I got my boy back!! We safely made it back to Ohio and this morning safely to Wisconsin for the family reunion!
I’m very proud of Crowley (formerly Vegas) and the progress he has made since returning to us.

Calia showing off her fantastic heeling while at Walmart. She has been taught to contact heel when pull strap is not in use, she is extremely useful for me as her owner/handler as she always lets me know she is there. She never strays too far and is quick to have her handles ready for me.

She is 8 months old and yes is equipped with a CB and Guide styled straight front harness. As visible in the video i do not usey handles a lot currently as she is too young. The Cb handle is strictly currently being used as my way to guide calia. As it works as a little handle I can push her off my leg when I need more distance in turns, and helps me direct her on what I’m asking of her.

She in this video is working with a halter, prong collar, e collar, and back up standard collar, as well as her diabetic alert straight front CB and Guide harness.
Handler is wearing a sweater warding humans to keep back and informing the public that we are a working team.

Calia also demonstrates a nifty move she actually taught herself to stay out of the way when she is stopped in the middle of the aisle due to me being pushed to the shelves, she will wait a moment before switching to my right side, facing backwards much like the rotation of an orbit command, waiting for me to move again, finishing her orbit back into heel on my left side

-- WARNING ;; Use of Extenda-lead ; Explination at end --
Flash back #2 This boy had some moves! He learned so fast and was so eager to do anything asked. He really has to this day every bit it takes to be the perfect Service dog!

(October 2018 - 5 mo old)
In this video warren shows his understanding of direction change (Ha meaning left) stoping, returning to heel (Fuss), waiting for a heavy door to be opened, alerting and waiting to go down stairs, opening and then closing the door when asked. At the end he “pounces” on the handler (Angelica) this later was actually him telling her to sit down, as just after finishing this video the handler got very dizzy and had to sit down. He continued to be persistent with his alert “pounce” until the handler settled to the floor with warren who settled her with Deep pressure therapy.


Extenda leash ; I understand all the dangers behind the use of such leash. At the time of which I trained this dog I had already had my own run ins with issues with this leash. But, I also understand how benifitial I can be when working with dogs myself. Because I fully understand the issues with it I am very careful when using this type of leash. I do not recommend anyone using this leash without proper understanding of the damages it can do, but I an not a trainer whom is 100% against it either. I believe, just like any tool, not every tool is meant for every team, but some tools that one team cannot use, another team can use very sucessfully. [Such as any tool ; Prongs, E-Collars, Slip Collars, Flay Collars, Head halters, Etc]

TW : Mild cursing

Flash back time!! Warren was always being teased by our cats! It’s all part of the training process but he had a very special connection with my babies and their mother who adopted warren once she realized she could control him!

(August 2018 - 4 mo)
In this video one of our past kittens Dos Aries Ariete (RIP) was playing with the puppy, pouncing and nipping play fully at his paws, legs and face. He is very gentle in response and lays down near the end never biting, pawing or lurching at the kitten present. (Her siblings and parents are off screen)

A little communication, love, praise and time she has come a long way in a short time! This super smart girl is so ready to learn what is up next!

This video the dog shows the dogs new understanding of how to heel. Handler shows this with a loose hand and leash demonstrating no pull from the dog.

Our latest rescue. I call her baby. She was dumped at a quarry and after a week there was brought to us. This is a short video of her first time walking with me. Her prong slipped down due to her excessive pulling. It was readjusted just after this video into a higher placement. She is so eager to please but also eager to explore!
