nope, pulling is either there or it's not. Has nothing to do with the harness This misconception comes from dogs avoiding the leash pressure on a thin collar because it hurts A harness is safer and more comfy so negative emotions don't stack up through the tool (the situation itself triggers them anyway)

❤️❤️

what do you mean?

so glad it helps 💗💗 and congrats to the new family member and to lots of progress 🥳 Tbh with puppies I just let them explore (no walks), takes a lot of the stress away and the prep works for that as well 🤗

I totally get your concerns However a well-fitting muzzle does not hinder the dog to do any of those things. It needs to be large enough to allow panting as deeply as the dog wants without him touching the metal with the chin 😉 Usually, that means, yawning is possible too A muzzle like that has nothing inhumane about it. Ofc it needs to be trained as well, so that it feels to the dog just like glasses do to us 🤓

Thank you for your kind words 🥰 I agree our furry friends can' speak for themselves so they need us to be even more compassionate and empathetic 🤗

That sounds very stressful 🐕 Might not look like it but sometimes pulling and trouble with guests are related How long have you been training?

@@BraveDogTrainingOnline About 2 years. We don't have many people round the house. I suspect it's territorial. We had a tradesman round last week and it really kicked off so I watched lots of YT videos and used a slip lead (think that's its name) for the next day. Every time he barked I did a small sharp tug of the lead and made a "tst" sound. There was a marked improvement and when I walked him past the man we made it past a few times with him just looking. Result! He's a rescue, mixed but he looks like predominantly Tibetan spaniel but very very ginger which is why I think he has something else in the mix. I'm kind of intrigued to do one of those DNA tests. Are they any good?

Wow, 2 years is a long time, cudos for the stamina 🥳 Yep on the surface that works However, it does not make him feel better about people (the underlying emotion behind reactivity towards people is most likely fear) That's often what nobody mentions about these tools or techniques 🫣 There great force-free alternatives though that really address the underlying causes 👍👍 As for the DNA tests, as long as the genome of the breeds are known, they seem to work fine but not all of them are (as far as I know) And there are street dog "breeds" that are just naturally evolved dogs. Those look similar to some breeds but aren't related. I think the tests cannot include them 🤷‍♀️ So may be fun to play around with but for training it's more important what your individual pup shows you than what any test could ever tell you 💗

👍👍

Thank you ♥️♥️💮💮

Do you mean the blue one? That's a custom made one from a colleague. I usually make them myself or have them made bc I want a clip on the neck and my rescue pups are usually between sizes 🙃

awesome 🎉🎉🐕

Thank you so much for your sweet comment, I love that the little hack helps 🤗🤗

I'm so glad you find them helpful 🌸 I'll look into it, sometimes Calumi nudges the mic 🙃

That can be the reason but it doesn't have to be, some just like it and there are no nutrients missing ;) It's an evolutionary thing when dogs ate out of latrines

hihi he sure is 🥰🥰

I'm not sure I understand, what you are trying to say... care to elaborate?

Nope, I make them myself 🙃

Thank you so much 🤗♥️

aaawww you are too sweet, thank you ♥️♥️♥️🐕🐕

Hi 🙃 it sounds like stress could be an issue I'd assess where that stress is coming from (besides puberty) and integrate destressing into a training plan 👍👍

Thank you so much, and a huge congrats to Pia and you ❤️❤️

🤣🤣

Oh I know that guilt and doubt, but she is perfect just the way she is ❤️❤️

Thank you so much for sharing ❤️ Congratulations 🥳🥳💐

Yes, so true 🥳 Dogs are wonderful at reading our tiny signs, so we get better results when we take both needs and emotions into consideration 👍

It depends on your dog 🐕 Whenever I walk with a dog who can't handle it yet, I'd avoid such a street and start working on 1 house in the beginning 👍

@BraveDogTrainingOnline Thanks a lot for your tricks and answers. I had some trainers for my Pei girl who came during the COVID closure with hers for 2 months, so this was too early for Peis to be divided from their mother. So she and I slept together, and she slept on my neck. But she was fearful outside, not in the house. I pushed too much pressure on her to encounter everything: dogs, people, trailers (by the way, she adores them), and she is quite okay. Peis avoid people and just sniff them, but I made a huge mistake and began to work with trainers who worked K9 style. Then we lost our bond outdoors that we had. So, for the first time today, we renewed our bond outdoors. Thanks so much again.

aaaaaw I'm so happy for you too ❤️❤️🎊🎊 It's not easy but maybe this can be the day to forget the past and just start enjoying what is now, you are doing a wonderful job 🥳🥳

She's a mutt ❤🐕

Such a great question 👍 That happens very often and in the beginning of training, she will probably not be able to do any tricks either whenever a scary sound happens What I like to do with sound sensitive dogs is pair the sound with something positive and catch it with a marker The full plan really depends on the dog, the severity of the anxiety and so many different factors 🙃 But the marker is a good start 👍👍

@@BraveDogTrainingOnline Marker such as clicker sound?

Yep, followed by whatever reward she still likes (even if it's only verbal praise) ❤
