Troublesome Terriers Dec 27, 2021

Show notes

Boxing Day Sale is on at 40% at AbsoluteDogs until New Year Day and we wanted to share some of our insights into terriers... something we dive into in our AbsoluteTerrier badge.

Does your dog have an inner terrier? For some, your dog is terrier through and through! In today's podcast, we are talking terriers and every dog that may struggle with movement such as cars, ankles, other dogs and other furry animals, and so much more. They also struggle with over-excitement, being handled, restrained, and more. Terriers can be less forgiving in training, and yet there's a game for that!

If you have a terrier and that includes those bully breed terriers like the Amstaff, or a dog with an inner terrier, check out our Absolute Terrier badge. Many happy owners of Huskies, Collies, Mixed Breeds, and more have already expressed delight at the content of the Absolute Terrier badge. Jump into today... and if it's not terrier, don't worry - we have so many other online training courses available right now, all 40% off for a limited time.

Confidence is king! You can never gift your dog enough confidence. You can never be over aware of confidence and it can be the greatest focus you can give your dog's training plan.

Most behaviour struggles come about due to a lack of confidence; this includes dog-dog interaction, visitors arriving in your home, separation related behaviours, and more. Lack of confidence can lead to your dog questioning those situations and also questioning their own responses and feelings associated with those situations.

In today's episode, we cover some super top tips on how you can boost the confidence in your dog's decisions, as well as their overall outlook in situations that have previously been laced in conflict or worry. Boost your dog's confidence with our Absolute Confidence course, located at www.absolute-dogs.com.

Surgery happens!
In this podcast episode, we are making sure that you are prepared for a period of post-surgery so that you can ultimately support your dog in the best way possible.
You want to try to minimise as many things as possible that your dog will need to work through after surgery, the better prepared you both will be.
What can you do pre-surgery to optimise your experience post-surgery? Wouldn't it be amazing to feel prepared, rather than lost as far as what you might need and what your dog might be?
Check out our Separation Struggles episode here mentioned in this super episode that also talks on Jumping and Attention Seeking.

There are two types of training…

Training in the Situation – trying to teach your dog in the moment, when they’re behaviour is undesirable and at its height.
Training FOR the situation – preparing your dog for the situation beforehand so they have the skills to handle the situation without rehearsing the behaviour you are looking to stop and for which you are seeking a solution.

It’s important to know what skills you need to work on so that you can prepare yourself and your dog for the situation. Knowing the ingredients so that you can discover your dog’s recipe for behaviour transformation is so, so key. We dive into this in today’s episode!
