I am thrilled to introduce you to an incredible canine behavioralist who has completely transformed the way I communicate with my furry friend. Her name is Sasha Armstrong, and her approach to "dog training" is nothing short of revolutionary. Sasha has mastered the art of respectful and genuine communication with dogs, teaching pet owners like myself how to truly understand and connect with our canine companions.
In her enlightening article, which you can read in full here, Sasha dives into some common dog training mistakes that many pet owners make. One of the biggest mistakes, she explains, is the concept of "dog training" – commanding, demanding, and punishing for bad behavior. But here's the truth: dogs don't understand human language. Instead, they communicate through energy and the weight we carry behind our words and actions.
Sasha advocates for what she calls the "Inner Alpha Method," a compassionate approach to leading and rewarding our dogs. By establishing ourselves as calm and confident leaders in our canine's eyes, we can create harmony and deep connection with them. This method is crucial for addressing common behavioral issues like separation anxiety, excessive barking, or jumping on guests.
Through Sasha's teachings, my fiancé and I have learned to shift our perspective and treat our dog, Bear, with the kindness and respect he deserves. Instead of punishing him for his behavior, we now focus on rewarding the positive and leading with love. The transformation in our relationship with Bear has been truly remarkable.
