Do you have a reactive dog? Most people do have a dog that exhibits at least a little reactivity. It's also a kind of broad and meaningless term in the sense that any dog that is living is going to "react" to things. But what we are talking about is when your dog reacts to normal everyday things in a manner that ranges from mildly annoying to extremely disruptive, upsetting, and dangerous.

If you want to get your dog's reactivity under control once and for all, listening to this episode might be your first step to success.

Everyone's Least Favorite Topic—But It Might Be The Most Important 55:49

hace 6 weeks55:49

55:49

This episode is dedicated entirely to talking about punishment (corrections for those that are too ninny to use the p word). We are very effective at stopping unwanted behaviors, so...how do we do it? I explain in detail what the process looks like and why it doesn't work for so many folks (they are doing it wrong). This is stuff nobody will tell you! Haha. But I will!! Tired of being gaslit into thinking there is something wrong with your dog or that you just need to keep being patient? I don't blame you. That's because you will never achieve the desired result of eliminating a behavior if you don't understand these concepts. As a sidenote, this is NOT how we train dogs to do obedience commands. Punishment is for STOPPING behaviors, not building behaviors. If you are trying to get your dog TO DO something, that is more of a process and involves a lot more guidance. This is how you get your dog NOT to do something. For instance, the window barking, the hole digging, the jumping up, etc.…

Is Your Dog A Little "Extra" Sometimes? The Missing Magic Ingredient. 24:38

So many people would classify their dog as "trained", yet they still have trouble getting what they want from their dog. Or more commonly, getting what they DON'T want to diminish. Here's the thing, you can teach your dog a million commands, tricks, etc., but none of that will really wire your dog to control themselves when things are exciting or challenging in some way. So... how the heck do you do that?! Well, most of our clients are absolutely blown away by their dog's behavior and ability to mellow out by the end of one single session. Take a listen.…

A rant about the abhorrent behavior of the purely positive "experts".

And these are the same folks, ironically, that will jump at the opportunity to punish anybody who shows you how to do just that—train the dog.…

But What If You "Mess Up" Your Dog?! 18:24

hace 32 weeks18:24

18:24

There is a lot of controversy over the ecollar and any tool that can be used "aversively". There is no new information there. But, even people that seem to love using the ecollar are often very outspoken about dog owners doing their own ecollar training or buying online courses on the topic. Have you noticed this? Are you one of the people with an ecollar still sitting in the box because you aren't sure what to do?Or maybe you just feel like the whole thing is too stressful after having heard all the noise out there about the "potential drawbacks". Have a listen.. Also, if you want to get started with ecollar training, I do offer an online course "10 Days To A Great Place", that walks you through introducing your dog to the ecollar and tying it to their basic commands, and teaching the place command start to finish!

That is absolutely not the case! Dogs can be really difficult. But that my friend is an uncontrollable. And there is a lot of opportunity on the controllable end of things- the human end. And although I have a very high percentage of successful clients, I also have clients sometimes that sign up for private sessions and literally teach their dogs nothing. They sign up with high hopes and the best intentions, but walk away with nothing but disappointment. Today we delve into why people struggle to prioritize their dog's training and be effective with it.…

There Are Only Two "Types" Of Training—Effective And Ineffective 23:57

It seems like every 5 minutes there is some new training fad sweeping the country. Here's the thing.. We've known the principles of behavior for a very long time now, and they haven't changed. Do you really think there is some wildly effective new discovery that defies these laws? Every other day I see another "technique" or "program" promising unprecedented results. They give them catchy names or acronyms, and you ALWAYS have to pay money for them, but do they actually work?? People also tend to confuse *techniques* with methods. A good example of this is the clicker. You can do the exact same training without a clicker. The clicker itself is not the most important part of the method. I could use a whistle instead of a clicker and call it whistle training..Confused? Good. Take a listen.…

And it's getting in your way. Do you always follow through with things you supposedly "expect" from your dog? Or are there times when you think it's okay to kind of let it slide "this time"? Do you think that affects your overall results as far as how well your dog listens? You betcha.

If your dog is a little nutty, chances are good that you've noticed there is room for improvement. But usually the things we notice are the things that are really problematic for us, not the things that actually indicate the dog is really unbalanced. We notice things that inconvenience us...like the dog won't listen or chews your shoes or the dog is "afraid" of people, etc. But the true nature of your dog's state of mind is visible when none of those things are occuring. And they are tied together. What are you not seeing in your dog??…

Are You Doing These Critical Things With Your Puppy? 30:57

hace 43 weeks30:57

Customers consistently tell me they are blown away by the changes in their dog and how much better their behavior is at the end of a board and train. I'm going to tell you exactly why that is so you can have the opportunity to do those things at home! Specifically, today, we are talking about... Puppies! We love puppies!! But seldom do we make good choices with those warm and fuzzy feelings. We risk making all kinds of common mistakes if we don't have a plan when it comes to raising our puppies. Puppies are cute, and fun, and snuggly. But they are also hard work. And I think a lot of times, we aren't prepared for the hard work. We also have no idea what we should really be doing. Just bringing a puppy home and throwing them into the household and expecting them to "find a groove" or "figure things out" is not a good plan. Lots of good info here for anybody with or getting a puppy in the future. A lot of this could apply to any new dog, not just puppies. I don't keep any secrets.…
