Happy Birthday to my best friend, Jackson. He is the big 15 today! While his age is definitely showing, he still remains a constant in my life. “A best friend is someone who loves you when you forget to love yourself. And dogs do that effortlessly.” ❤️ I can’t imagine my life without you and how different my life would be if you never entered it. We love you so much, bubbs. 🐶❤️🐾🐶❤️🐾🐶❤️

Daisy is a typical teenage rescue dog. Being on leash is fairly new for her. Add that to being around 1 year old and we’ve got a recipe for barky lungy behavior. Luckily, she did great at our first out and about session on Monday! 🎉🎉

Kiah nailed her settle down exercises and is improving dramatically in her new home. Likely a teenager, she still lacks impulse control and has moments of big feelings but luckily her new family is committed to training her using positive reinforcement. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Sweet Daisy is learning how to navigate life in a home likely for the first time. Though she is very people friendly and dog friendly as well, being an adolescent dog has its challenges. We are starting to work on impulse control and better regulation of her emotions.

Sweet Bailey is adjusting to city living after spending his first few months in a secluded, quiet farm area. It is very different and something he is not used to but he is acclimating well with the help of some positive reinforcement training. Slow and steady.

Cooperative care is not a new concept; however it is gaining more familiarity amongst the dog world over the last decade. I’ve always tried to advocate for animals knowing there was a better way, even if that way took time, dedication, and consistency. I’m very excited to see what the future holds not only for myself as a dog trainer but for the dog community.

If your dog needs help at the groomer or veterinarian, please contact a positive reinforcement professional; including myself. I’m very excited to be diving into the cooperative care world again, only this time with dogs.

Personally, I’ve recently trained my own dog Jackson to accept nightly eye drops. Without cooperative care, this would not have been possible.

Also; please enjoy some other animals opting into training: Remo (South American Sea Lion), Cooper (North American River Otter), and Nicholas (Bottlenose Dolphin).

Moca practicing her side cues - finish (sit at the right), park it (side down stay cue), - and lets go for leash walking. All newly introduced cues for her, she did awesome!

My heart is full. THIS is what training is about: teaching one dog to be calm and settle, while teaching another not to react and build confidence! THIS is why we do what we do: to help owners accomplish their goals and to help dogs be the best possible versions of themselves! 🥳🐾🎉🐶🥰👏🏻 #dogtraining #forcefreetraining #fortheloveofdog #straylovefound #progressiveobedience #clickertraining #consistencyiskey #counterconditioning #clickforcalm #ilovemyjob❤️

Nail trims can be too scary for A LOT of dogs! An alternative to desensitizing and conditioning your dog to accept nail trims is to teach your dog a scratch behavior! This is similar to filing your dog’s nails instead of cutting them. This video is only three seconds, but shows June learning to scratch her own scratch pad! Great job June! 🎉🐾🥳🐾 #fearfree #scratchboardtraining #positivereinforcement

It seems simple, but really getting a good wait in a distracting environment when you walk away dropping the leash is difficult for most dogs let alone an 9 month old! 😍🐾💕🐶

My dog Jackson. I'm working on his speak behavior (just for fun.. He seems to enjoy it).
