Life With Your Dog

When it comes to skill development, it is a necessity to have momentum and a direction of what you are trying to achieve. Otherwise, habits and skills are seldom to be to be acquired.

One of the most common questions that we as professional dog trainers get is, how should pet owners have "those" potentially uncomfortable conversations when it comes to strangers (dogs AND people) looking to interact with our dogs in public? Many pet owners may feel "awkward" or "mean" for having to advocate for their dog's right to feel safe when they are out and about in the world It is a total MYTH that stranger dogs should always be allowed to interact with one another, or that your dog should have to accept attention from any person they do not know Panos & Luke break down the myriad of themes inside this pandora's box and give some practical tips on how to be the LEADER that your dog believes you to be!

Saharai “Sada” Salazar has been working professionally with canines for over 18 years. Saharai’s education in domestic animal and wildlife biology with an emphasis on canine studies included behavior, anatomy and physiology, genetics, evolution, and diseases at the University of California, Davis.    Saharai’s passion in working with Fear, Anxiety and Stress (FAS) in dogs, especially fear-based aggression, was cultivated in the Isolation Ward of a county animal shelter. For several years, she successfully rehabilitated and placed numerous red-listed dogs slated for euthanasia. Behavior modification presented its own special challenges in a shelter environment, which equipped Saharai with a unique set of skills and the knowledge needed to straddle the rescue and behavior worlds.  Find out more about her amazing work at https://www.wolfmotherk9.com/   Thanks for listening!

Sometimes we take on so much in our day-to-day life, and to make things worse, we suffer more in our head than we actually need to. In this week's episode, Panos comes back from a week out of Sydney to reflect on a few things: how stress affects learning, teaching, and relationships. To accept your current situation, whatever it be, your dog's behaviour, pressures of work, feeling overwhelmed with life's demands, etc. Once you see it for what it is, make plans moving forward, and over time, learn to read these patterns and be proactive. You are only best for others when you, yourself is at your best, this applies to your relationship and training with your dog and, of course many other factors to other areas of your life.   Thanks for listening!

After a streak of technical training talk, Panos takes the time to remind us that life with our dogs is not only about training. Take the time to remind yourself what you get from the relationship with your dog and 'EP12- Why we have dogs in our lives' can be a great episode to refer to for a deeper focus on this. Incorporate training to enhance your life with your dog, to allow for biological fulfilment and establish rules and boundaries, just remember to love your dog and create memories based on what it is you love about dogs.
