I had been thinking for a long time actually about writing about how my lessons from dog training impact human relationships also. In this week’s Cincinnati Business Courier, I have a guest column about some of those lessons for management. You can read it online here (you will not be able to see the full version for several months unless you have a subscription) or it is below. (Click on the image to enlarge it)
Dog sniffing walks are decompressing walks that promote relaxation and engagement. There are so many benefits to incorporating these into your dog’s enrichment.
This is the story of one family, and how I taught them to use a success station as a management tool for creating safety between their toddler and their family dogs. In this case, their success stations was using dog gates when needed. It is one of numerous strategies we are putting into place to lower stress, increase quality of life, and strengthen relationships. In their example, I share why it is important to teach your dog a positive association with management.
