I cannot tell you how many times clients have recoiled or been ashamed to tell me that they let their dogs on the sofa or in their bed for fear that I am going to going to turn into the big green monster who smashes. So let me tell you all a (not so secret) secret…. 🐾 My dog sleeps on my sofa ! 🐾 My dog sleeps on my bed ! 🐾 My dog seems to have a bed (if not 2) in every single room in the house ! 🐾 My dog dog gives super sloppy kisses in the face ! 🐾 My dog walks (sometimes, but usually behind engrossed in a scent or pretending to be a cow eating a blade of grass) ahead of me on walks! 🐾 I buy my dog special things when I'm out because I think he will like it! (Duuuuuh) ...SO STOP PANICKING OR BEATING YOURSELVES UP FOR COMPLETELY NORMAL THINGS!! You are: 🐾 Allowed to love your dogs and let them enjoy themselves 🐾 NOT spoiling them by letting them do these things 🐾 NOT letting them rule the roost by letting them do these things Don’t let “ that TikTok trainer ” or “ that bloke on TV ” make you think that you are doing anything wrong by letting your dogs do any of these things IF YOU WANT THEM TO ! If you don’t want your dog to do any of the above, THIS IS ALSO FINE TOO ! But don’t let it be because of “dominance”, “spoiling” or “ruling the roost”. Let it be due to your personal preference 😊 (Smelly frenchie arses are absolutely a good enough excuse not to have them with their bums in your face on your bed 🤣🤣🤣) And yes TikTok trainer, I see you spying 🤪🤪 #forcefreetraining #forcefreeasfuck #frenchiesofinstagram #ilovemydog #dilligaf #supportsmallbusiness #dogbehaviourist #bullybreeds #loveyourpets
