So proud of team Kaya! This little lady is silly, happy, learning how to appropriately meet her husky-cattle dog-Esq needs, watches the world go by with ease while continuing to come out of her shell and self soothe to feel more and more secure around other dogs in the near future.

Her caretakers have been putting in the work and so excited to see how much more she blossoms in the coming months!

🐾🏴‍☠️🐾 Scallywag Pearl Pupdate! When we first get a dog it can be DAUNTING. ✨This is especially true when our new dog has some residual physical discomfort that is being professionally treated while they are also adjusting to their new home, new humans, new schedule, and brand new (exciting!) life. ✨

✨ Behavior health & physical health are intertwined. We for sure don’t feel our emotional best when we are feeling physically mehhhh. Tweaking a behavior plan with the goal of physical comfort can also ease behavioral anxiety and stress for everyone involved. 🎉Win-win!

🏴‍☠️ Are you curious how to ease your dog’s anxiety during the holidays? Want to ease YOUR anxiety with a holiday game plan with your anxious puppy? 🎉Check out our FREE webinar for quick tips and tricks to thrive and not just survive during the most festive time of the year with you and your dog!

When the dog says of summer allow you to:

🏴‍☠️ Slow down your walks (who else’s dog walks at turtle speed in the heat 🙋🏻‍♀️)

🏴‍☠️ Savor the present moments (highly recommend putting your phone away on sniff walks)

🏴‍☠️ Sit and Watch the World Go By on a bench (60 second bench sitting is harder than it sounds friends…)

Fall will be here before we know it. Let’s enjoy the summertime slowdown time with our pups 🏴‍☠️☀️
