Not all compromises are ethical. The American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior’s Position Statement on Humane Dog Training (conclusion): “Based on current scientific evidence, AVSAB recommends that only reward-based training methods are used for all dog training, including the treatment of behavior problems. Aversive training methods have a damaging effect on both animal welfare and the human-animal bond. There is no evidence that aversive methods are more effective than reward-based method

Heel training isn’t about strict obedience or having a dog glued to your side - it’s about clear communication, mutual trust, and helping your dog feel comfortable and confident, especially when things get tricky. If you still need to teach heel - there’s a new episode on my YouTube channel today that shows you exactly where to start, plus how to take it to the streets when you’re ready: https://youtu.be/grHN_MIexVo If your dog already knows how to heel, try using it more strategically.

How you respond to barking shapes your dog’s brain, emotions, and your entire relationship. Let’s fix communication first. We recently talked about recognizing those brief, precious moments of quiet and understanding the “why” behind your dog’s barking. Today, let’s expand on that with another thoughtful, neuro-affirming way to manage barking and build better communication. Your dog’s barking isn’t defiance, it’s communication. And the way you respond directly shapes their brain, emotions, and y

To my colleagues in the animal care field: in this field, we pride ourselves on standing up for the vulnerable and the voiceless. But compassion is meaningless if it’s selective. If we speak for animals, we should speak for people too. Palestine deserves our voices. | Zak George

Balanced dog trainers call it correction. Science calls it trauma. Your dog isn’t disobedient. You’re just overwhelming them. For years, trainers who call themselves “balanced” have punished dogs for reacting to their environments instead of teaching them how to succeed in them. A dog pulls on a leash because they’re overstimulated? Jerk the collar. A dog hesitates in a busy area? Drag them forward. A dog barks at something unfamiliar? Shock them into silence. This isn’t training. It’s coercion

Is your dog telling you exactly how they want to learn? Are you listening? During a training session where I was working on “heel” with Wallace the Malinois mix using treats, Wallace stopped mid-session, walked over to my backpack, and pulled out his frisbee (see video ☝️😂) Instead of ignoring him, I followed his lead. With dogs like Wallace, play can sometimes be the most powerful reinforcer! Watch how switching from treats to frisbee completely shifted Wallace’s enthusiasm, body language, and

What is ‘balanced’ about refusing a dog consent? A dog forced into obedience is not a partner, but a hostage. The outdated mentality that dogs must be dominated, controlled, or forced into submission is still common, even championed by figures in our own profession. Trainers who mock the concept of “consent” argue that dogs have no place saying “no”, that compliance matters more than choice. This view is not only ethically flawed, it’s deeply outdated. Just because we can force a dog to obey do

Wallace doesn’t trust me yet—and that’s okay. Many so-called dog “trainers” would try to force him to comply with tools like choke chains or harsh corrections. But here’s the thing: you cannot force a dog to trust you. If I put a leash on Wallace at this moment and forced him to come near me, what do you think he might do? Might he feel defensive, or like his fears of strangers are confirmed? Might he fight back? Even if he gave up, and allowed me to force him to come near me with a leash, what

Can you get your dog’s attention whenever you ask for it? 👀 Let me know in the comments… Here are a few clips from an upcoming unreleased lesson with Wallace the Malinois! Most people think teaching a dog to focus on them takes a ton of time, but it often takes just a few minutes! This single skill is the foundation for everything — whether you’re asking your dog to leave something they want to eat, to come to you in an exciting crowded park, or to stay focused around distractions like squirrel

If we’re going to dismantle outdated pseudoscience and harmful dog training practices, we MUST show the public exactly how humane, science-based training works in the real world. Continuous rewards build behaviors fast, but carefully shifting to unpredictable (variable) reinforcement lets your dog generalize their skills, without depending on constant treats. True positive training respects your dog’s motivation, individual interests, and their right to opt out of sessions. If we want to dismant

One of the biggest reasons people struggle with loose leash walking is because they start… on a walk! Trying to train your dog while they’re in that new, exciting environment, and while you are trying to get somewhere on your walk, is a recipe for rushing and getting frustrated and not having much success. Instead, take the time to make sure your dog understands the basics of what you want them to do (walk without pulling, follow your lead, and give you their attention when you ask) somewhere th
