Life With Your Dog

In this week's episode Panos and Luke discuss the differences between "adopting" or "rescuing" a dog (the quotation marks are there for a reason), and purchasing a puppy from a breeder. There is no better or worse decision, it is more about weighing up the differences to better understand which is best for you and your individual situation.

Today's question comes from Nicholas, who is wondering if it is possible to legally walk his dog off-leash, or to have it certified for doing so.

Dogs that are over-excited, fearful, aggressive, or lack impulse control can show reactive behaviour on the end of the lead. In this episode we unpack some ways to help deal with this undesirable behaviour, and hopefully give you a few things that can be implemented in your routine and training. Here Panos covers topics of good management, counter conditioning, regular training/stimulation, appropriate expectations, and the importance of looking after your own state of mind.Thank you for listening, and please enjoy the show!

Dog parks seem to attract a lot of dog owners for the simple reason that most dogs have a really fun time playing with other dogs. Even though this is true, there are many issues that are created at dog parks. The dog park could potentially be a dangerous place. Not all dogs are social in the way we would expect, which can lead to your dog having a really bad experience. Panos has trained over 1000 dogs in his career, and a big percentage of dogs he sees that are dog aggressive/reactive are a result of a bad experience at the dog park. Also it can be a place where your dog learns to ignore you and place a higher value in other dogs, which isn't the worst thing, but can potentially affect your training. This doesn't mean all dog parks are bad or that your dog is guaranteed a bad experience but this episode is to share some light on the topic. To dog park or not to dog park is up to you to decide, but make sure you make a well informed decision before entering. Thank you for listening, and please enjoy the show!

Toilet training puppies and rescue dogs can be a challenge. Key techniques like crate training are essential for establishing good habits. Practical strategies include the use of puppy pads and reinforcing positive behaviors. Learn effective clean-up tips, including natural deodorizers like vinegar. Discover how to create routines that encourage dogs to potty in specific areas.

One of the most important tools you have in managing and training your dog is the walk. We discuss why a structured walk of rules and boundaries - along with play and engagement training - is important. Panos explains how he walks his own dogs and what he teaches to his clients so that the dogs are being fulfilled - mentally and physically - on the walk. The walk should be an enjoyable time for both sides of the lead.
