Food for thought (and maybe a treat or two 🦴): Your dog doesn’t need you to be perfect—just present. Be their leader, their calm, and their confidence. The rest? That’s where the magic (and the muddy paw prints) happens. 🐕✨

🤔 “But my dog is just naturally hyper!”

Ever heard this before? Or maybe you’ve said it yourself?

Here’s the truth: No dog is meant to be “on” all the time. Even working breeds, sport dogs, and high-drive puppies need to learn the art of settling.

👆 Swipe to learn why the “always on” dog is a myth - and what we can do about it!

The secret? Every dog has the capacity for emotional regulation. They just need to learn how to access it.

Think about it:
• Working dogs can switch off after their job
• Sport dogs settle between training
• Even wolves rest most of their day

Your high-energy dog isn’t broken - they just haven’t learned the skill of regulation yet!

💡 The Mellow Canine Approach:
We don’t suppress energy - we teach balance. Because a truly well-trained dog isn’t one who’s always calm... it’s one who knows WHEN to be calm.

Ready to help your “high energy dog” find their off switch? Let’s talk about how! 🐾

Bringing a new dog into your life is exciting, but it’s also a big adjustment – for them! 🐾

Everything we take for granted – doorways, stairs, traffic – is new and potentially overwhelming for your dog. They aren’t born knowing our rules or routines. It’s up to us to teach them with patience, empathy, and consistency.

At The Mellow Canine, we help you understand your dog’s perspective so you can build a stronger bond and guide them through our world with confidence.

Remember: Understanding is the foundation of trust. 💛

🎉 What’s a “Jackpot” in Dog Training? 🐾

In dog training, a “jackpot” is when you reward your dog with lots of treats at once for an amazing performance! 🌟 It’s a fun and effective way to keep your pup motivated, especially during challenging tasks or when learning something new.

Here’s how to use jackpots:
✅ Reward exceptional efforts, not every time.
✅ Vary treats to keep things exciting!
✅ Use jackpots during training and even for great everyday behavior.

Remember, sparingly used jackpots = higher motivation and engagement! 🙌

💡Saturday Tip💡

Choose interactive toys based on your dog’s age, breed, and skill level. Starting with simpler puzzles allows your dog to build confidence as they solve them. Gradually increasing difficulty helps them stay motivated and prevents frustration. Remember, a well-matched challenge promotes focus and boosts self-esteem! If your pup is struggling, guide them through it until they get the hang of it. 🐕‍🦺

Check out the link in my bio for some interactive toys! Also, DM me anything questions you have about what toys are best.

🐕 Let’s Talk About Hackles! Ever seen your dog’s hair stand up along their back? Those raised hackles aren’t always what you think... MYTH BUSTER: Hackles ≠ Aggression Think of hackles like human goosebumps - they’re an involuntary response showing arousal or heightened emotions. Your Dog’s Hackles Might Mean: • Excitement • Surprise • Uncertainty • Interest • Play intensity • Alertness • Overstimulation • Insecurity 🔍 Location Matters: • Shoulders only = Often uncertainty • Full back = Higher arousal • Base of tail = Possible defensive feelings • Patchy raising = Mixed emotions Pro Tip: Always look at the whole picture: • Overall body language • Tail position • Facial expression • Environmental context • Other behavior signals What To Do When You See Hackles: ✨ Stay calm - your energy affects your dog ✨ Assess the environment ✨ Give space if needed ✨ Monitor other stress signals ✨ Consider removing from overwhelming situations Remember: Hackles alone don’t determine your dog’s emotional state - they’re just one piece of the body language puzzle!
