It's hot out there!

Be sure to avoid the hottest parts of the day on your walks, and take every chance to dip your paws into the water.

Our friends at High Country Host in Boone, NC have been working overtime to keep everyone in the loop about what trails, pathways, parks, and waterfalls are open post-Helene. We are so grateful for all they have done! You can see their full update here. Brody and I wanted to share part of their update with you, and add our own favorites as well!...

Amazing news from Banner Elk, NC! As of June 2025, Tate-Evans Park in downtown Banner Elk is FULLY OPEN! Brody and I have taken several walks along the greenway at the park this Spring, and we are so impressed by the progess being made by the town of Banner Elk and Eggers construction. The pathways are all clear of debris, the bridges are safe and accessible (although one will need to be replaced), the river is clean, and the playground is open!...

Just a gentle reminder... most dogs DON'T want to say hello to everyone they pass!

And...honestly... neither do I

It is perfectly okay if your dog wants to enjoy his walk without meeting and greeting humans or other dogs. Some dogs are introverted just like we can be!

And if your dog is the extrovert, please remember to ask for permission and respect the answer from the other people you're passing by before you let your dog say hi.

Potty training your puppy doesn't have to be a nightmare!

If you follow all four of these tips, your puppy will be potty trained in no time!

Keep a schedule: Take your puppy to their designated potty spot (on leash) every 90 minutes to 2 hours.
Reward them with a super cool treat AS SOON AS they finish pottying. Don't wait til they come inside.
No loose puppies! Until your puppy is fully potty trained, using crates, gates, and pens will help them be successful and prevent them from sneaking off to potty inside.
Keep your eyes on your puppy. Unsupervised puppies can quickly have a potty accident, chew your favorite shoes, and more! Keep your puppy within eyesight.

I am not a big fan of 'on-leash greetings' when out on walks. There is a lot that can go wrong, and you are trusting the safety of yourself and your dog in the other person's hands. Do they really know and understand how their dog acts around others?

If you want to allow your dog to greet others, I suggest you follow the 3 Second Rule! And ALWAYS ask first

Congratulations to (recovering reactive dog) Yogurt for graduating to Adventure Club!

One of his mom's BIG goals when we started private lessons was feeling confident and safe with Yogurt passing other dogs on trails. He REALLY struggled with this and it was almost impossible before!

He absolutely rocked in class tonight, and did even better on our group walk!

Meet Brianne

Hey there! I am Brianne, your very own compassionate and patient dog training coach.

Like many of my students, I have always loved animals. My childhood scrapbook is full of pictures of me with a wide range of stray animals I tried to convince my parents to let me keep. I was 12 years old when I finally won my parents over and we kept a stray puppy. Her name was Doodles, and she was a Granville County Special – a total mystery mutt! It didn’t take long before I taught Doodles a variety of tricks; sit, down, shake, roll over, high five, and even how to jump over a broomstick. I have many fond memories of packing my pockets with dog cookies and heading out with Doodles and my little sister in tow for “adventures” in the neighborhood. Doodles was a willing and constant companion, no matter the journey we were on. She saw me through more challenges and trials in life than I could possibly name. She lived 17 wonderful years, and I am eternally grateful for the lessons she taught me.

Today I continue to make memories and learn lessons from the many animals in my life. Through my work at Apple Hill Farm, an alpaca and angora goat farm that is open to visitors, I help people get back in touch with what’s real as they take a break from the hustle and bustle of life to experience a real farm. As a dog trainer, I coach my students through their journey with their dog. Together, my students and I teach our dogs tricks, help them refine their manners, and we can help shy, fearful, or aggressive dogs find harmony in their lives. It is always an honor to begin work with a new student; we have so many lessons we can share with each other!
