FOCUS


Dogs are eager to please and very much in the moment. Dogs need physical exercise, choices and affection. Understanding how to communicate with dogs through relaxed confident energy, and shaping activity, makes all the difference! Focus is the foundation for all other positive behaviors.

Loose Leash Walking


Are you constantly demanding behavior without the result you want? Can you imagine walking calmly with your dog or dogs, without constant prompting? Even with distractions in the environment? How about walking calmly with six or more dogs? This is a daily occurrence at Heart of Caregiving Pets and can easily be in your home and neighborhood, also.

Feeding Value


Dogs, similar to humans, have different preferences for food and tolerance of social settings. Specific ages and breeds may represent certain behaviors, however, it is important to know what brings value for each dog. Consistently rewarding the desired behavior, while ignoring undesirable behavior is much more fun, then being stressed and negative.

What Is Leadership and Why is it Important?


When a dog does not feel confidence and trust in their family, they feel the need to protect or be "on guard". This may cause unwanted behavior of leash pulling, relentless barking, biting or jumping on people, inappropriate urination and more.
