🐾 Meet Liam, the Aussie Dynamo! 🌟

Introducing Liam, the one-year-old Australian Shepherd who's redefining the term "high energy!" This guy is a whirlwind of fur, fun, and fetch, and we're lucky to have him in our structured Day Training program twice a week. 🎓🐶

Liam is a proud graduate of our off-leash Board and Train program, proving that intelligence and enthusiasm can be harnessed—sometimes with a Frisbee! 🥏

Australian Shepherds like Liam are the superheroes of the dog world: insanely intelligent, fiercely loyal, and more energetic than a toddler after a sugar rush. ⚡️ But beware, they’re not for the faint-hearted couch potato. An active lifestyle is a must to keep these fluff-tastic creatures happy and healthy. 🏃‍♂️🐕

Training Liam has been nothing short of an adventure, and we're thrilled to have him as part of the Fidelio Dog Works pack for life. ❤️🐾 If you're up for a life of love, loyalty, and lots of legwork, an Aussie might just be your perfect partner in crime!

“What you allow, will be”. This statement is used often with our clients when discussing behavioral issues or things our dogs might do that drive us crazy. Jumping, getting in the trash, running away when we call them, etc. When we allow these behaviors, we are in effect reinforcing that behavior to continue if not happen more often.

Interested in learning how to change the game and not only eliminate (for good!) bad behaviors, but also teach the dog a better way to get what they want? Give us a ring! Shoot us an email! Let’s get to work! The majority of the time, a single training session can change everything! Thank you for the kind handmade and thoughtful gift, Trent! You are the best!

Fidelio Dog Works is the best dog training company in Austin, TX. Our services include obedience training, puppy training, and board and train programs.

Good Thursday morning everyone! Our man Jim is ready to get after it today! Are you? Let’s go!

IYKYK! Fidelio is here to help! Come work with us and will help teach your dog how to walk on a loose leash. Stop falling for the marketing BS!

https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=989826876519263&id=100064758788370

Dogs generally pull about 60 per cent harder on a leash when wearing a padded harness compared with a collar, even when the equipment is marketed as “anti pull” – putting the people walking them at risk of injury.

Some dogs – especially smaller breeds – pull with a force more than twice their body weight on the collar, potentially damaging their throats, says Erin Perry at Southern Illinois University.

“It’s really very shocking,” she says. “The dogs are almost choking themselves on that collar repeatedly. But the harnesses in our study just didn’t inhibit pulling in any way, and that’s definitely a wake-up call – especially because of the risk to owners.”
