I recently worked with two dogs using Maryna Ozuna, Canine Kinaesthetics™ , the bodywork system developed by Maryna Ozuna, which looks at movement, structure and behaviour as interconnected.

I learned Canine Kinaesthetics™ directly from Maryna. What I value is how her work teaches us to look beyond what a dog is doing and pay attention to how the dog is using and responding through its body. Pulsing Touch and sensory input are not simply done to the dog; the dog’s response is part of the information.

The first case was a 4-plus mth old Dachshund puppy with neurological dysfunction secondary to canine distemper, including seizures and paralysis. I used Canine Kinaesthetics work to facilitate functional movement and provide structured sensory and motor input, with the aim of supporting neuroplasticity and relearning movement. After three sessions, the puppy was able to stand and move much better.

The second case is a 8.5mths Chow Chow with difficulty using the hindquarters. During the first session, the dog was unfamiliar with the Pulsing Touch and reacted, including attempts to bite. By the fifth day, the pet owner reported that the dog was engaging the hind leg more strongly, lifting the hindquarters and taking a few small steps.

During the second session, the dog was calmer and more receptive, lying down and allowing me to work through the body without biting or stress behaviours. After the session, the dog was able to support the hindquarters and take independent steps without the cart.

For me, this is where the Brilliance of Maryna’s work shows. It is not about claiming that touch magically fixes a dog. It is about observing the dog in front of us, understanding how movement, sensory input, physical organisation and behaviour can interact, and working with what the body is telling us.

In both cases, I see encouraging functional responses following the work, without claiming that Canine Kinaesthetics cured the underlying conditions or was solely responsible for the improvement.
Maryna’s own material is clear: Canine Kinaesthetics is intended to support a dog’s quality of life and is not a replacement for proper veterinary care.

During the recent International Association of Canine Professionals conference that i have attended in Newport Beach, CA and one of the most significant key-point take away is this:

i do not think Competent Dog Training is removing all of life's difficult parts for the dog. Life is hard sometimes. It includes frustration and pressure, and choices that don't always feel good.

Humans and dogs think differently, but both learn from consequences in this one Life, same Reality. I do not see the purpose to training a dog is to build a compliant dog.
we are building a dog that can actually function in the real-world, able to tolerate friction and still choose well.

That is not removing Adversity, it is preparing for it. The hardship isn't random, it's not careless. It is carefully Measured to suit that specific dog in front of you and it's Owner, understanding the history, they're unique environment, unique situation, etc, to be successful.
And our job is to keep the whole experience fair and clear. Agency with Guardrails.

Somewhere in there, Resilience is built. That does not mean you deliberately make life hard, but it does mean not pretending the hard parts don't exist. Comfort matters, and so does Adversity.

So for me, this is not about control for the dog's own sake. This is Capacity for life, even when life has a rough edge.
The work is in knowing how much of each, when, and for the dog in front of you because dogs don't come in just One Size Emotionally.
Dog training can't Either.

Pressure in K9 World isn't a dirty word.

It's simply information. The skill is in how it's applied and how quickly it's released, and that depends on the individual dog in front of you and the unique situation at the moment.

The goal isn't compliance through tension, it's clarity, predictability, and emotional neutrality. The dog learns "this is how to find the answer" not "this is something to fight."

Pressure is a language, and competency is what makes that language fair, not forceful.

20/09/2026

This is a raw clip. No editing, no retakes, no polishing. Just what happened in that moment. I like that, because that's why it matters that we actually see the dog in front of us.

He's highly motivated by the sheep horn, yes. But when asked, he can disengage, respond to me, and then re-engage again. That kind of flexibility shows agency and emotional regulation.

He's engaged, but not past the point of no return. That's the part that interests me. Not perfection, Not a staged moment for clicks or engagement. Just a real dog and a real interaction.

Can we actually control the will of a dog?

We can control the environment. We can control access. can manage the situation, create boundaries, reinforce certain choices and apply consequences to others. We can influence behaviour very strongly.

But can we control what the dog actually wants?
I don’t think we can.
A dog can comply and still want something else & can stay beside us while wanting to run towards another dog. It can recall away from something it finds highly valuable. It can choose not to act on an impulse even though that impulse is still there.

And to me, that is where training becomes much more interesting.
Because the goal should not always be to control every decision for the dog. The goal is to develop a dog that is capable of making better decisions for itself. To build understanding, self-control, resilience, better habits and reliability, even when our physical control is no longer there.

If I have to control everything around the dog for the behaviour to hold together, then what exactly have I trained?
Maybe competent dog training is not about taking away the dog’s will.

Maybe it is about teaching the dog how to live with that will, while still being able to make choices that work within the world we share together.

On my way to Newport Beach, California for the IACP Conference.

After all these years in dog training, one thing I know for sure is this — continuing education isn't about looking for people to confirm what you already believe.
You aren't going to IACP to have your existing beliefs confirmed.

You're going there to learn.
If something challenges what you believe, good.
If something makes you rethink something you've been doing for years, good.
If you disagree with something, also good.

That's continuing education.

Because otherwise, we're not really learning. We're just travelling around looking for people who already agree with us, And this brings me to something I have been thinking about.

Like, for those so-called “cross-over” professionals, claiming that the way they used to train was so negative and aversive that it made them want to find a new, better way.

What exactly were they doing before they crossed over?
The question is: why was their previous training experience so negative, abusive and aversive to begin with?

If someone's previous training was abusive, unnecessarily aversive and negative, does that tell us something about professional training itself — or does it tell us something about how that individual was training?

Because this is so, so far from the truth. People never bother to find out the real truth, when the real truth is out there. Internationally, competent professional trainers don't train like this. Such a negative training approach is not what competent professional training is about at all.

Go out there. See it. Learn. Ask questions. Watch good trainers work.

Then make up your own mind.

And be willing to change it too.

i am so appreciative of Jack's elderly owners, (Jack is a 5 months old puppy, very much still learning) that they're trying their best for Jack's long term welfare, not easy at all for the owners

this is an unedited video clip of the training process, I do feel I still needed to improve more in some area, not perfect at all 🙏🏼

this is reality, real-world situations , there is no 2 ways about it.
