DISTRACTED DOG WALKERS

The distracted dog walker is commonly seen chatting on their cell phone, wearing headphones or socializing with other people while oblivious to what their dog is doing, how their dog is feeling or what is going on in the environment.

This may not sound like a problem to some, but it is something that many people have a problem with, even more so if you have a reactive dog.

I compare walking a dog to driving a car. It’s not so much about our driving skills, but having to constantly be aware of the driving skills of others – trying to predict what they will do, which rules of the road they will ignore and how distracted they are. This is especially true in the country I live in, where driving can be a stressful experience.

I understand that we often need to multi task – there simply doesn’t seem to be enough time in our day to accomplish everything we need to, but walking our dogs should not be one of these times.

Some people might say – “but my dog is really friendly, well socialized, gets on well with everyone, is well trained, knows this environment well etc. and I hear that.

But another dog might not be – maybe they need space, are reactive, are not sociable, are recovering from an illness, might be terrified of another dog racing straight towards them chasing a ball thrown from a ball launcher etc.

If distracted dog walkers have no regard for other dogs or other people, they should at least have regard for their own dogs. Walking your dog should be a time of bonding, of relationship, of seeing the environment through the eyes of your dog, of reinforcing and teaching wanted behaviours, of keeping them safe and protected from the unknown.

Our dogs need us to be focused, to pay attention, to be aware and attentive.

Our dogs depend on us to advocate for them.

Our Story

Dog training has been my passion since I was a child. I made it my chosen career and studied dog behaviour. I then went on to train Guide and Service dogs at the South African Guide dog association. I wanted to share my knowledge and help those who have problems with their dogs at home,so I started Pawsome Friends dog school. I believe that a well trained dog makes for a better relationship between the owner and dog, as well as a happier household.

My training is very much individual based and although the courses have set behaviours to learn I’m not as strict and confined as some other schools, I will happily assist in accommodating you to teach other behaviours so you and your dog benefit from training.

All the classes are kept small,max 5 in a class to ensure that all learn in a fair environment.

At the end of the day I want the dog and handler to be happy!
