It's been a while since we made a post. So we are starting this week off strong with a new weekly segment. Monday Advice to start your week out right.

May 1st: Give your dogs a well deserved break. If you notice your dog is more jumpy, nervous, or not working as well as they normally do, they may just need a break. Dogs, like people, work best when they have days off to relax. It's important to schedule in some down time and if possible give your dog one or two days a week that is full of fun and relaxing with minimal expectations.
This is especially important for the working dogs like service dogs.

What do you do with your dog on a relaxing day?
