@rundawggym: Some people try to argue that any stress at all is a bad thing for dogs. We argue that controlled stress that leads to an achievable goal fosters a sense of accomplishment in dogs, and builds confidence. Without confidence-building through exposure to stressful and intimidating things, dogs never develop the ability to cope with stressful situations, leaving them defenseless against a world full of unpredictable things. This leaves them with no option but to bite in pressure situations. It creates bite risks. By placing dogs into stressful situations in a controlled and coached manner, we can help that dog understand how to solve issues instead of running away. By helping them accomplish the goal we foster a sense of powerfullness and an understanding that they do not have to be afraid. The feeling of joy, accomplishment, and euphoria that follows is called "eustress." The people who claim all stress is bad will generally defend this position by saying the mental issues will manifest later, which is the easiest thing to claim and the hardest to prove. Unless of course you get to still work with the dogs later, on a regular basis. We have seen that these claims don't happen, and that years later the dogs are happy and well adjusted. Simply put, our real world experiences with hundreds of case studies are proving that the claims made by others are wrong. Challenge your dog. Help them to learn how to help themselves. Build a strong dog, mentally and physically. #rundawg #dogexercise #canineexercise #mobiledoggym #caninefitness
