To all my parent friends who have young children and dogs…please be very careful with their interactions. This is a terrific video of what to watch for…
A bit of agility training with Smart Moves in San Jose. Rehlein is coming along very nicely!!
Class warm-ups in agility do more than stretch a dog’s limbs. They play a crucial role in directing the dog’s focus toward its owner and setting the stage for this team sport!
Contact me for current class schedule!
I picked up a few extra snuffle mats today while in Liberia! So excited to see these are available. Let me know if you want one!
*I had people ask how the mats are used… this is how😊!
Just wanted to say how proud I am of all my intermediate dog agility super stars!! These ladies just graduated from this advanced level class where they worked on rear, blind and front crosses, weave poles and contacts. More importantly their dogs are learning focus, impulse control, and their mom is where the party happens! Congratulations to you all!
For everyone who has been asking…
New Nosework Class starting soon!
Dates/Time: 8:30-9:30am, beginning this Saturday for 5 consecutive weeks

Kids and dogs are the perfect combination, right?
Usually, but unfortunately I am seeing my fair share of interhousehold issues between the two.
So I have created my Kids and Dog Package to help you achieve a bit of calm in your household.
As a certified dog trainer I have done dog bite prevention programs in several local schools to help kids learn to stay safe around their family dog as well as dogs they meet when out and about.
Now I am blending that program into home based training for you and your kids.
As a certified trainer I know what it takes to help manage environments and train behaviors to help curb problems before they start. Let me help you keep your dogs and kids safe!
Each package consists of 2 home based lessons (30-40 minutes/lesson) with your kid(s) and dog(s). The packages can be modified to be appropriate for an age range between 4-10 years. Our focus will be on training both ends of the leash in good behavior!
For pricing and schedule options please send me a PM.
I talk about this a lot with clients!
Most training professionals strongly recommend against adopting two pups at the same time.
I am actually not a huge fan of food based interactive toys. I just think of them as brain drain for dogs. Kind of the same thing as me spending time on FB😂😂. Nice that there is a study to support my thoughts…
Environmental enrichment (EE) can be used to enhance the environment of various animals. The aim of this pilot study was to determine the effects of seven EE activities (Bonding, Bubble machine, Conspecific play, Interactive toy, Playhouse, Stuffed food toy and Tug play) on dog behaviour, pre- and p...
Yes trainers struggle as well! Our dogs are not perfect and neither are we! Training is an ongoing challenge and I like to think that I make strides to do better everyday, but do not worry about having perfect dogs. Enough stress in this world so the out worrying about that one!
I’m not doing enough! I’m not doing it right! My dog deserves a better trainer than me! Do any of these sound familiar? If so, you may be suffering with dog trainer guilt. It’s ubiquitous, particularly among professional trainers. We tend to hold ourselves to fairly high standards, high enough...
Interesting article. I can only assume behavior is also strongly influenced by inbreeding as well.
Dog breeds are often recognized for distinctive traits — the short legs of a dachshund, wrinkled face of a pug, spotted coat of a Dalmatian. Unfortunately, the genetics that give various breeds their particular attributes are often the result of inbreeding. In a recent study published in Canine Me...
Guests coming for the holidays? You might need my 'Manners Refresher' package!

Finally
Whole Dog Journal‘s mission is to provide dog guardians with in-depth information on dog food, training, behavior, health, and more.

When antidotal evidence is not enough, go for the science!!
Puppyhood exposure to raw animal-based foods might have a protective influence on AASS incidence in adulthood, while puppyhood exposure to mixed oils, heat processed foods and sugary fruits might be a potential risk factor of AASS incidence later. The study suggests a causal relationship but does no...

Rehlein is learning to ignore distractions that are important to her on a walk (birds, iguanas, monkeys) and return to me when cued. Recall training is done in a step by step way with slow addition of distractions to set her up for success. I think she is doing very well😀!
Tracking is a dog sport that uses a dog’s nose very much the way it was intended... to find stuff! Mick and Drew are one of our intermediate teams. Mick is able to find and follow a scent trail to an item of clothing left behind by the track layer. This is the same way a search and rescue dog would follow a trail to find a missing person. Here Mick is learning to turn a corner as the scent changes direction. Tracking class is every Fri morning at 9am. Contact me for details!
