Bringing out the best in a cat or dog is a hands-on task. Seeing it in a video is often better than reading it. My goal with these videos is to make behavior management easier to understand and implement.
We love our pets like little people in furry suits – that’s the way I feel about mine. But if we’re going to get the calm behavior we want we need to speak their language. That includes predictability. If your dog has an anxiety problem – like so many people, that pupster needs a reliable structure. I know you can do this. Believe it or not, we’re actually smarter than our dogs.

Dogs need to spend time doing dog stuff. They are natural scavengers. They need to use their brains, mouths, and paws to survive. Food-dispensing toys and puzzles keep these little devils occupied because they stimulate their brains. My puppy Mick is working his lunch loose from a Twist & Treat toy.

A dog can act out in embarrassing, destructive, or even dangerous ways. If you could just teach them to stop those bad behaviors! Training can help but you’ll need to understand the problem in order to bring out the best.
