Work
Dogs are ‘do-ers’. They need things to do to keep them mentally stimulated. If we don’t find a job for them they will become ‘self employed’. Usually a dog’s idea of a good time is somewhat different to our idea of a good time!
Ripping up the house or yard, barking non stop, stealing undies! Problem behaviours like this can surface if we don’t give our dogs adequate stimulation everyday.
We make work fun by turning general obedience into a game and teaching useful ‘life skills’. -
Rest
It’s not healthy to lay around on the couch all day, it’s not cool to be to GO GO GO all day either.
Showing our dogs when it’s appropriate to go bananas and when it’s time to switch off is often overlooked in training nowadays. It’s important to give our dogs plenty of chill out time between training sessions to allow them to digest everything they’ve learned.
Everyone needs a bit of peace and quiet from time to time and by teaching our dogs to switch off we create a more enjoyable home environment for everyone. -
Play
Playing with a dog is one of the most rewarding and enjoyable activities on the planet!
We incorporate play into our training as a reward and sometimes just for the fun of it. We set fairly loose rules when it comes to play. A game with no rules is no fun (no one would know what the objective is, how do you win?), a game with some rules makes it a challenge! We don’t want play to be too regimented though. By introducing structure in play we can teach a retrieve, leave it, give, proof obedience under high arousal, install an on/off switch and so much more!
Not every dog will love every game. We will find what works for you and bring back the fun of owning a dog.
