What a session tonight… We went deep. We answered every question that came through the community and then somehow ended up down a few proper rabbit holes along the way… the kind that actually change how you see your dog, not just what you do with them. If you’ve ever felt like: 👉 “Why isn’t this working?” 👉 “Am I doing the right thing?” 👉 “Why does my dog just lose it sometimes?” There’s something in this replay for you. We covered: 🐾 Real-life struggles from owners just like you 🐾 How to actually build calm, not just chase it 🐾 The small shifts that completely change behaviour 🐾 And a few honest truths most people won’t tell you This is one of those ones where if you implement even 10% of it… things start to click. Jump in, watch it back, and drop any follow-up questions below 👇 Let’s keep building calm dogs and even better homes together 🤍🐾

After the live video about the discomfort threshold I fine tuned my “ah” and my “yes”. Now when Snoop Dog bolts up and makes a noisy dash to the doggie door in response to something outside, I give a strong “ah” and he stops and turns his head to look at me and I can see that he’s thinking. That’s when I give a big “yes” and he runs to me. I cheer every time.

Maverick had his second day at the Training Academy I picked Maverick up this afternoon. He seemed to be very tired but happy to see me. I brought him another toy from the Training Academy and talked about how we can improve Maverick as it gets older with the two lovely ladies. We went home and Maverick was full of life as he normally is. We played with his new toy for about half an hour with his mate Barney we went inside so I could get them their dinner unfortunately I left the front door open. A lady was walking her two dogs and Maverick had noticed them walking past ran out barking at them with aggression. I went outside called Maverick. He did not come the first time the second time I called him he came to me. I was quite upset with the aggression Maverick had with the two dogs took him inside put on his lead got his safe mat and made him sit there. Yes it took me six times but he stayed there for a good hour and a half without moving was proud of Maverick then I am praying and hoping that Maverick will not be an aggressive dog. Not quite sure what to do about that. If you have any ideas for me to stop him from being like that, I am quite willing to listen I understand that Maverick is still a pup. Only five months old. I hope he can grow out of this cheers Paul.

Ask me literally anything about dogs so I be an answer in the q and a this week!

Deb from LifeWise says that dog stools should be kickable balls, so when Miss Honey pooped on our walk this morning and produced what can only be described as kickable balls I knew that Deb would give them a big tick. The trouble was, we were walking up a hill at the time, and one of those balls rolled back down the hill and my pups desperately wanted to chase it. haha. Gotta love dogs!
