I had a fun encounter with my sister’s dog this past week. It gave me an opportunity to teach my sister something interesting. Sometimes the best thing we can do to improve our dog’s behaviour is less. And sometimes the best thing to do…is nothing at all. Our dogs may be rewarded by our attention for certain behaviours even if that attention is intended to scold them or show our disapproval. We need to be careful what we reward especially when we intend the opposite!
A transcript of the main text of Do LESS To Get A Better Dog is available at the Life As A Human online magazine website. You can visit Life as a Human to find this and other articles.
