TOPIC - Loosen Up, Be Flexible And Relax!

OFF 

This will be our last post for the Year 2017.

Hereby wishing all 

AN AWESOME & FANTASTIC NEW YEAR!

LET'S WELCOME THE 2018 WITH A POSITIVE SPIN!

Boss: You are late !

Employee: It is only 9:20 am. I was driving my girlfriend to university, and got stuck in traffic.

Boss: works starts at 9:00am – be here or else !

Employee: ok, but then you will have to drive your daughter each morning yourself.

If you can be relax and be flexible, your employees will be happy and productive. You will be happier yourself.

These attitudes are perfect when it comes to dog training. Do not be critical. Do not be hard on your dog and do not be hard on yourself. Be flexible, be realistic and relax. Take a deep breathe if you hit a snag. Disengage from training, spend time grooming, playing or spending time just 'doing nothing' but just hang out together.

Enjoy the progresses with your dog, it's the personal time both your dog and you are sharing in learning. This bond is unbreakable.

There is a training phenomenon, where the process of transferring of memory from conscious mind into the sub-conscious mind. This is also known as the process where our memory are being transfer from our short term memory storage to our long term memory storage. During this process, you might see some losses in memory but eventually memory will be back and it become better.

However in Reward-Based Techniques, if you chooses to continue to reinforce these behaviours, it will be our second nature. Just like any top athletics, practice, practice, practice, it will be become a habit ... Not being perfect, as it's a on-going progress...

Be flexible, be trusting, be empowering.

As always, have fun & stay positive!
