Focus K9

Congratulations River for completing our Private School program! . River enrolled in our Get Focused program to help his owners condition him to a remote collar. River is a very sensitive dog to extra stimulation in his environment so we wanted to ensure he had a positive experience wth introducing the collar! . #yyj #yyjdogs #dogsofyyj #dogsofvictoriabc #dogsofvictoria #yyjdogtraining #teachtailortrain #victoriabc #yyjdogtrainers #dogtraining #balanceddogtraining #dogownertips #dogs #dogtrainingtips #westcoastdogtraining #puppies #dogsofinstgram#dayschoolfordogs #dogsofinstagram #victoria #traininggoals #gooddog #rescuedogofinstagram #australianshepherd #bordercollie #eskimodog

Fischer completed his Private School program with us this week! Being an intact male made it difficult for his owners to take him off leash around other dogs which we focused on during his program. We are super happy with the progress Fischer made and so are his owners! We have some upcoming spots open in June for our Private School program.

Zoey graduated from her Private School Program creating a reliable emergency stop, recall and off leash heeling! No matter what was going on was important to her owner to have honest control. Follow our stories for our Private School student progress videos! . Everyone wants reliable off leash control, but how about actually having it?

Maizie is a beautiful staffy who had severe anxiety and was on long term medication for it as her previous trainers could not help her. She could barely walk around her yard without stress, pulling or running away. She was aggressive with the other animals in the home and outside and couldn’t sleep at night for more than a few hours. Her constant stress was contributing to health problems that would exasperate her behaviours. . We are happy to say she is able to happily sleep through the night, no longer has continuous health issues, can go for walks and is practicing polite social interactions with the other dogs in the home. We have been working with her owners regularly to help them make key lifestyle adjustments and in order to provide the communication she needs to develop her skills for confidence and calmness. She has come so far and is almost there! We took her into our Day School program recently to help provide the socialization that her owners struggle with so we can help accelerate her training. . #yyj #yyjdogs #dogsofyyj #dogsofvictoria #yyjdogtraining #teachtailortrain #victoriabc #yyjdogtrainers #dogtraining #balanceddogtraining #dogowner #dogs #dogtrainingtips #westcoastdogtraining #dayschoolfordogs #dogsofinstagram #victoria

Meet Dalvin! He is a big doofus who can get reactive with strange people coming around and sometimes dogs. He will be starting our Day School this month! Give Dal a nice welcome 🤗 . #yyj #yyjdogs #dogsofyyj #dogsofvictoria #yyjdogtraining #teachtailortrain #victoriabc #yyjdogtrainers #dogtraining #balanceddogtraining #dogowner #dogs #dogtrainingtips #westcoastdogtraining #dayschoolfordogs #dogsofinstagram #victoria #bernesemountaindog

Confidence building, impulse control, obedience oh my! We’ve been working with Rivers in our Day School program who had his last session with us last week. We will miss our weekly visits with him dearly. He is now ready for his owners to take over and continue to develop his skills but most importantly their relationship with him. . Rivers came to use with some serious impulse control issues when finding things on the ground. Garbage and tissues were his to keep. He used to flail and pull on leash which added more fuel to the fire. Thankfully he was eager to learn the new ways of life! . Over time we developed his skills to build his confidence and focus as well as learn to settle. We taught his owners how to give him the structure he needs to thrive and connected him to some amazing groomers (@thecalmdogstudio) to help with his handling sensitivities. Congratulations on all your progress Rivers - We hope to see you in our group classes showing off! . #yyj #yyjdogs #dogsofyyj #dogsofvictoria #yyjdogtraining #teachtailortrain #victoriabc #yyjdogtrainers #dogtraining #dogowner #dogs #dogtrainingtips #westcoastdogtraining #dayschoolfordogs

Ellie 🐑 As a young Australian Shepherd she is sensitive to her environment and is working on building her resilience and confidence around distractions like dogs! Her owners have put a lot into her training, which shined through today at Day School. With some more practice (and maturity), she is well on her way to being a flexible family dog! . #Victoriadogtraining #yyjdogs #yyj #dogtraining #dogsofbritishcolumbia #australianshepherd #yyjdogtrainer #yyjdogtraining

Rosie 🌹 Such a sweet, shy gal. This girl came to us in need of some confidence building and boundaries in the home. Being a curious shepherd can sometimes clash with human life so we are helping her and her owners understand how to give her more structure and guidance. Working on her recall and place training. She tried out her first Day School session with us today was so brave and well behaved! . #yyi #yyjdogs #dogtraining #gsd #balanceddogtraining #dogsofinstagram #germanshepherd

Guinness has been patiently waiting to get out on a Day School session with us. We practiced being a sponge. Cane Corso’s can struggle to determine what is a threat vs a friend so we did a whole lot of watching and building confidence in new environments or situations! Good Job today Guinness 🍎📚 . #yyj #yyjdogs #dogtraining #canecorsoofinstagram #workingdog #balanceddogtraining

Fischer working his skills while we practice functional socialization in his puppy program with us! His owner is learning lots and raising a great dog for his active life style. . A lot of owners misunderstand what socialization is. Functional socialization is about building neutral outlook and developing a dog’s confidence through obedience when around new stimuli . . #dogtraining #puppytraining #puppysocialization #workingdog #gspofinstagram #yyj #victoriadogtrainers
