Let me just start by reminding everyone Calm Collective is at 1pm today! Okay now that’s out of the way. Here is a short video on how I use negative reinforcement to reset and decompress to neutral so that we’re not tackling the excitement and all of the distractions all at once as we ask our dogs not to pull like freight trains on the grass.

Hey legends👋🏼 Any and all questions or anything you would like clarity on drop in the comment section and we will answer in the calm collective tomorrow 🙏🏼

I don't have grass at my place so when I take the dogs for a walk on grass the thing that seems to excite them most is the grass. They don't often lunge at other dogs (though they do some times) or people or bikes but they pull on the lead to sniff the grass. Is that a thing? I do scent activities with them during the day. I scatter feed, give then snuffle balls, hide kibble under balls in muffin tins, etc. Do all dogs do this?
