9/22/2021

1 Comment

 

It's been nearly a year since I published the Anchor the Dog™ course online.... 

It's hard to believe so much time has passed.

I wanted to let you know.....I've re-created the demonstration video in the program and made it even better. MUCH Better!

There's lots of new footage showing more dogs of all types and ages doing Anchor the Dog™.

I'd love to hear what you think- send me a message and let me know how Anchor the Dog has been making changes for you AND your dog. And feel free to ask me any questions about it-

As a bonus, I'll reply to each comment personally with some tips and suggestions to make your course experience even better.

9/11... 20 Years Later ❤️

9/21/2021

0 Comments

 

As much as we LOVE our dogs and the amazing work they do in the FEMA system (and for search and rescue in general!) they are a small part of the whole process.

FEMA National Urban Search & Rescue Teams (US&R)

This video is something a little different to share. It shows the many aspects of the entire 80 person team involved with a mission. I'm pulled to social media like a moth to the flame this time of year. I've been a Canine Search Specialist for almost 25 years now... almost half a lifetime- A HUGE part of who I am is this... and the trainer I am today is a result of many of these shaping forces in life.

So many memories and the memories of others posted here to share on FB....take me back to this time 20 years ago. Not just the terrible day of the 11th but to the months and months afterward- the shock, the anger, the recovery, the love, the compassion. A piece of every one of us changed in some way...

People always talk about "where you were on 9/11". I've spent a lot of time lately thinking about how much the tragedy of 9/11 has affected my life and the lives of everyone. 

Penn Vet Working Dog Center- Video

Picture

We are proud to share our Center’s video that commemorates the 20th Anniversary of September 11, 2001, and inspired the incredible work that we do every day.

Here's a wonderful tribute video by Penn Vet Working Dog Center creator Dr. Cindy Otto, DVM Ph.D., who was our veterinarian with PATF1 who worked the night shift that first week.... 

my partner and best friend is Logan the bi-color German Shepherd)

What has affected you most after 20 years? Comment here or post on FB page if you'd like to share.

Happy Valentine's Day! Is love in the air for your Pups?

- from the last newsletter message, build on your learning - how do you think the pup on the right feels about this new possible love- what does he say with his eyes? .....and his licking.... and this is much more subtle but look how he's also leaning away a bit too.
He's really not sure about this, is he? His gal is being a little too pushy-

Harmony is all about creating calmness
 
Where there is calm there is harmony.
I know you're probably thinking "I get that-.... but how?- my dog is wild :) ! "

 
Here's where the "here's how" part comes in :) 

One super simple concept can change your dog's energy level tremendously- and quickly.
 
I always say- this is the EASIEST training you'll ever not do with your dog. 
 
Simply sit with your dog-
 
Anchor the Dog™
 
There's a little more to it than that of course- but in a nutshell that's the idea- 
Sit quietly with your dog
Say nothing
Do nothing
Let nothing happen
 Let calmness start to wash over your dog
 
With repetition, your dog will start to become calmer on his own- he will learn to shut himself off and relax.
 
This idea is one of our key foundation behavioral concepts.
In-person, we teach to everyone!
 
Absolutely EVERYONE!!!
 
We also have a mini-course program for it too online if you'd like to know more about it.  It's short, simple and to the point- and you start working on it right away.
 
We know you will love it if you give it a try because you will see the changes and your dog will feel them too:) 
 
Think about how nice it would be to have a calmer dog when company comes over...

...or when you stop to talk to someone and your dog doesn't go bananas...

...or when the doorbell rings, or knocks, or any of those quirky sounds that make your dog go wild...

TRAINING TIDBIT "Pack Leadership?"

12/16/2019

1 Comment

 
Picture
Chances are you've heard us say the phrase "pack leadership" more than once to you. Now, what exactly does that mean?

Do you really want me to pretend to eat out of my dog's bowl?! There are some very insignificant gestures and rituals that may seem trivial or a nuisance to us humans, but are HUGE to our furry companions. Although Fido is a distant relative to wolves, he still has primal pack instincts. 

When we have clients come to us with behavioral concerns about their dog, we always address the "why". More often than not, it all comes down to how Fido views you in the pack heirarchy. Once we guide you how to change how he views your status, then we can address the behavior.

By NO means do we want you to "alpha role" your dog- that is highly inadvisable. We want Fido to happily defer to you and respect your decisions
