For those of you that have worked with me you'll know I'm all about consent training, and for those who haven't, you're about to find out! 😃
🐾
What is consent training? = You are teaching your dog to be comfortable with what you are doing and conditioning (training) your dog to do a specific thing in order to facilitate doing the procedure or activity.
🐾
This can be useful for many things such as:

-wiping paws after a muddy walk
-administering medication such as ear drops
-checking paws for cuts/thorns
-teeth cleaning
-towel drying
-grooming
-nail trimming
-being health checked by a vet
+so many more!

This video shows my deaf dog Bentley having his teeth cleaned. Bentley is a dog who does not like to be touched in many places, particularly inside his mouth. He has bitten many times in the past when he has not felt listened to or has been forced into a situation to have something like this done. Due to Bentley having oral issues as he ages and needing his mouth regularly checked, we've practiced teeth cleaning training sessions for many years; the end result is this, a dog who will willingly accept me entering his mouth (even though he'd still rather I didn't!)

Consent training can take time and usually means breaking the stages of the task down into smaller chunks in order to get to the end goal. Some dogs may never be completely comfortable with certain things and therefore will not be able to be trained to have a consent behaviour to give. Nevertheless, much can be done for many situations. Clicker training is a great tool for breaking down dog behaviours.

Do some observing to see if your dog seems wary of any procedure that you do together regularly. You may be surprised to find out that the body language of your dog shows a hesitation for something that you maybe hadn’t noticed before. If that’s the case, consider training an “I’m Ready” behaviour to help your dog become more comfortable with that procedure or activity. In the process, you will likely also improve your relationship with your dog. Train with kindness, always, every day 🧡
