This dog is highly stressed, was never socialized and often won’t eat outside due to that. We started working on her reactions yesterday in a park with open space and she wouldn’t eat anything, we took a little sniff around and sat on a bench and just offered the food when she checked in. Boom! First win she started eating!
🎃We needed to slow down for her (sitting)
🎃then she started checking in more and more, we got a sit eventually, offered to us! Yay!
💥then we saw a dog, I was able to@move her to maintain space, continue feeding her and have almost no reaction 🎉🎉🎉 lots of looks and attention back to me, TOTALLY WINNING!!

Don’t underestimate the simplest training. Simple js good! 🎉

Bed or place is a great cue but it needs to built in stages. Check out part 1 for the go-to part bc that’s where everyone should start. Once you have the go to then you can start layering in Duration, Distance and distractions. ONE at a time!!

Always working to your dogs level of success not pushing them to fail. If they’re struggling go back to where they were successful and wrk there for 3 days to a week.

Park walks > neighborhood walks every time!!

Better for you and the dog! More enjoyable and relaxing as they should be. It’s not about steps it’s about sniffs!
Park walks are better because
🌳the offer more decompression, space from triggers.
🌳more interesting and different sniffs to mentally stimulate the dog
🌳wider variety of stimuli at a distance you can work comfortably Or Avoid.
🌳nature is good for you.

Bed or place is a useful cue. I know there’s some controversy about it around but I’m all for it when taught and used properly!

Bed/place give the dog a clear alternative behavior and a resting spot to default to. It’s useful in tons of situations from dinner time to answering the door.

Your starting point maybe obvious but it’s just reaching the dog to go to the bed, mat, crate or spot on cue.
🏁lure them on and say “bed”. Or “place” whichever you plan to use. Repeat until they start to go easier
🏁start saying bed / place and pointing - don’t get the treat until after they’re on! Now you rewarded!
Work on this repeatedly for small amounts of time until it’s fluid and easy then build distance that you send them without walking too!

More on that in a later post! Do me solid - Like, follow, share & save.

👅Licking & Chewing are important natural calming techniques your dog has in their toolbox. Give them opportunities to do these and you’ll have a greater chance of fulfilling their needs and having a calmer dog. Anytime we are feeding our dogs we have an opportunity to make them work and or look for that food, when we take advantage of that our dogs are more satisfied, fulfilled and calmer.

Lick mats and Fillable toys like the Sodapup Dog Enrichment Products toys here are great options to do that!

DM if you would like one! 💌

Reactivity training is journey and you have to find and celebrate all the wins along the way.

This training is about a dog getting more comfortable with their environment and triggers so noticing them do that in small ways rewarding those and building from there is really how we propel this training along! Wooloo has come such a long way!

If you want help with your reactive dog email me for a consultation today!
