@thinkingcanine: One of my goals is to have dogs who can go places and do things. I work on rewarding calm behavior out and about. I find that obsessing over focus and obedience often creates highly amped stressed out dogs. You’ll see in videos of dogs who are constantly being micromanaged that they are consistently agitated and panting. While I do allow Neon a ton of freedom to interact with people and dogs I also control her and expect calm behavior. I reward her for noticing things in the environment with calm behavior. How about you? #dogbehavior #DogTraining #dogsocialisation
working with a reactive adolescent rescue so we're starting from -50 but we're trying!

Are the pouches applesauce? Yogurt? We use treats from Costco that are soft so we can give him a little bit or a whole chunk

Yes ☺️💕love it! When I’m chatting with neighbors outside or something my dogs will settle and just lay down and wait for me, at the register (pet store) they will sit and wait for me to pay for their treats lol no command no verbal cues they just do it ✨
