these dogs deserve better. 🤎

i will die on the hill that one of the best things a dog parent can do is learn about dog body language & stress signals. being able to identify when our dog is stressed, and actually listening to their stress signals is SO important.

we can then easily identify at what point they become stressed when a trigger is around. or if our training methods are causing them stress. we can prevent escalation & bites if we are able to identify warning signs.

don’t just expect your dog to learn your language. learn their language also!

meet Mindy, our newest foster pup. she was found as a stray in really bad condition. she is still the sweetest girl i’ve ever met. i can’t wait to shower her with all the love, and teach her how amazing life should be. you deserve the world, sweet girl 🩷

your dog probably doesnt love their face being grabbed, and instead of reinforcing the behavior you’re just teaching them that something unpleasant follows the treat.

pay attention to how often you do this because you’d be shocked how many people do it without even realizing!!!
