Board & Train Program
Leia is such a smart pup! ✔️

I absolutely love working with this beauty. She learns commands so fast and she's so happy doing them. All Leia wants to do is please as she loves the praise.
Today she learned a new command, Stay! She did really well and she caught on super quick so we added in some extra distractions.
Leia likes to jump up so we have been working on this since day one and she is starting to understand that the attention is only when 4 are on the ground.
Way to go girlie🩷

Board & Train Program
Pippin is a little a Rockstar! ⭐

Today we worked on his Down command which he did twice! He finds that one quite hard. I also taught him Wait and Leave it! In such a short time he has come a long way. You can definitely see his confidence through his body language and smiles. What a good boy Pippin! 🩵

Leia (Pippin's sister) had her first Board & Train session today as well (see below for Pippin's first session). What a smart, fun, energetic girl! Way to go cutie🩷

Pippin and his sister Leia are here for their vacation along with the Board & Train program.

Pippin has not much confidence when he's away from his sister so today consisted of some one on one time along with some very basic simple commands. You can see he had a hard time doing it but he did it! Way to go buddy. Can't wait to see his confidence grow little by little for the next 10 days💙

Thursday Training Tips!

*Dogs are natural mimics: They often learn new behaviors by watching their owners or other dogs.

*Positive reinforcement is key: Rewarding good behavior with treats, praise, or playtime strengthens the desired action.

*Short, frequent training sessions are best: Keep training sessions engaging and effective by keeping them short and sweet.

*Body language matters: Your body language can significantly impact your dog's understanding of commands. Clear and consistent signals are essential.

*Dogs can understand tone of voice: Your tone of voice can convey emotions and influence your dog's behavior.

*Every dog is unique: Different dogs learn at different paces, just like people.

*Consistency is crucial: Consistent training routines help dogs learn and retain information more effectively.

Look at little Honey go!
She's been working hard at our Board & Train program and she's doing amazing.

As she's getting ready to go home in a few days it's going to be all about practicing these commands and using them consistently in the correct manner. Positive reinforcement and patience is key to making sure she continues to be a beautiful well behaved girl. She's just a baby🩷

I adore working with this smarty pants! Enjoy her little video.
