*CANINE MATCHMAKING: The key to successful dog ownership*

Coming out of my posting hibernation to talk about what I think is the MOST important problem to conquer in the dog industry: people bringing home dogs that make no sense for their lifestyle.

Recently I wrote a blog post about how you can be proactive in selecting a dog that you are compatible with, which prevents so many problems. I see blatant mismatches so often, which usually could have been easily avoided through better owner education. Sometimes it’s not a behavior issue, it’s first and foremost a compatibility issue. The personality and needs of the dog do not align with the personality and needs of the human. When this is the case training can only get you so far. This causes more dogs to be returned to and deposited at shelters.

On top of many people not understanding what type of dog best suits their life, there are problems at every layer of the industry that set them up for failure. Dogs not being properly and thoroughly evaluated at shelters/rescues (of course there are some that are doing a great job of this!), bad breeders creating dogs with poor temperaments and not caring to vet buyers or provide proper education, trainers not understanding how to show people who their dog is and what they need, etc...

With all these potential failure points, the best way to prevent a mismatch is ultimately owner education. Knowing what you need to enrich your life, not add stress and conflict, and knowing what questions to ask to ensure you achieve a good match.

Read more here, and please share with anyone who is considering adding a dog to their home!

The companionship of a dog is one of the greatest joys in life. But, the companionship of the RIGHT dog is bliss.

And then there were 3….
In the process of fostering Milo and trying to find him a new home, we realized that he was already home. ❤️ Welcome to the family Milo man, excited for you to do life with us! 🐶🐶🐶

***UPDATE: ADOPTED! 🤩🤩***

Please share!!Help us find Milo a new forever home!

Milo is somebody’s dream dog. Is it you?

He is a 5 year old Mini Aussie and is sweet and cute as heck! His current owner is not able to provide him with the fulfillment and focus he needs to thrive and be his best self. So, we are working together to find him the perfect home. Milo is currently going through training with me and this dog has serious potential! He is an incredibly fast learner, super smart and very motivated/eager to work as a team. When he is working with you he is LASER focused, and he needs someone who will give him that same energy back. I’m not kidding when I say this guy is someone's dream dog!

He is an absolute dream to walk on a leash (see video in comments below) and has not displayed any reactivity to other dogs or people while walking on a leash in the neighborhood or at the park. I have footage that I can send to any potential adopters. I will be continuing to work with him daily for the next 2 weeks to help develop his training foundation. We would love for his future adopters to be committed to ongoing training to make the transition into his new home seamless. His current owner has offered to pay for a 4 session training package with me to get you started off on the right foot.

Milo would be an amazing adventure dog, so if you love to explore, hike, walk, etc… this is the guy for you!

Milo will not do well in a home where he is an afterthought, he deserves the world! He would thrive as an only dog so he can really build a connection with his owner. But, with the right owner it is possible he could be successful living with another dog.

Please share to help spread the word, and reach out to me via email @ [email protected] with any inquiries so I can get you in touch with his current owner. He is staying in his current home until he finds the right fit!

Stay tuned for updates and more videos/photos of Milo’s training adventures!

Love this!!!

Introducing Woof & Whiskers' New Reactive Dog Program!

Do you have a furry friend who's a bit more cautious around other dogs or humans? At Woof & Whiskers, we understand that every pup deserves to feel special, pampered, and catered to, regardless of their social preferences. That's why we're thrilled to announce our brand-new Reactive Dog Program!

Most pet businesses focus on social animals, but not us. We've been there with reactive pets ourselves, so we know firsthand how important it is to create a safe and enjoyable experience for every dog, no matter their temperament. If you have a reactive or shy dog who could benefit from a private shopping experience, look no further! Our program offers a unique opportunity for your pup to explore our store in a stress-free environment, without the usual hustle and bustle that can be overwhelming. The door will be locked once you and your pup enter, calming music will be played, back or front door entry is available to ensure a safe and calm shopping experience!

Ready to treat your furry friend to a special day out? Send us an email at [email protected], and let's chat about booking a private shopping experience tailored specifically to your pup's needs. Because at Woof & Whiskers, every dog is a good dog deserving of love, pampering, and spoiling! Please note: there is a $35 minimum spend requirement per session to cover staffing. Thanks for your understanding!
