RESOURCE GUARDING: PART THREE

Let your dogs eat in peace. Do not disturb your dog when they are eating. There is no need to place your hands in their bowl, take the food away or play with their ears and tail when they are eating.

If we practice this behaviour at meal time every time, dogs quite quickly can become frustrated when eating - it doesn’t take long for dogs to see humans coming and have negative feelings.

Dogs just like us, enjoy spending their meal times alone rather than being bugged or taunted creating the idea - they need to get used to this.

Dogs enjoy eating in peace. This might also work for families with children by dogs eating in a safe zone such as a kennel or crate, an exercise pen or separate area such as a designate dog room.

RESOURCE GUARDING: THE TRADE UP GAME

Practice the trade up game by exchanging your dogs current toy they are playing with, with the exact same toy.

You might need three toys of time same to play this fun game.

When your dog is playing with their fun chosen toy, show them the exact same toy and see if they want to switch for the same toy.

Keep swapping. Keep playing. This helps decrease the value of the toy, by your dog thinking there is only one to play with, helping to eliminate toy guarding.

RESOURCE GUARDING: PART ONE

Resource guarding is when a dog reacts when they perceive a threat to a valuable resource in their possession. This can be anything the dog perceives of as a valuable. From a food related item, to Kleenex.

The dog feels they are about to lose something and takes action to keep it - at any cost.

Resource guarding can look like a look that is different than an every day look - you might even see more white in the eyes - a head turn away, sudden stillness and body tension. More recognizable signs are teeth baring, growling, lunging or biting.

Guarding resources is a very natural dog behavior.

While resource guarding is a normal dog behavior, it's not a desirable one. Resource guarding becomes a dangerous problem if a dog is willing to bite or fight to keep an item - in particular with children in the home.

CANINE CONNECTION TRAINING

Tired of the same old same old? Been down this path seen and smelt it all? Take the same turns on every walk you take?

Time to change it up and explore new places together.

Try connecting on a new walking path, new running space, new sniffing adventure. Even if you need to drive to a new neighborhood to change things up from same old same old.

The more adventures you take to together, the stronger the connection for more positive fun experience.

If you have an active dog, a bouncy dog, a dog who has troubles settling down and relaxing - this 10 a day challenge is for you.

When at home with your dog, if you notice them deciding to lie down and just - relax - reward that behavior.

Some dogs are more active then others, this is where we need to put a little extra work into it.

A down behavior is an excellent behavior for your dog to choose. You can add a verbal reward marker with a down such as ’yes’ or ‘good dog’. If you would like to add a tasty tie bit of a treat - go for it.

The more you reward a calming behavior such as a down body position, the more often it will be offered from your dog.
