Want better check-ins on walks? Reward some of the ones your dog offers without being called. A glance back, slowing down with you, or choosing to come closer can all be worth reinforcing. You don't have to wait until you need their attention. #dogtrainingtips
If your dog keeps choosing the same behaviour you don't want, ask what ELSE is available to them in that moment. A clearer, easier option is often more useful than repeating what not to do. #dogtrainingtips

If your dog dislikes having their harness put on, practise the tiny pieces when you aren't about to leave: show it, reward interest, put it away. Rehearsing without the pressure of “we need to go now” can make the routine much easier. #dogtrainingtips
Healthy dog play isn't nonstop play. I look for back-and-forth movement, pauses and whether both dogs keep choosing the interaction. A longer pause or some ground sniffing can be a good moment to check whether your dog wants to continue or take a break. #dogtrainingtips

Don't wait for a real visitor to practise door behaviour. Open and close the door, step into the hallway, come back in, and reward calm check-ins while nothing important is happening. Easier reps give your dog something familiar when the real doorbell rings. #dogtrainingtips
One easy recall habit: sometimes call your dog just to give them something good, then let them go right back to what they were doing. Coming to you shouldn't always mean the fun ends. #dogtrainingtips

A dog can feel worried AND make a good choice. :) Reinforcement doesn't have to erase the emotion first..
Reward what they're still capable of doing, keep the situation manageable,and make things easier when they need you to! #dogtrainingtips

A dog taking a treat doesn't automatically mean they're comfortable, and refusing one doesn't automatically mean they're stressed. But a CHANGE from what's normal for that dog can be useful information.
Then food can become reinforcement once they're ready to learn. #dogtrainingtips
One behaviour in isolation doesn't always tell you much.
The CHANGE does.
If your dog was checking in easily and suddenly can't as the environment gets harder, don't automatically demand more focus.
The environment may need to get easier first. #dogtrainingtips
If your dog keeps getting an exercise wrong, don't just repeat it louder.
Make the situation easier and give them a chance to succeed. :) Training should help your dog discover the right answer, not repeatedly remind them they're wrong. #dogtrainingtips
Before deciding your dog is “difficult,” look at what they're being asked to cope with.
Sometimes behaviour improves when we stop asking only how to change the dog and start asking what we can change around them too. #dogtrainingtips
Teaching a puppy to “sit” and “stay” takes patience and repetition. What worked for your pup?
