Most people hate muzzles because them think muzzle means serious aggressive and vicious behaviour. I see it differently: I believe that dogs that are aggressive sometimes don’t need it and many dogs that aren’t aggressive actually need it. Learn how muzzles can solve problems like scavenging by listening to the full episode.

Manners around food at home, in the park and when in possession of food is REALLY important! Are you creating polite and positive behaviours in those situation for is this aggravating and becoming a problem?

In our society we want to let people know when they made a mistake because we think this is necessary for the person to learn. But how do you feel when someone call you out, even if in a gentle way? Shameful, embarrassed, guilty, sometimes even angry and frustrated. Very few times I felt good when someone said I shouldn’t so something. This inhibits learning and have a huge impact on the process of achieving the goal. However, this is something that is ingrained in us and it’s difficult to change in our brains. I work on this on myself everyday and I’m very careful to not shut down the person when trying to repair the damage or control the damage that was done. This could be that I gave a certain instruction to a client and the person have done something completely different or when my partner puts the cups on the mug cupboard. Doesn’t matter, depending on the way you approach this you’ll have different results. The question here is: is it the most effective and best way to get results in your dog training?

And the answer is to divert the attention from the mistake to new instructions! I explain how this works in dog behaviour in this episode.

Resenting dogs is a real thing!

lets not pretend we love our dogs all the time. we can piss off, we think that they are annoying, we get angry when they get in the way of our plans and we most of the time feel parenting guilt. I will answer today why this happens and how to avoid it.

Resentment is the light turning up in the panel to tell you that you need to attend to this.

Today's episode we talked about the nervous system and the estates that our dogs go into. Knowing this is super important so we can care for their wellbeing and make sure they are in the optimal arousal level when we want to train or have focus! Also, we talked about what is regulation and how to regulate our dogs which is very different than training. By the end we got into the cues and type of training we need to focus when dogs are puppies to ensure they will be happy and not have behaviour issues. Have fun!
