How often have you told your dog “stop barking” and she keeps barking? Or you told your cat “stop peeing outside the litter box” and he keeps doing it. <strong>Ugh, the mess!</strong></h2> <p><span id="more-3489"></span><br /> Both the dogs and the cats <strong>ignored the word “no”</strong> and continue doing the next word – bark, pee, etc. They keep doing <strong>what you don’t want them to do!</strong> Yes sometimes pets will listen to “No” used alone because of the tone of your voice. Often, just like people, they start the unwanted behavior again.</p> <p>As pet parents, and I include myself, need to remember to <strong>tell the pets what we want them to do!</strong> So usually I remind Hobbes <strong>“good quiet”</strong> the moment he stops barking. This <strong>attention is a reward</strong> for Hobbes. And usually he is quiet!</p> <p>Have you ever had a <strong>nick name you really hated?</strong> Or have you asked people to use another name than your given name? You know, sometimes the name just doesn’t fit you.</p> <p>The same is true with <strong>pet names</strong>. Hobbes had another name when we adopted him. He hated it and asked it to be changed.</p> <p>Have you <strong>thought about your pet’s name</strong> and what your pet may think of it. I know several pets that <strong>were miserable with their names</strong> and acted out all the time.</p> <p>Years ago I knew dog named <strong>“Chaos”</strong> who lived up to her name. Recently one pet’s name was changed after years, and she is now a<strong> loving pet</strong> instead of the biter and fighter!</p> <p>Yes, words are important. Several years ago I was introduced to the book <em><strong>The Hidden Messages in Water</strong> </em>by Masaru Emoto. The photos of the crystals <span style="color: #800080;"><strong><a style="color: #800080;" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2310/2620/1600/tap1.1.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">“Do It!” and “Let’s do it!”</a></strong></span> made a huge impact on me.</p> <p><strong>It changed how I think about words.</strong></p> <p>To experience Emoto’s work with water crystals, please take a few minutes and watch this video.</p> <p><iframe title="Water, Consciousness & Intent: Dr. Masaru Emoto" width="860" height="645" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/tAvzsjcBtx8?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe></p> <p>Remember words are important to pets and people.

Do you get tense as you tell your dog to sit or to walk calmly? Does your dog have anxiety?</h2> <h2>Are you getting tense reading this? Now exhale. Yes, <strong>just exhale</strong> and <strong>feel your shoulders lower</strong>. Did you realize you were holding your breathe? Now exhale again.</h2> <p><span id="more-981"></span><br /> I share this tip with many clients and at the dog training center where I volunteer. When you exhale, you relax and you may notice a big change in your dog. Your pet picks up on your stress even when they may be causing the stress. Cats also respond well to exhales.</p> <p>I learned this tip at <strong><a title="Tellington TTouch® Services" href="https://animalbridges.com/animal-behavior-issues-arizona/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Tellington TTouch®</a> </strong>training when many dogs were barking in response to one dog barking. The instructor told everyone to exhale. We did and the dogs became quiet. Since then, I when I working with animals or feel stressed, I exhale. I found I can exhale any time and any place, even when driving in heavy traffic or in an important meeting!</p> <p>This simple way to calm your dog & resolve behavior problems is one of many tips I can teach you.</p> <ul class="ul1"> <li class="li1"><span class="s2">Does your pet <b>have pain or act scared</b> sometimes?</span></li> <li class="li1"><span class="s2">Ever wish you could <b>tell her something</b> she would understand?</span></li> <li class="li1"><span class="s2">Wish you <b>knew what he was thinking</b>?</span></li> </ul> <p class="p3"><span class="s2">Every people/pet team has unique needs. Often, a combination of approaches will serve both the client and the pet best. It really depends on each individual animal and person’s needs. All methods are gentle and loving.</span></p> <p class="p3"><span class="s2">Each session is as unique as your pet and each session with your pet can be unique from her previous sessions.</span></p> <p class="p3"><span class="s2">It’s easy to set up your sessions, just <strong><a href="http://animalbridges.com/contact/"><span class="s3">contact me here</span></a></strong> or call me at 612-237-9580.

Janet was embarrassed by her pet’s problems.</p> <p>When I met Jackson in his home, he was pacing, panting, frantically wagging his tail, and in continual motion. Janice adopted Jackson two months ago and this is his normal. I explained to Janice how to read Jackson’s body language. Suddenly, she realized she had not understood what he was trying to tell her. He was not happy and excited; he was nervous and afraid.</p> <div id="attachment_452" style="width: 160px" class="wp-caption alignleft"><a href="https://animalbridges.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/Jackson-Janice-Kuschner-calmer1-1.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-452" class="size-thumbnail wp-image-452" title="Jackson - Janice Kuschner calmer" src="https://animalbridges.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/Jackson-Janice-Kuschner-calmer1-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a><p id="caption-attachment-452" class="wp-caption-text">Jackson After A TTouch® Session</p></div> <p><span id="more-444"></span><br /> Jackson settled as I gently used <a href="https://animalbridges.com/animal-behavior-issues-arizona/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">TTouch® touches</a> on him. His breathing started to shift from panting to normal breathing. The major change came when I put a body wrap on him. Suddenly Jackson sat still and looked around the room. His breathing slowed down and his tail relaxed. Janice said, “He never does this.” During the rest of the session, Jackson was alert and calm.</p> <p>Walks were a real challenge — Jackson pulled on his leash and head collar. He also pawed the head collar. Jackson also wore a harness. So I made some adjustments. We changed from the leash with a large, heavy clip to a double-ended TTouch® leash. I taught Janice how to walk Jackson with two-points of contact. We walked out of the apartment, down a flight of stairs, out the main door, and across the street. Jackson was alert and walked with a loose leash. Everyone was happy.</p> <p>A week later, Janice said she now understands his body language better. Their walks are more relaxed. At home, Jackson asks for TTouches® when he sits in her lap. If she pets him, he licks and touches her until she does the TTouches®. Then he sits calmly. Janice is thrilled with Jackson’s calm demeanor.</p> <p>The post <a href="https://animalbridges.com/dogs-anxiety-and-excessive-barking-helped-with-ttouch/">Dog’s Anxiety and Excessive Barking Helped with TTouch®</a> appeared first on <a href="https://animalbridges.com">Prescott, AZ Animal Communicator | Animal & People Bridges</a>.</p> <div class='yarpp yarpp-related yarpp-related-rss yarpp-template-list'> <!-- YARPP List --> <h3>Related posts:</h3><ol> <li><a href="https://animalbridges.com/dogs-anxiety-was-quickly-calmed-with-ttouch-for-animals/" rel="bookmark" title="Dog’s Anxiety was Quickly Calmed with TTouch for Animals">Dog’s Anxiety was Quickly Calmed with TTouch for Animals</a></li> <li><a href="https://animalbridges.com/dog-scared-of-other-dogs-gains-confidence-with-ttouch/" rel="bookmark" title="Dog Scared of Other Dogs Gains Confidence with TTouch®!">Dog Scared of Other Dogs Gains Confidence with TTouch®!</a></li> <li><a href="https://animalbridges.com/dog-terrified-of-thunderstorms-helped-with-ttouch/" rel="bookmark" title="Dog Terrified of Thunderstorms Helped with TTouch®">Dog Terrified of Thunderstorms Helped with TTouch®</a></li> </ol> </div> ]]></content:encoded> <post-id xmlns="com-wordpress:feed-additions:1">444</post-id> </item> </channel> </rss>
