🐾 Training & Health Tips from the Pack! 🐾
We are always working on sharpening our skills here at Pack Healer Inc! In this clip, we’re practicing place training and boundary control using a simple blanket as a visual reference point.
Training a dog to stay on their "place" isn't just about obedience; it's a fantastic tool for building impulse control, boosting confidence, and creating a calm mindset. As you can see, consistency is key, and every little win builds a stronger bond!
⚠️ A Vital Feeding Tip for Large, Deep-Chested Breeds
Beyond mental workouts, structural health and routine are everything—especially when it comes to nutrition and safety.
For large, deep-chested dogs, managing how and when they eat is crucial to reducing the risk of Gastric Dilation-Volvulus (GDV), commonly known as bloat. To keep our pack safe, healthy, and on a consistent routine, we follow a strict seasonal feeding schedule:
☀️ Summer Schedule: Fed once a day at 6:00 PM
❄️ Winter Schedule: Fed once a day at 4:00 PM
Adjusting the feeding time helps align their digestion with shifting daylight hours and activity levels across the seasons, ensuring they have plenty of time to rest and digest before or after any major exertion.
