Your Dog Needs an On/Off Switch - 7 Things You Can Do

Image
There is nothing more majestic than seeing a dog run, train, and work. It truly is amazing that these creatures will literally run into buildings engaging bad guys or searching for explosives to keep others safe. And what do they do it for?  Simple things: toys, food, or your affection.  I love listening to podcasts on military stories and hearing the countless lives these dogs save.  Dogs need to work. Mentally and physically. They need to run, exercise and bite. They need to be able to ramp it up, but also, tone it down and relax. A lot of dogs are constantly in this amped up phase. They need to be able to turn it off.  Here is the problem: a lot of them can't. They need help. They are constantly go-go-go. Have you ever felt like you are constantly going, in that "fight or flight" mode? Anxious? Worried? Constantly thinking? It isn't a great feeling. This is how some dogs live every single day. Humans have strategies and stress-relief techniques. Dogs need YOU to g...

STOP Taking Your Dog for a "Walk"

I Hate Fences, and I Love "City" Dogs

Are fences themselves a bad thing for dogs? Of course not. Are Cities a better place for dogs to live? No. Any place can be a great place for dogs to live. However, having a fence and living in a city comes with typical patterns that owners and dogs fall into.  Historically, “City” dogs have a much better mental state of mind than their suburban counterparts. Let’s think about two owners, one city, and one suburban. Owner 1 lives in a high rise apartment building in a busy part of town. Owner 2 lives in a house with a nice backyard and fence surrounding it. Every time Owner 1 takes the dog out to go to the bathroom, he must be on a leash. He must go through multiple doors to get outside (good opportunity for leadership) and he will be standing right next to the dog the whole time while he goes to the bathroom. Then maybe they play with a toy in the common grassy area before heading back inside. The theme here is that the owner is right next to the dog because the dog is on a leash...
