Dogs are so funny. Penny loves dogs smaller than her and lighter colored. She loves them even more if they resemble Becky from daycare back in the day 😂 Shadow, Penny, Zeppelin & Willow were all here for a visit.
Xena however prefers the larger than her dogs and darker in color haha

Lots of colors in harnesses and hands free leashes! Start enjoying your walks together more 😉

Working on a nicer heel on leash on our walks. Two step process, one step about attention and going in your direction and second step with praise and food. I love working on leash walking! If anyone needs help 😏

Love seeing my puppy clients all grown up. Nova is a sweet girl with a few new bully like behaviors forming we are going to nip in the butt 😏 Sometimes just your environment alone, may set them up to have more herding tendencies or protective practices. I love when my clients come to see me ASAP with new behaviors popping up. The less they practice, the quicker we can get them over it and have it be a non issue.

How you start - no lense and on for every meal until they don't notice it on anymore.
Clear lense - Outside doing fun activities they love like fetch or frisbee or swimming.
Chrome or shaded lense - going on short walks with treat sessions or fun activities.
It doesn't take them long, but it is so worth it to work on and try! Xena had laser eyelid surgery three years ago and now I know better. A dog should have glasses on for long exposure to sun just like humans. Dogs who swim a lot, hang their heads out the window. In my case with Xena dogs who run in the woods all the time, one stick is all it takes.
Now she asks for them on during those cold winter windy days, where she wants to stay out longer 😍
Come on by to size your dog. We have a few in stock and can order more.

Resource guarding in dogs is very common and normal. But there is light at the end of the tunnel. Especially if you have more animals in the household, someone stole someone's meal or toys and now it's become a problem. Is your dog giving you side eyes, stiffening over their toys or food, growling, air chomping and staring fights?
Did you know resource guarding is the presence of fear of losing their valuable item. Which means if you take it away, you are part of the problem. That's okay, that's where I come in. To help you understand why and how and so you can finally have more peace in the house.
Stop waiting 3-4 years before you see a behavioral consultant, book your September lessons now! 🙏

Let your dogs chew on food items that won't chip or break their teeth! I love yak chews but I sometimes change up how I feed them and microwave half pieces 😁

Everyone got to pick their favorite flavor and size. 🤤
This week only 2/$30 no tax

Don't forget to hang out with your dogs outside and do "nothing" sometimes. ☝️❤️ We put the harnesses on and hung out on the grass. Get rid of the expectation for always getting a walk and going nuts when they come out or the opposite, fear based behaviors of not wanting the harness on. Sometimes doing less, is more.
These are our hiking harnesses usually when we hit up the beach or off leash trails. Love the material of these Hurtta harnesses, like scuba 🤿 suits.
We have two in Plumb in stock. One size 24-32" and one size 32-39" around the chest. (These are not harnesses to aid with loose leash walking, these harnesses are for dogs who know how to walk nicely on leash already or if you want them pulling while you jog, rollerblade or bike).

How was Pawlooza!? So much fun. A bit of rain on and off but the event is always spectacular. Loved seeing our clients out and about, we got second place this time for our little costume act haha third place as a model but first place in my eyes🥇
Penny loves attending and funny enough, I realized since I always train her by default she would not take a treat from anyone else 😂 This worked out perfectly because she has so many allergies and by the time someone asks they have already offered her the treat. She was sweet and half the time took the lung or liver treat, spat it out and looked at me with wide eyes... 👀"They tried to poison me, but don't worry I knew".
I can't wait to see more clients out and about at these dog events. 🤗
08/21/2024
Bring me ALL the shelter/rescue/rehabilitating dogs!!! We are only 4 lessons in and you wouldn't believe this was the same dog! Confidence out the roof, trust, kenneling on her own, almost no default fear based behaviors, no cowering or pulling on leash! When you follow my system.....good things happen to all but it's time consuming, frustrating and annoying at times 😂 But I'm here for you, on this beautiful relationship journey.

Ava did so good 😊 zoom
Harper was obsessed 🤣
Luna & Harper worked as a team ❤️
Deutz did so awesome!
Archieeeeee
I hope you ask your pup.....but are you ready to run!!!!! Halloween Lure run October 29th 10am-2pm! 🐾
Let me share my secret recipe 😜 Our girls favorite snack for when we travel or when I forget to thaw enough meat for the night 🫣 or just to sit outside together and watch squirrels run by freely, knowing they won't chase them away hahaha ****Tranceas - stuffed with raw Use any meat; we are using chicken. (Kibble and soft food is a great substitute) Add some veggies or toppers your pups may not eagerly eat 🤭 add a lot 🤫 wear gloves. Mix, stuff and I seal them, then freeze! We get ours at https://bullybunches.ca/collections/other-chews Best part is, free shipping and so many yummy options! #doggydiscoveryzone @bullybunches
So many of us think all dogs should know how to play. They either like to fetch or they don't. They like to tug or frisbee or don't. What if I told you all of those are easy to teach your pup to get into!!!! 🐾 Here is Penny. She is not a dog who likes to tug or chase or fetch. I'll show you how to teach your pup to tug with you. 🐶 Every interaction gets a reward and market. 'yes' followed by treat. Any long interaction like a second pull, holding onto it, a lot of motivation; all of these will get 2-3 treats one after the other. Go try this! 🤗 Have fun! I always end my tug session tossing the tug toy out front and encourage the pup to get it. I let them run around/interact with it for about a minute before I walk inside and end the game. This allows them to get more confident biting, playing and engaging with a toy they aren't too confident with yet. ⚽ #doggydiscoveryzone
Here is a nice video for you to see how the ball self inflates 🫣 I've had so many questions, how is it their shepherd won't ruin it? 🤣 Here is Xena modeling the Jolly Football for you, lots of chomps 🏈 #doggydiscoveryzone @jollypets
These are the shenanigans Penny pulls 🤣 very obedient, very stubborn and very clever 🤭 so she is staying in heel by choice cause she wants this Kong so bad. She thinks I'm looking straight ahead and I can't see her jump up and lick the Kong because she's still on my left side 🤣 at the end, notice her sit automatically pretending like nothing happened 🤭 #doggydiscoveryzone
Hahaha oh how I love watching dogs figure new toys out 🤩 Big Bouncy puncture resistant horse ball 🙃 #doggydiscoveryzone
Bouncy bouncy bouncy; new besties 😜 #doggydiscoveryzone
