Larson 💕
Loving his morning workout! I am so impressed with how smart and eager to please this boy is!!
He's doing an amazing job his first week of training!
Blake 💕
This girl went through my board and train program a few weeks ago.
This week she is back while her family is out of town, to ensure she continues to keep her training foundation in top top shape while they are away.
Today I took my kids to the park, I took Blake, Liberty, and Thor with us .
What you are seeing in this video is what you will hear me refer to as a "warm up". This is a quick training session that I will do with a dog as soon as we get to the new location.
This helps ensure the dog and I are working happily together as a team before we try to co-exist with the distractions at that location.
Notice how I'm doing our warm up, using a small area to work back and forth in. I am not working her in a continuous straight line.
The reason for this is, I want her full attention. Walking a straight line makes it easy for your dog to focus on the distractions around them. Choose a small area, and do lots of turning and pace changes.
My attention is always on my dog, after all, I'm asking for their full attention, so it's important that I am engaging with, talking to, and rewarding my dog consistently throughout our training.
You have to become someone rewarding to engage with, and work for❤️
After our 5 minute workout, we headed back very to the playground, where she did a half hour down stay with our other 2 dogs while we watched the kids play.
I'm so pleased with this girl and how much she has learned over these past few weeks!

This girl has been through my training program, and this week, she came back for boarding while her family is gone, as well as working on her off leash recall.
She is on a 100ft leash in this video, even though I don't think we actually needed it 😉
This girl is doing a phenomenal job!!
Ruby 💕
This happy girl graduated yesterday! She is all wiggles and energy!🤣

Carver 💕
This boy and I hit the bike trail this morning! So many new distractions, and we got to work on letting bikes pass us! Super proud of this boy! He graduates soon, and I'm so excited for his future!

Dodger 💕
This boy has been through my board and train program in the past, and came back for boarding and some brush up training while his mom has been out of town.
He has been doing such an amazing job! I always look back to the beginning of Dodger and I's training adventure, and it's enough to bring tears to my eyes (happy, proud ones)! This boy was a tough one in the beginning! I couldn't even touch him for the first week he was with me! He has moved mountains!!!
We have really enjoyed our time with him this week!
Here's a look at his day today! He's going to sleep well tonight!🤣❤️
Carl 💕
Doing an absolutely amazing job this evening!! This was his second lesson with his family! He has been with me for 2 weeks, and has one more week left! I am beyond proud of this boy! He has accomplished so much!!❤️
Carver 💕
I have lots of people ask me what a normal day looks like for their dog during their board and train stay with me. And I always tell them, there's obviously training involved every day, multiple times a day, but I also tell them, your dog LITERALLY becomes a part of my daily life and routines during its stay with me! Believe it or not, the video you are seeing is actually training in action as well!
Carver was put in a 100 ft leash while I worked on my new bird feeder station. This gave him the illusion and freedom of being off leash, safely. He got to play, be a dog, and work on random recalls from me, stay commands, leave it commands, and overall just learning to stay within eye sight of me while I worked! This boy is doing amazing!!
Thor❤️
The silliest, happiest, most amazing boy, who will do anything for his mom😂
Apollo 💕
A little late on posting his video, but this boy graduated yesterday!!
So proud of him and his dad! They have both come so so far these past few weeks!
Finn💕
This boy got to see his mom today for some training time! He has one more week with me before he graduates!
I have really enjoyed watching these two together, the love between them is so evident! They have both been doing such an amazing job learning how to work together! I'm super excited for their future together!

Marley 💕
Having a blast on my new 100 ft leash! This gives us an opportunity to work on our recall while having fun! I'm so in love with this leash!! I stole the idea from my sister, so she gets all the credit 🤣😂
you also can hear me just about get taken out by the leash at the end of the video 🤣 we had a blast though!
