Most dog owners bring home a second dog before their first one is truly ready. It usually comes from good intentions, hoping the new dog will be a buddy, playmate, or even a bit of a teacher. But as trainers, we know how that story often unfolds … ❗️Any existing training struggles tend to double (because now there are two dogs!) ❗️Things like barking, reactivity, or overexcitement often spread to the new addition ❗️And the owner suddenly feels overwhelmed, unsure how to handle the new level of c

1. Your dog is not protective of you. True protectiveness looks calm and confident, not barking, lunging, or growling. What you’re seeing is reactivity, and that’s something we need to address in training. 2. If your dog won’t take treats outside, that’s a problem you need to take seriously. It doesn’t mean they’re not food motivated, it means they’re stressed. When a dog refuses food, it’s a clear sign the situation feels too hard for them and they need our help to cope. 3. Mental stimulation i
