Taking Control

It is a natural instinct to feel insecure or nervous when you enter new situations with an undiciplined animal. Your dog only knows two things, lead or follow. They won't follow insecure nervousness and then will act out as the leader by growling, barking, and even becoming aggressive. It is important that you embrace those insecurities, weaknesses and fears and try to learn and grow from them. Only when we connect with those emotions can we focus on our strengths and truly understand who we are as individuals and gain the courage to become stronger willed than your animal. There are a lot of dominant breeds of dogs, and even the smallest breed can take over if your nervous or insecure. That's usually when I get the call. " help me! my dog is out of control " We all have it in us to take control. And I believe to truly connect with others, and your pet, you need to KNOW yourself first. You can do it for yourself, and your dog. Relax, and KNOW that your in control.
Please remember to have your pet spay or neutered.
