Crate Training Troubleshooting

1/25/2022

0 Comments

 
Happy #trainingtiptuesday! We're going to be talking about crate training and some tips on how to do it. First off, we wish we could tell you that there is a nice, quick, simple, cookie-cutter method for easy crate training. Unfortunately, there isn't. The reason for this is that every dog is different. Dogs are living beings and just like humans, they have different personalities, different ways of learning, different things that scare them, and different things that motivate them. This is why it is so important to train the dog in front of you. Just because your previous dog was able to learn crating easily and now you're frustrated because your puppy doesn't like it, you shouldn't be upset and expect the puppy to be the same as your old dog. But I digress, that is a topic for another day. If you search our Facebook page and look for the word “crate” you will find a few different posts with amazing resources on how to start out crate training and some of the many benefits of crating.

2021 in the Rearview

Another year has come and gone! It was definitely a busy one for us here at Canine Coaching. 

We started 2021 slow due to COVID restrictions meaning we had to continue to teach online classes. When COVID first brought everything to a grinding halt in early 2020 it caused us a bit of panic on how we would continue to help our clients. We decided to see it as a blessing in disguise as we had been talking about overhauling our virtual content for a while and this was the push we needed. We jumped in head first and completely redid our online content. While this wasn’t ideal for everyone we were so happy that we had amazing online content to share. We are now extremely proud to offer in depth interactive classes for Obedience and Scent Detection and have gotten really happy feedback from those who have taken the classes.

Real Talk - Rusty Skills

10/20/2021

We would like to take a second to share this video with you and have a little bit of “real talk”. In this video, we were doing a little bit of practice obedience work with our 3 dogs. We were working on everybody listening to commands together as well as separately when their name was called.  You will notice that Viking was pushing the limits a little bit, requiring a sterner command as well as having me repeat myself. ​​

Transitioning to being Home Alone

As September creeps upon us and things slowly have been returning to more of a “pre covid” normal, many dogs will soon be returning to days spent without their humans around or experiencing this for the first time. Adults are returning to work, summer vacation and days off are coming to an end, and children are returning to the classroom for another year of learning. With this happening some dogs will experience stress and some may show signs of Separation Anxiety. Hopefully they do not have a wild time like Kevin in the classic Home Alone.
