Sometimes There's Side Eye

STSE #79: Looking for the Joy


Listen Later

This week we are talking about when social media looks impressive but there is more to the dog's behavior than meets the eye. We recently saw a video that showed a group of dogs behaving militantly and when a little bit of enthusiasm was shown by one dog it was immediately corrected and shut down. While controlling a large group of dogs may appear impressive initially, once the body language of the dogs is taken into account it is obvious the dogs are all lacking joy. We talk through having a relationship that leads to better behavior versus forcing a dog to behave regardless of what that takes. A joyful and obedient dog is not about control, but is instead about the relationship. So next time you see something you think looks impressive online take a second look and consider if that is the type of relationship you want with your dog.
