Balance your Dog

When training our dogs, we sometimes get preoccupied with matching them. They are pulling, we want to walk faster, their energy is high, so we go high, too. 

This usually encourages the behaviors that we are working on extinguishing or down-playing. 

Instead, we need to learn to balance our dogs. 

If your dogs energy is high, try going low. 

If your dog is dragging behind you on leash, put a little pep in your step to encourage some energy out of them! 
​
Be the Yin to their Yang, not the reason they go from high to sky-high.
