Relaxing with your dog(s)!
Yes. RELAXING is part of our training. Rufus here has a huge fear of cars. So we are learning to"chil-lax" next to the busy road.
Training your dog doesn't have to all be go go go. Actually, getting your dog to relax more is better than physical activity. Your dog should be getting somewhere around 30min-2hours of physical activity a day depending on the energy level of your dog. The rest of your day, you should be practicing calming exercises.

Guests visiting your home with hyper dogs!

All dogs should know how to control their impulses. Just like we, humans, do.
We are taught at a very young age, no hitting, no biting,


How to stop a dog/puppy from chewing random objects.
Tips on getting your puppy to stop chewing on random things -The first thing is to WATCH them. Puppies are just like infants that can crawl around the house putting everything in their mouth. So watching them ALL the time is critical to them learning "no" and correcting the dog.
