We would love for all dogs to be as joyful as Sir Winston Longsnoutl!

[We're named for a member of the Longsnout canine clan, but shortsnouts are welcome, too!]

In December of 2013, we - randomly, yet driven by synchronicity - had the opportunity to foster a purebred Black & Tan Coonhound found as a stray on the streets of southeast Detroit. He was taken under the wing of American Black & Tan Coonhound Rescue, his stay with us was coordinated via SE Michigan's resc

ue network, and he was named Sir Winston Longsnout. Despite being dumped, ridden with worms, and ridiculously skinny, the 7-9 month old male was the most naturally joyful animal ever encountered and our week with him was a whirlwind of tailwags, dog smiles, romps in the snowy backyard, and cuddles. We offer relationship-building tools via reward-based training in the form of: training walks, runs of all lengths, 1:1 training sessions, and small group training classes (coming in 2015!). It will be an honor to partner with you and your canine(s) to help bring that joy to your relationship.

Proof that occasionally the floor is dog hair, stuffy fluff, and cardboard-free. *

* sure it takes a shop vac AND emptying the regular vacuum about a million times, but it happens. HOW are these dogs not naked with all this shedding?!?!

🐾 Double the Fun, Double the Benefits!

Let’s be real—I like to think I’m a pretty dog-savvy human. And sometimes (okay, rarely) I have a brilliant idea. 💡 This one’s a game-changer: Pupsicles with built-in tooth cleaning!

At Wildling Corner, we’re all about cooperative care that’s good for both ends of the leash. So while refilling our , I had a lightbulb moment—why not add a dollop of enzymatic toothpaste at the bottom? Two birds, one mold!

This batch’s recipe:
✔ Pre-made treat powder
✔ Turkey bone broth
✔ A massive dollop of enzymatic toothpaste (hello, fresh breath!)

We’re OBSESSED with how durable and easy-to-fill these pupsicles are—and now they’re sneaky-smart dental care, too. 🦷✨

“Good training should look boring.”

This wee clip has me SO FULL OF EMOTIONS. It’s taken a whole lot of work to get Cilla this level of comfort and calm.

Pattern games. x10000
Mat relaxation.
Scentwork.
Traveling sniffaris.
Parallel walks with Dougal.
Walking at night. (The dark worries her)
Movement puzzles.
Canine fitness.
Vet visits.
X-rays.
Meds…of all sorts.

Cilla’s increased worry and reactivity last year had me (and my vets!) trying to rule OUT many options, like pain of some sort (spine or hips). We ruled *in* behavioral meds and upped her “out in the world” work.

That last one isn’t easy. I’m human (surprise!) and sometimes it IS easier to not do the work. BUT that’s not a sustainable long-term plan. So, this last year, we’ve been Project Cilla-ing big time, mostly consistently. (I’m human)

Today, she made it 42 minutes in a group Chillax practice. 42 MINUTES.

She typically has a 20 minute window before she hightails it back home or to the car. Yes, even with an Emotional Support Dougal.

So, in a small group setting, with dogs she doesn’t know, for her to excited bark ONCE, and only levitate ONCE?!! Thrilled. Over the moon. She also LAY ON HER MAT BY CHOICE. But that’s its own post to come…

Practicing calm *is* a skill. Learning to relax, for some dogs take a LOT of rehearsal. A lotta lot. If we want our dogs to be relaxed in a variety of areas, we have to practice the relaxed behaviors…which includes being intentional with our human voice tones and actions, too.

Come learn these skills with us…

I’m so f*cking proud of her.

One week, two different vet appointments.

I take arthritic pain and noise sensitivity/fear very seriously. So…

Dougal went to meet Dr. Hawker at to discuss how to best keep Dougal comfortable know that nail/foot care is essential in older (ALL) dogs.

Kenna got to visit our friend Dr. Saad at to talk about how to best manage noise worry. We’re going to have construction around here in the near future and it was the next door construction that initially pushed Lotta Bit into noise fear.

So, many prescriptions later, we have new protocols in place and we’re ready for the 🎆🧨 season. And sleepy nail trims.
