Dogs are masters at setting their own boundaries. It’s important for us to be their benevolent leaders and set appropriate boundaries.

Are you reacting or responding appropriately so they know what you want? Ask yourself.

If your dog is showing signs of stress while learning a task, doing agility, etc. stop and evaluate whether this is a necessary thing to do.

It’s best to keep your dogs emotional health in mind not just because you want them to do it.

Parkour fun in the real world.

Practicing anything you’ve taught your pup while out in the real world is fun, deepens your bond, builds confidence in them and builds up your trust account.

Look for anything in your environment and encourage you pup to engage in a game of Up and Off or Stay.

Pay close attention to what your pup is telling you so you can help offer relief. She’s not trying to be bad, she needs your help not punishment.
