Hey there my fellow dog lover!

If there is one thing I can say about my life with dogs is that I have learned so much from living with and working with large groups of dogs.

I have had the opportunity to see:

Familial Packs

Temporary Packs

Working Packs

And of course, living with my House Pack

And I can say that they are wildly different.

So that is why when I hear tragic stories of dogs getting hurt (or worse) from intentional dog lovers when they are fostering dogs or pet-sitting dogs in their homes, I knew I wanted to share some of my insight and the things I have learned over the years.

So buckle up, this one got away from me, but there are some good takeaways in this episode.

Also, be sure to sign up to be Pen Pals with me so that you can be the first to know when we have our new Fearful Dog course out and the Multi-dog Household Masterclass. Coming soon!

Hey there dog lover!

I am so glad you are here and this is a "controversial" dog training topic.

But I know this one thing can change your dog training journey for the better so it must be said.

Today on the podcast I am talking about the power of no and how if you have been told you MUST use positive only or purely positive training, you my friend have been "marketed "to. (And there really is on such thing😉)

So it's not about not using the word no, but rather HOW you use the word no and I am sharing exactly how to do it so that you can finally get some results.

Don't stay stuck in your training. Give your dog the feedback to help them understand and feel safe in Humansville.

You can say no!

Next Steps:

Hey there fellow dog lover!

So I was in Pet Valu the other week when an already nervous/anxious dog working on "socialization" reacted (negatively) to a little puppy who came into the store.

The chaos and barking caught my attention and before I could get around the isle to see what was going on, both owners (and the staff at Pet Valu) were all saying "It's okay, you're okay!"

The puppy owner was petting her pup and saying it.

The anxious dog owner was saying it.

The employee at the cash register was saying it.

And as I watched, I thought... Nothing about this is okay.

This incident inspired this week's episode on the podcast. :-)

Learn why I do not like the phrase "It's Okay!"

and what you should say instead.

Also, in this episode,

I discuss when I would turn my back on a threat, and when I wouldn't.

There is lots of great tactical stuff in this episode~

​

Let me know what you think!

​

Talk to you next week!

​

Cheers

Hey there my fellow dog lover!

Whenever I get a phone call about dog training, I usually have to admit I don't teach obedience or hold obedience classes.

But most often, if people are calling about training they usually don't need obedience training at all...

And that is where I come in!

This week I am talking about why you shouldn't be obedience training your newly adopted rescue and what you *should* be doing instead.

So grab your notebook because today I am sharing 3 things you should be doing for your dog AND

3 things you should be doing for YOU,

when you adopt a new rescue dog.

Hey there dog lover!

Do you want to learn something about your relationship with your dog?? (of course, you do! 😉)

Today, you are getting a sneak peek at one of the first lessons in my Relationship Remedy Online Program!

This is one of my favourite exercises that all of my students do.

It's called BE with.

I first learned about this when my dad bought me a baby horse. I was thrown into the deep end of trying to figure out horse psychology ( prey) instead of dog psychology (predator).

So that began an incredible journey of learning and today I am sharing that with you!

Your dog is always communicating with you... and this exercise will help you stop and take a moment to listen. :-)

I hope you enjoy this mediative exercise in awareness.
