240 | Your Dog Knows the Command. That’s Not the Problem. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Hey Dog Lover 🐾 Come. Stay. Leave it. Off. Down. Let’s go. No. We humans are incredibly verbal. And somewhere along the way, we seem to have decided that because our dogs live with us, they must also be fluent in English. So when we say “come” and our dog doesn’t come, what do we do? We say it again. Usually louder. “COME!” As though the problem is that they didn’t hear the English the first time. Sometimes dog training looks an awful lot like shouting English as a second language at your dog. A
239 | The Goal Was Never a Well-Trained Dog (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Hey Dog Lover 🐾 What did you actually want when you brought your dog home? Probably a dog you could do life with. A dog you could walk with. Take places. Go on adventures with. Hang out with. A dog you enjoyed being around and who enjoyed being around you. And yes, you probably wanted them to listen to you. You wanted a good recall. Some basic manners. Because nobody wants to live with an absolute hooligan. But somewhere along the way, we started confusing training the dog with the actual goal.
238 | Your Dog Said No. Now What? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Hey Dog Lover 🐾 Your dog says no. Maybe they pull their paw away when you try to trim their nails. Maybe they move away when you reach toward them. Maybe they’re very clearly communicating: “I don’t want you to do this.” So... now what? Because I think we’ve created two extremes when it comes to listening to our dogs. On one side: “I’m the human. You’re the dog. We’re doing this whether you like it or not.” And on the other: “My dog said no, so I have to stop.” But healthy relationships aren’t q
237 | Why Training Isn’t Where to Start With a Fearful Dog (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Hey Dog Lover 🐾 If you have a fearful dog, chances are you've been told you need to build their confidence. More training. More exposure. More experiences. More opportunities to successfully accomplish things. Because training builds confidence , right? Well... maybe. But when I'm working with a fearful dog, confidence actually isn't where I start. Because before I want your dog to believe: “I've got this.” I want them to believe: “You've got me.” And that changes where we begin. Instead of focu
236 | Are You Training Your Dog… or Just Performing Dog Training? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Hey Dog Lover 🐾 Have you ever learned a dog training technique, tried it with your dog exactly the way you were taught... and it didn't work? Maybe the problem isn't the technique. Maybe somewhere along the way, we've become so focused on doing dog training correctly that we've forgotten to pay attention to the dog standing in front of us. Where should my hands be? When do I say the word? When do I reward? What am I supposed to do next? And while we're busy trying to remember all the steps, our
