Broken dreams. The ideal dog gone bad. Often people get discouraged with a dog situation, blame the dog, and give it away.
The dog wasn’t the problem. The real culprit is lack of training, care and addressing concerns.
Talking about signs, symptoms, & solutions.
As you pay more attention to the relationship between you and your dog, you will find your dog will too. We explore curiosity, subtlety, engagement and positive reinforcement. Be the change maker in your relationship. Your dog will be much more willing to follow your lead towards being a relaxed, happy, easy going and attentive, responsive canine.
I'm working with a growing puppy and he is going through important growth stages. I can push through with training or choose another way. Let's listen to what happens on this day with Rascal.
(You may want to turn the volume down on today's podcast.)
THIS is how it's done and it is fast to train. Incredible, at the right time and the right place, to capture teaching quiet in a whisper and getting desired results.
Clarifying point: the treat or toy (desired item) is in your hand when you draw your hand off to the side.
Get first lesson success and then practice to develop consistency and gradually add distractions. This is how easy clear communication training can be. And you are maintaining your best friend relationship. Love it!
Update: Drawing your hand off to the side is important. This action obtains your dog's total focus and gives space and time to draw out the quiet, no barking period that you will acknowledge and reward.
Disclaimer: Some of the barking is from me with the purpose of inciting barking from my student. There was additional barking from me because I enthusiastically got caught up in the excitement of barking. That is all.
DOG ALERT! If you see a dog in this or a similar situation, jump into action and help this dog! (See image here) Be willing to be a voice for those who are not heard. Bravely, and kindly, stand up for dogs who are at the mercy of others in need of clarity. When we take a moment and wonder how we'd feel as the individual in need of help, it makes us braver. I'm not saying we'll do it perfectly. But if we find the courage to align ourselves with the dog, sincerity will carry us through. We might sweat bullets of fear, but let's do the right thing for the dog. Right? Right.
P.S. Don't be a doggy downer who creates Doggy Don'ts.
