like cats! All non-professional experiences aside, I've also taken online classes for various pet certification courses including pet nutrition, psychology, training, sitting., first aid, and animal CPR.

Rest assured your pets will always be as happy as they will be safe and sound!

Photography/videography started out as a hobby, but through years of hard work and dedication I've managed to turn it into a career. I’ve loved photographing animals ever since I can remember and I adore the feeling of capturing a moment in time, especially one that I know will be treasured forever. I see pet photography as a fun adventure and stimulating challenge since the subject is not easy to pose or stays still. Over time, pets usually end up loving the camera and they become models after realizing "photo-time" means treats and praise! Great if your pet has a fear of cameras being pointed at them so you can also take great pics of them more easily!
