Newton has been putting in the work during his lessons! 🐾
Newton can be reactive toward other dogs, so today’s session focused heavily on building confidence and working through one of the toughest commands for many dogs: the down command.
Why is “down” so challenging? For a lot of dogs, it’s the most vulnerable and submissive position they can be in, especially in environments with distractions or triggers. But growth happens outside the comfort zone, and Newton is making progress every step of the way. 💪
Confidence is built, not born, and we’re proud of this guy for continuing to show up and trust the process. Keep it up, Newton! 🐶👏
