The Durable Dog Training

10/05/2023

If you "purchased" your dog from a breeder then you chose that breed. You had better acknowledge and accept certain traits and update your education on how to meet their needs. Also you bought them, therefore you are their owner not this bu****it term "pawrent" or "guardian" , with that means you need to own their behavior and decisions because if they make poor choices you have not educated them on the correct ones. Hold yourself accountable to make them better.

CLOSED SUNDAYS. To all clients previous and future. I try to accommodate your questions, concerns, want for updates and check ins on your dog. I have a family that requires my time and attention and the day that is reserved for them is Sunday. So if i do not respond or communicate with you on that day do not take offense. There may be a trainer out there that will give you access to them any time you need it, I am not that trainer and understand if I am not good fit because of it. Enjoy your family on this long weekend, Happy training.

Sasha is a previous board and train. She is back just for boarding. Her mom wants her to continue on to advanced obedience. When she first came to us i was afraid to drop the leash as she was a flight risk. Awesome to see what she is looking like with her parents continuing to put in the hardwork.

Easton Has been with us for 10 days now. His heeling is coming along, almost ready to start going on school trips out and about. We have also started working some of his swing into heel positions through luring with food and cueing with body positioning.

This is Hendrix. He is a previous board and train for on leash obedience. He is staying with us for a few days and we have been having fun working off leash because of his owners commitment to the process.

One of the benefits for our board and train clients is bringing their dogs back for boarding when they need to travel or need a weekend away. As you can see Hendrix is pumped to be back and to be able to eat all the icicles.

Sometimes when your training you gotta take a break and let a snow seal be a snow seal.

Trying to help out my neighbours dog to reduce her stress. My neighbour is elderly and thus she is unable to do much with her dog aside from a loving companion inside the house. This little girl is lacking confidence and wouldn't come within 10 feet of me at first without barking and retreating.

With my neighbors blessing i went and got Odin and approached with him and put him in a sit stay and had a conversation with my neighbor and completely ignored her dog. It started with me heavily feeding him making him "touch" and "sit" for rewards. It didnt take long before her concerns lessoned, her interest peaked and she took a step towards us. I threw food on the ground to start and then eventually slowly bent down and this was the result of about 5 minutes of thoughtful engagement. We left it at that ,then and went on our way without being barked at which is usually the response we get from this little girl.

Always amazed how fast dogs can help each other when paired with the right personality traits. Obedience helps these introductions.
