Tater is a handsome and sweet Australian Shepherd who loves hanging out with his family. He's also a lil foodie and loves munching on tasty treats! He began training to address his excitable leash reactivity toward other dogs. He's made a lot of progress, is barking less, and offering more calm behaviors, while becoming more responsive to his parents! Does your dog react on leash too?

These two gorgeous pups are a Pyranese Mix and Pitty Mix. They began training with us this summer to improve their leash walking skills. They do regular training walks for consistent practice and when they aren't training, they love to play and wrestle together!

These cute fur children are two Boston Terriers who recently began training with us this summer! They have learned their basic obedience training and get weekly training walks for exercise and energy burning.

We've had such a Schnauzin' Spring with Birdie & Charles! These cuties are trainees who use our Pet Sit Drop-In service for days their parents are busy at work and won't be home until later. Each drop in is 40 minutes long and comes with notes, photos, or videos, and updates sent to you, the pet parent! This service is perfect for potty breaks, energy burning, play and engagement. Especially if you keep your dog inside a crate or confined during the day.

Is your dog left at home for extended periods of time? Inquire about our Pet Sit Drop-Ins today! Send us a DM or leave any questions below.

Spotlight: Pocket

This is Pocket! he's a Morkipoo (Maltese Yorki Mix) and a Mindful Trainee! He goes on weekly training walks to burn physical and mental energy. With these walks, he gets the opportunity to practice being more responsive to his handler instead of being excited and reactive to dogs that pass by. Pocket successfully completed our Reverse Constructional Aggression Treatment where he practiced being calm with a leashed dog distraction present, moving toward him. Pocket did SO well he was able to walk alongside the dog just a few feet away without any barking or lunging!

Is your dog leash reactive? Schedule a Mindful Training Consultation! We can help.

Spotlight: Charlie

This is Charlie! He's a King Charles Cavalier who recently began training for engagement and energy burning. He is part of a family with 3 human kid siblings. One of them is a new baby 👶 which means Charlie isn't the baby any more. Recently, Charlie has gotten into a little mischief, peeing inside, and chewing on unapproved objects like the wall and couch pillows! Training has been a helpful tool to provide engagement, burn his energy, and has provided a way to call him from something he shouldn't get into and redirects him to his parents or siblings instead. He has been practicing the Place/Stay command and he begun Crate Training today!
