Monday Momentum
One of the biggest mistakes we make in dog training is believing every session has to be long.
I do it sometimes because I forget that it is not rocket science. We are not trying to be perfect. We are not aiming for the Olympics.
We simply need five minutes.
Five minutes of calm practice is enough.
Five minutes of choosing to settle instead of reacting.
Five minutes of rewarding your puppy for checking in with you.
Five minutes of walking together without rushing.
Five minutes of quietly watching the world go by from a park bench.
And we only need to pick one to do.
While these little moments may not feel significant today, dogs don’t learn because we occasionally do something extraordinary.
They learn because we repeatedly do ordinary things, well.
This week, don’t worry about training for perfection.
Simply find five minutes.
Five calm, connected minutes with your dog.
Those moments have a remarkable way of becoming a lifetime of understanding.
Happy Monday Peeps and Pups!!
What’s one small thing you and your dog will practise this week?
🌸 A little social learning session with Maali and Willow.
At five months old, Maali is full of enthusiasm, curiosity, and puppy energy. Willow, meanwhile, was the perfect demonstration dog, showing calmness, patience, and beautifully appropriate social skills throughout the session.
One of the biggest misconceptions about puppy socialisation is that it means letting puppies run around and play with every dog they meet.
In reality, socialisation is about learning how to interact appropriately with the world around them.
Sometimes that means playing.
Sometimes that means observing.
Sometimes that means learning to pause, listen, and respond to another dog’s signals.
Today, Maali practised all three.
And Willow reminded us that steady, socially skilled adult dogs are some of the best teachers a young puppy can have. 🌿🐾
