No animal needs a heavy hand. Animals need empathy, compassion, and understanding of how dogs learn!
We can all advocate to change the way we teach and communicate with our dogs! It starts with understanding a canine’s brain.
In order to create a real change in behavior in our dogs, we need to change the way they “feel” about their environment and triggers. All dogs learn at their own pace, they are individuals seeking connection, safety and understanding! We owe it to them to not set them up for failure or to need a correction.
