Hi, I’m Jill Breitner, author of the Dog Decoder App.
Dog Decoder is recommended by many veterinarians and veterinary behaviorists, John Ciribassi DVM, DACVB, Nancy Kay DVM, Carolyn Lincoln DVM, Dave McCrystal DVM, UC Davis Veterinary Behavior Clinic. I am a dog trainer and dog body language expert, studying canine body language for almost 40 years and developed this app to help you learn more about what dogs are trying so hard to tell us.
The more you learn the safer your dog will be, the safer your family will be and the bond you create with your dog will be that much stronger. You can’t truly bond with your dog if you can’t communicate.
I created this blog to keep you engaged and teach you as much as I can. I’ll share my own stories, stories of others and you are free to share your own stories as well. We all learn from each other and no question is a stupid question. Mistakes will be made and this is how we learn.
Together we can be our dog’s advocate as their voice and create a world of happy dogs in happy families.
Did you know that 77% of dog bites are to from family and friends dogs? It is my mission with this app to prevent dog bites from ever occurring. The Dog Decoder app is ready when you need it, whether you’re at your vet with a fearful dog, the groomer with an aggressive dog or walking down the street with a reactive dog. If we can learn to read dog body language we can see that your dog is anxious, afraid and remove her from the situation way before a bite can ever happen.
Each and every blog has a message that can help you with your puppy, aggressive dog, stressed dog, teach your dog to be more confident, what steps to take when you first bring your puppy home and more. This blog is for you, your family and your dog.
