One Paw at a Time

Look at these amazing pups go! Four month old Skye and Tika (Tika Retriever, Skye Pointer) are doing an excellent job with their walking! Not only is everyone able to enjoy the walk together but both parents are so happy to have this control with the girls, and to be able to take them on adventures together! Look at this amazing video I was sent of their latest outing together! Yes I am very proud! Keep up the good work! ✨💞

When I see my grandfather out and enjoying his good days it brings so much joy to my family and myself. Balto stayed home with my mom this weekend for company and protection and while they were out doing some yard work, I was sent this video of my Poppy having a good time playing ball with Balto 💞 Always love moments like these ✨

Little Tika had a whole new confidence this week! When we first started lessons, this girl was pretty timid, and also quite unsure of myself. Now that she is understanding her obedience, and what is expected, it is much easier for her to trust and respect the handling. Look at that happy girl! From a dog who would plant herself solid on the sidewalk and zigzag everywhere, to now a happy, confident girl, looking to the handler for her guidance! Build your relationship and earn trust and respect! That’s what it’s all about! Becoming a team!🔥

Skye had a fantastic lesson and after her and her dad showed me how she was doing with fetch! So proud of this little girl! Not only is she tracking the toy well, she is bringing it back to the handler, dropping the toy and allowing the toy to be picked up and game starts again! Skye will be learning to be a hunting dog as well so this is the start of her retrieval training. Great work guys keep it up! ✨🔥

Look at Pearl go! We worked on Pearl’s impulse control in class, and she did absolutely spectacular! Look at her resisting the urge to run after Drako! Pearl was told to go to her place and stay, and with the distraction of my boy running behind her, she took a quick look, but did not come off, and then redirected immediately back to her mom! I have no problem if the dogs observe some thing that goes on around them, but they must resist the impulse to act on a negative behavior! Look at her take a quick look, and then refocus! That’s what it is all about! Good decisions! Well done team! ✨

🐾Drooling and begging for Charleton Chews ! 🐾 The One Paw pack and all our daycare guests LOVE these treats! They are all natural and come in many different flavours. One Paw has been supplying and using Charleton Chews for quite some time and the dogs cannot get enough! We sell them at our training classes but you can also order to pickup with your dog after their daycare stay with us! Check out their flavours on their website! 🥓 To inquire you can message myself or Charleton Chews! www.charletonchews.com

Meet little Samoyed puppy Casper! Casper has started his training journey! We are starting him out on basic behaviours and learning his daily routine. We also introduced his new training leash and how to look to the handler for direction. Stark also got to meet the puppy and give him a nice first interaction. It’s best to teach the dogs to be neutral rather than pushy as a puppy and let the relationship grow and develop naturally. Teaching him proper social cues and behaviours will set him up for success in the future. Super excited to watch this little bean grow! 🥰a

Moon has come such a long way with his reactivity! Not only were we able to go for a nice walk together with the dogs but we also passed by quite a few others and he tackled it very well! We had one little reaction, but Meghan handled it extremely well, and it only lasted a few seconds! He was not trying to bite at her or control the leash! Super win! Keep up the fantastic work team! ☀️

Arthur is learning to hold position while distractions are present! Here we are working on him holding a sit position while Drako runs by. He does a spectacular job and is coming along great with his impulse control! So proud of this team and their progress in only two sessions! ✨

Intermediate class was a lot of fun! The dogs learned some new skills including their stand, tried the wobble board for balance training and limb awareness and then Brenda took Finn for a spin on the dog walk! Super proud of these dogs, and how far they have come with training! The fact we can work with these dogs off leash in the arena, and they stay focussed with their handlers is amazing! ✨

Rebecca did agility with her previous dogs and after Hershey’s lesson tonight, she wanted to see how he would do on some of the equipment. He had an absolute blast! With supervision it is great to let the dogs figure out some new things! Look at that happy boy and owner! 🥰

Skye is coming along well with her training! We are only three lessons in, and she is doing a fantastic job with her foundation! Here we are starting to introduce walking and leash communication. Teaching her how to position herself and look to the handler for guidance. Position changes such as stop and turn and finding her pace with the handler. She does absolutely fantastic, and she is picking up well on her training! ✨

Finn and Indy rocking their box walk! This exercise helps with confidence and coordination with our dogs. Being able to move and place each foot individually across the ladder of boxes. This really gets the dogs thinking, and working their brains! Absolute rockstars!🥰

Indy having some tug time during class! After doing a phenomenal down stay, she was rewarded with some tug! Katy has been working well with her outs as well and she is doing phenomenal! Love seeing my teams having fun and enjoying training! Even through all the slobber and nibbles! 😅🥰

Appa coming in hot out of the tunnel! Biggest smile on his face after today’s class! He had so much fun working on his confidence and relationship with his handler🥰

Griz tackling long distance recall like a pro! Always love to do some running exercises with the dogs to get them loose and wind down! So beyond proud of this boy’s progress!✨🥰

Joy tackled the dog walk today like a champ! Super proud of this girl!🥰

Look at Indy and Finn go! Our intermediate class is really coming along great! Indy is practising following with Katy off the leash, and listening to commands while Finn is doing a long distance down stay off leash! With everyone walking around doing their own thing, both of the dogs do absolutely fantastic! Super proud of these teams!
