It's Ok To Take A Break

Sometimes dog training can feel like you aren't going anywhere or even that you're going backwards.  During these times, it's ok to take a break.

Given the state of the world today, we are all big in our feelings.  There is so much on our minds and hearts.  For many, taking the time to do some training with your dog can be the break you need from it all. 

If you are dealing with aggression, reactivity, household integration or other heavily emotional things, it can feel like its all just getting piled on. 

If you are feeling the weight of it all, take a break. Or find a fun, low stakes trick to teach your dog.  Instead of training, take some time off to connect in nature together. Go do their favorite thing together.  

This is your trainer saying, its ok for you and your dog to take a little time off and come back when you're ready.  Take care of each other.
