In this episode, I talk about how you can get effective behavior change with alternative behavior. Alternative behavior is what we can tell our dogs to do in place of the behavior we don’t want them to do.

In this episode, I talk about how you can prepare your dog for the upcoming holiday season. The most important thing that will set you up for success is knowing your dog well. I encourage you not to put your dog in a situation that they cannot handle because a change in routine won't be easy for our dogs.

When we're talking about large breed dogs, I put a lot of emphasis of early socialization. Getting them comfortable around a lot of stimulus is important so that when they grow up to be big dogs, barking, lunging, and darting can be way less likely. In this episode, I talk about 3 major skills to teach large dogs when they are younger: leash skills, cars and stairs skills, and spatial awareness.

Consent in care is a protocol in which we teach a dog a behavior and if they provide this behavior, they are saying yes to what we are doing. Cooperative care, on the other hand, we're not getting the dog's explicit yes but we're making it the least unpleasant that we possibly can and they're still actively engaging with us. In this episode, I talk about how to navigate this spectrum.
