    The Secrets of Engaging Your Dog Even If Everything Is a Distraction | The Canine Decoded Show #6

    In today's busy world, dog owners need to be open to learning new ways of interacting with their pets as they face more and more challenging situations. Engagement with dogs is critical in ensuring safety and promoting good behavior. However, distractions in the environment can make this challenging. To overcome this, finding ways to capture and maintain your dog's attention, regardless of the distractions around you, is essential. Obedience and food are often not enough to re-engage a dog that is focused on environmental triggers. In this episode, I dive into the concept of attention, how focus is computed in dog's brain, and what owners can do to create unbreakable focus no matter where they are. By being open to learning and trying new methods, dog owners can achieve greater engagement and a stronger bond with their pets, anywhere and anytime. #TheCanineDecodedShow #dogbehavior #caninescience #engaged dog #obedience #dogtraining #dogprofessional Social: Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/caninedecoded Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/groups/reactiveandanxiousdogs FREE Masterclass: https://my.demio.com/ref/ZmcmHu0vv4jETFhG Website - https://caninedecoded.com

    11 Elements of Leash Reactivity That No-one Talks About Part 2 | The Canine Decoded Show #5

    Leash reactivity in dogs refers to a dog's tendency to become very reactive when they are on a leash and encounter other dogs, people, or animals. This can manifest as excessive barking, lunging, pulling on the leash, and other aggressive behaviors. Leash reactivity can be caused by various factors, including fear, frustration, arousal, and a lack of training or socialization. It is not only one of the most common but also the most complex behavior in dogs. Many dog owners and professionals ask for more insights into this behavior. This episode is part two, where I discuss eleven elements of leash reactivity. Understanding these elements can accelerate any training and promote healthier behaviors while maintaining a happy pup. #TheCanineDecodedShow #dogbehavior #caninescience #personalprotectiondog Social: Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/caninedecoded Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/groups/reactiveandanxiousdogs FREE Masterclass: https://my.demio.com/ref/ZmcmHu0vv4jETFhG Website - https://caninedecoded.com

    Behavior and your dog's brain Part 2 | The Canine Decoded Show #2

    Many people are familiar with the idea of operant conditioning as a means of teaching dogs behaviors, but few realize the important role that neuromodulators play in this process. Neuromodulators, such as dopamine and serotonin, help to reinforce and amplify signals in the brain. Therefore, when a dog is successfully rewarded for performing a behavior, the release of these substances strengthens its neural pathway and increases its likelihood of repeating that behavior in the future. However, it's not just during training sessions that these chemical signals come into play - they also play a crucial role in everyday interactions with the environment. In this episode, we discuss how learning happens every single moment, leading to wanted or unwanted behaviors and how you can optimize your training approach to rehab challenging behaviors.
