Deborah tells you about a news story that at first seemed like a nice dog was attacked by a man with a machete, but then as facts came to light it may be that the dog scared the man with barking. Either way, the incident was brutal and almost cost the dog his life and could have been avoided by common sense. Deborah helps you to understand the dog’s perspective and how you can diffuse the situation should you get barked at by a loose dog on a trail. How voice matters when teaching dogs and step by step how to get your dog to come to you at the off-leash dog park. To cone or not to cone?
Deborah puts a cone collar on herself (see photo) to understand better and walk a mile in their paws plus tips about choosing the right cone collar. 98 degrees in Florida so the dogs need your help keep their paws from burning and to stay cool and hydrated. Avoid peak Sun hours for dog exercise.
