Being in an industry that isn’t regulated, where pretty much anyone can call themselves a trainer and take people’s money, we need to start calling out the bad apples! I’ve talked about one day sharing my experience with a bad apple and I should’ve been more vocal about it a long time ago. But out of fear of repercussions from evil people I just vaguely made statements of “careful who you trust”. No more. I’m done fearing these evil people. God’s got my back. No weapon formed against me shall prosper! Darkside K9 previously Precision River K9 has done it again. These people have no moral compass, no conscience, NO HEART! Please watch my story highlight on my business instagram gen1k9 under “Choose wisely” and let your friends and family know to stay far away from these people! They are currently operating out of Sallisaw Oklahoma under Darkside K9. They go by Sara and Adam Huerta. They need to be stopped! King, Kano, Maggie May, Stormie, Onyx, and now Luffy and Boba deserve justice! All of the people they STILL owe money deserve justice.

Trixie is killing it over here! Extremely proud of how well she’s picking up everything we’re teaching her. Good job Trixie! 👏🏽
Trixie’s first training outing was so good! We went to Pelican Bay Book store and sat outside to watch the world go by. I gave her the “job” of down and rewarded every time someone walked by. I want her to find more value in me than in the people passing by. She did so good! Good job Trixie!

New dog tips
When bringing a new dog into your home, whether they’re a puppy or an adult, here are two essential tips to set them up for success:
1. **Limit Their Freedom Initially**: Many people make the mistake of giving a new dog full freedom in the house right away, but this can be overwhelming and lead to issues like accidents or unwanted behavior. To prevent this, keep your dog on a leash inside the house during the acclimation period. This allows you to provide quick guidance and corrections as needed, helping with potty training and overall adjustment. You can even attach the leash to yourself to stay close and address any behavior immediately.
2. **Hand Feed to Build a Relationship**: Hand feeding is a powerful tool for building a strong bond with your dog. By hand feeding, you create a positive association with you as the provider, which enhances your relationship and helps develop food motivation. This food motivation can then be used to reinforce good behavior and guide your dog as they learn what’s expected in their new home.

Teaching your dog the “place” command and giving them the “job” of staying in a designated spot can significantly enhance their impulse control and safety around lawn mowing equipment. By focusing on this task, your dog learns to remain calm and avoid potentially dangerous situations. Start by choosing a safe, comfortable spot for your dog. Gradually increase distractions, always reinforcing the command with high value rewards. This not only keeps your dog safe but also provides mental stimulation, reinforcing their training and your bond. But remember, when all else fails the crate is the safest place. #dogtrainingtip #impulsecontrol #petsafetytips #balanceddogs #gen1k9 #placecommand #dutchmalinois #dogsneedjobs
Consistent practice
Want a well-behaved pup? Consistency is key! 🐾✨ By consistently practicing the behaviors you want from your dogs, you’re laying the foundation for success. Keep at it! 🐶💪 #dogtrainingvideo #consistencyiskey #balanceddogs #practicepracticepractice #gen1k9 #multidoghousehold
This is the magic of free shaping. It’s training you can do right from your living room! 🏠✨
Which is perfect for days when the weather outside isn’t the best or energy is low due to sickness like is my current situation. Free shaping keeps your dog mentally engaged and active.
But what is free shaping? It is a fun and effective training technique that empowers your dog to think and problem-solve on their own. By rewarding incremental steps toward a desired behavior (in this case rounding a cone). And it’s a great way to build bonds! Blaze and I bonded while training even when physical activity wasn’t an option. 🐾💪 #freeshapingbehaviour #mentalstimulation #dogtrainingtip #balanceddogs #gen1k9 #dutchmalinois #nosickdays #nodaysoffnoexcuses #noexcuses #trainsick #trainhealthy #trainsmart

🐾 Building Confidence with the ‘Box Exercise’ for Nervous Dogs like Nova 📦🐶
This seemingly simple exercise is actually quite challenging for dogs like Nova. To her, sticking her head into the ‘unknown’ is a big step. I use this exercise to boost her confidence. And I offer high-value rewards each time she bravely explores the box. Those clicking noises? That’s my way of letting her know she’s doing great and getting rewarded for her efforts! 🌟👏 #confidencebuilding #nervousdogs #gen1k9 #balanceddogs #labradorretriever #mentalstimumation #mentalenrichment
Lottie
Getting Lottie going on the treadmill. But why?
🐾Using a treadmill for dogs is more about the mental state than just physical exercise. The benefits go beyond merely burning energy. While physical exercise is important, the treadmill’s significance lies in how it influences a dog’s mental well-being.
🐾The treadmill serves as a form of mental stimulation, as it engages the dog’s mind during the exercise process.
🐾The treadmill can help alleviate anxiety or restlessness by providing controlled physical activity.
🐾While the physical exercise aspect is great, the treadmill’s impact on a dog’s mental state is equally significant, providing structure, stimulation, and a controlled outlet for energy, contributing to overall mental well-being.

Treadmill training
🐾 Witness Maisie’s journey mastering the treadmill! 🏃♀️ In my training program, the treadmill isn’t about physical exercise for your dog. It’s a mental workout! For Maisie, it’s a tool to help calm her racing thoughts and slow down her mind. 🧠 #treadmilltraining #mindfulliving #dogtrainingexperience #balanceddogs #gen1k9 #anxiousdog #australianshepherd
Rollie went on his first Lowes field trip!
We worked on his leash manners and the 3 D’s Distance Duration and Distractions.
He is doing so good y’all! Can’t wait for his owners to see him Friday and spend the weekend practicing everything he’s learned thus far!
