Welcome to the DBI Blog
Welcome to the DBI Blog! We are excited to create a platform to share fun and informative dog-related content with you every month. We’ll be posting on the blog on the second and fourth Monday of each month - we want you to start out your week on a high note!
Here’s what you can expect:
A deeper look into what we do as Behavior Analysts. We’ll talk about Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) generally, but also take deeper dives into how and why we define and measure dog behavior, why we always assess challenging behaviors before jumping into treatment, and some fun around the dog sports we’re exploring.
Social justice. We recognize that small businesses are not neutral but are part of the community, and we want our community to know what we stand for. We also recognize the importance of impact over intent, and that having good intentions is not enough. To that end, we will explore on the blog ways in which we try to support local organizations, and to make our services (and dog training in general) as accessible as possible.
Reviews of the books we’re reading, podcasts we’re listening to, and courses we’re taking. Continuing education is important to us!There’s always something new to learn - and we would love to share what is helping us grow.
Reviews of the products that we find helpful in our lives with our dogs.
Enrichment suggestions. Both Beacon and Kerby have some unique and limiting needs right now. Join us as we brainstorm ways to keep them occupied both during challenging times like when movement is limited (Beacon) and diets are restricted (Kerby), and just in the course of our day-to-day lives.
We hope you’ll find the DBI blog a source of information and inspiration. As always, we welcome feedback on any of our posts and how we’re doing in general to ensure our services support our values.
