Do you have a small dog? Do you wonder how on earth you’re supposed to reward them without filling up their tummies or hurting your back in the process? In this episode, Dr Tom Mitchell dives into the clever ways you can train and play games with your tiny companion (and he’d know, as the owner of two tiny dachshunds!). We’ll be looking at everything from how to portion out rewards to avoid overfeeding to smart strategies that keep your sessions short, sweet and effective. You’ll get ideas on how to teach your small dog to catch and how to make being picked up feel like a game instead of a punishment. And if you don’t have a tiny dog, there are some tricks and tips in there for you, too! ................ Whether your dog is unpredictable with other dogs or predictably bad… Whether it looks like freezing, barking, lunging or running away… Whether you are just starting out on your dog-owning journey or your dog has been labelled as having a “behaviour problem”… … this episode is for you and is going to give you huge insights!
