MYTH A tired dog is a happy dog Continual ball throwing, only taking them for walks to exhaust them, or dog park romps to ‘tire out’ our pooch is not enriching and is not meeting the needs of dogs. Problems such as over arousal, dysregulation, learned helplessness, musculoskeletal problems, behavioural issues presenting, undesired behaviours such as destructiveness, compulsive behaviours, reactivity, resource guarding, fixation, can be a result of us trying to exhaust our dog

New puppies are always an exciting and adventurous time for the entire household. Even when you think you have planned everything to be more than ready it can be unpredictable ! We have a few rules for the new little gremlins ( aka cute fluffy puppies ) in our home that help us enjoy the fun and antics. Don't feed them after midnight - Well for us its nothing after 7pm. DO get them wet - Get them accustomed early on to grooming techniques and pay attention to how they feel.
