Exercise Smarter Not Harder, Part I
Insider secrets to exercising your dog and truly getting a calm pup.
What do you mean by exercising smarter? One thing that we all know or for the most part we've all heard is that a tired dog is a good dog, right? Exercising is a crucial element to creating a well rounded, calm and collected adult dog or puppy. However, unfortunately, I think people take that too much to heart. This is especially true when you have a hyperactive dog or a very excitable dog or you have behavior problems such as mouthing, jumping, leash pulling or nipping.
Brie Blakeman, CPDT-KA, is a certified professional dog trainer in Portland Oregon and a member of the Association of Professional Dog Trainers. Alongside running her own business Noble Woof Dog Training, Brie teaches at The Oregon Humane Society, helping clients understand and address behaviors like separation anxiety, hyperactivity and reactivity. When she’s not teaching, Brie and her Siberian Husky Yuka enjoy the sport of bike-joring, and trick training as well as performing behavior chains for the occasional TV commercial.

The Wag Out Loud pawdcast is supported by listeners like you! I started the show as a passion project that would help all of us make well-informed decisions for our dogs’ health and well-being. After many amazing guests, intriguing topics and incredible feedback, I realized the WOL pawdcast is exactly what I wanted to do. I am mission-driven and work hard to produce the best possible show I can, and I trust that if you find value in my work and have the means, you will choose to contribute. It would not be possible to consistently produce a quality show without the listener support that I receive. Thanks to all of the dog lovers out there!
