⚠️ Poor air quality affects our pets, too. ⚠️

We're currently experiencing very unhealthy to hazardous air quality due to wildfire smoke from Canada. There's been a lot of information about protecting ourselves, but our pets need extra precautions too.

Pets at higher risk include:
❗Puppies and kittens
❗Senior pets
❗Flat-faced breeds (Bulldogs, Pugs, Boston Terriers, etc.)
❗Pets with heart or respiratory disease (such as asthma, chronic bronchitis, collapsing trachea, or heart disease)
❗Pets that spend a lot of time outdoors or are very active
❗ Birds

Watch for:
🐾 Coughing
🐾 Excessive panting or increased respiratory effort
🐾 Wheezing
🐾 Red or watery eyes
🐾 Lethargy
🐾 Reluctance to exercise or play

🚨 Seek veterinary care immediately if your pet has severe difficulty breathing, continuous coughing, collapses, or has blue, gray, or very pale gums or tongue. When it doubt call your local veterinarian and ask!

Until the air quality improves, keep outdoor time as short as possible, avoid strenuous exercise, and keep pets indoors with windows closed when you can. If you have a HEPA air purifier, now is a great time to use it.

As a degree-level dog professional who's been working in the industry for quite some time now, I really do feel saddened by the state of the dog industry as a whole. Here are just a few things that really grind my gears:

Your dog's harness is probably damaging their body!! 😱

I'm seeing another push for the belief that "harnesses are safer" and well the debate on equipment is complex. Do or don't, it's your choice but your choice should be an informed one. Harnesses are not inherently safer!

Research has found that 82% of dogs are wearing improperly fitted harnesses and of those dogs 78% had developed injuries related to that.

In order for a harness to be a safer alternative it must:

🛑 Never cross a joint
🛑 Not tighten around the dog's shoulders, ribs, or abdomen, EVER.
🛑 Not slide around when the dog moves or the leash is pulled
🛑 Suit the individual dog's confirmation
🛑 Be well padded, with wide straps that distribute the force and protect the dog from buckles, rings, any fittings
🛑 Be adjustable at all points

Seems like a lot of criteria right? Not really, not once you learn that your dog's front limbs are held onto the body purely by soft tissues. Their front limbs are not stabilized by any bony attachment, like our collarbone. There is also a vein, an artery and a nerve between EVERY rib. Compromising their function disrupts the body's ability to transport blood and send signs, leading to serious painful and life threatening complications.

There is no "best harness" -- but there are harnesses which help avoid hurting your dog, fit well and do not interfere with natural healthy movement.

If you have questions about your harnesses fit and function join our group Behavior Solutions with Gracen to find out!

I don't know who needs to hear this but all dogs are self-serving swindlers… it’s in their DNA.

Dogs (and people), make choices based on their very own personal desires, and how to get more of what feels good, or what offers relief. Our actions are based on how much pleasure is granted out of each choice made.

🦴 If jumping on guests, or you, gets them attention... they’ll keep doing it.

🦴 If barking at the door gets you off of the couch... they’ll keep doing it.

🦴 If whining gets you to coddle and sweet talk them out of boredom... they’ll keep doing it.

🦴 If pawing at your leg gets you to throw their ball... they’ll keep doing it.

🦴 If crying while in the crate gets you to let them out... they’ll keep doing it.

🦴 If charging out the front door ahead of you gets them outside quicker... they’ll keep doing it.

🦴 If lunging and growling at other dogs or humans gets them to move further away... they’ll keep doing it.

🦴 If pulling on the leash gets them to that tree they want to sniff... they’ll keep doing it.

🦴 If growling when trying to take the bone away gets you to leave them alone... they’ll keep doing it.

Do you get the picture?

The bad news is, when this “stuff” is left unaddressed, it will get worse. Way worse, becoming more intense and more frequent. The more something works to bring pleasure, or to escape discomfort, the more it will occur.

It’s our job to let our dogs know what works for them isn’t necessarily what’s in their best interest, (and sometimes it just doesn’t work for us). Effective training, which includes both Yes and No, encourages our dogs to make APPROPRIATE choices based on what WE allow, not what is always gratifying to them. So if you don't like something your dog is doing it is your job to make something else more gratifying for them.
