LEIA PART THREE....WOW THE CHANGE...JUST ONE SHORT SESSION...HELPING NERVOUS PUPPIES FEEL SAFE... This is the end of Leia's first session in class and WOW what a beautiful change in her!!! When I see a beautiful soul make such a quick transformation with trust I then know what I'm doing as a professional dog trainer IS the proper way of professional dog training. I believe that NO dog trainer should ever teach through fear and negativity. #I LOVE MY CAREER ❤️❤️
LEIA PART TWO.....FIRST LESSON.. AMAZING TRANSFORMATION.... I just posted about beautiful Leia and how she was brutality traumatized as a very young puppy by a young man which has sadly embedded in her soul and has taught her that trust is not an option anymore. So her momma reached out to me and asked me to help. This fear is something I specialize in and I was honored when her momma called and signed her up for the training program. This is Leia's first training session and if you watch closely you will see how she started off really scared but with using ONLY positive reinforcement and love just in a few short laps you can see her body language go from scared to trust and her face actually smiles. There are NO NEGATIVE harsh corrections of any kind just pure kindness. Please make sure if you decide to go to a professional dog trainer they are never using negative reinforcement. This is how real professional dog training looks like!#LOVE MY CAREER ❤️❤️❤️
LEIA PART ONE..... FIRST LESSON... ..So this beautiful soul is such a shattered soul who was traumatized by a young adult male as a young puppy. Leia is a Newfoundland/poodle cross who unfortunately had an experience of being brutality scared by a man and this imprinted in her soul so her momma reached out to me asking for help. This fear that this poor soul feels is something I specialize in rehabilitating and have great success with. So this is a video of Leia coming up to me and taking treats from me as her momma and I talk and she honestly wanted nothing to do with me when I first met her. I was very touched!!! I will post two more videos of her on the same day same half hour session to show her transformation. Leia's momma is absolutely the perfect person for her and was AMAZING at how she handled the direction of handling. I cried with love happiness and just joy that this transformation was so fast! This is what professional dog training should ALWAYS be about!!!!#POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT ONLY AND LOVE ❤️
This is a typical morning with my girls after our early morning walk. We just sit outside and breathe and play! They are my heart and soul!!! My life!❤️❤️❤️❤️
MEET ROWAN.....POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT ONLY.....I have known this beautiful family since 1990 when I first met them with their beautiful Lacy who was also a Golden Retriever. They have learned SO much from me that they were able to train their other furbabies with the methodology I had taught them however when their son decided to add Rowan to their home they wanted to pass my knowledge and experience onto them so we can continue to train any dog in their future with the same love and methodology. I do not offer " Off Leash" dog training for several different reasons. The first is " Off leash " is illegal per state per township there is a leash law everywhere and the second reason is we are NEVER guaranteed that 100 percent our dogs will always come back to us as they are still dogs. I have several years experience working with police dogs and even though they are trained at the highest level of training possible even they at times do not respond to commands. I have seen those who offers " Off leash " training ALWAYS has an electric shock collar on the dog and remote in their hands so the dog responds because if he/ she does not stay glued to the owners side they get shocked and every dog I have seen trained that way I see pure fear in their eyes and a stress pant and their tails wag in a stressful manner as I am very well trained to read their body language. So if you look at this lesson Rowan is SO happy and his tail wagging is a HAPPY wag and his eye contact is pure LOVE!!! This is what you want to look for when looking for a professional dog trainer. #FORCE FREE FEAR FREE ❤️❤️❤️❤️
SPARKEY AND GINGER...THE FIRST LESSON AT HAPPY JACK'S PAWSITIVE DOG TRAINING.....MY PURPOSE... I introduced everyone to Sparkey and Ginger recently and explained that the very first time I ever met them their anxiety was SO high that we couldn't talk over them. They are over dependant on each other and Sparkey exhibits this behavior so much more than Ginger even though they are genetically related siblings. I honestly was not sure at all how they would respond to this big change as dogs with anxiety much like people do not respond well to change but I really couldn't be more proud of them!!!! Please notice that when they make a mistake they are properly and very gently guided through the mistake and NOT corrected harshly or shocked with a electric shock collar through their mistake. Their tails are wagging and as difficult as this was for them they worked through this change like champs!!!! I am SO proud of all of them and am really enjoying our journey. I have such warmth in my heart and soul knowing I am doing this the way every dog DESERVES to be trained through pure love and understanding!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
HAPPY PUPPIES AT HAPPY JACK'S PAWSITIVE DOG TRAINING.....I couldn't be more proud of how every single client and their fur babies have adjusted to the new environment. I take great pride in knowing each and every dog that comes into my world feels extremely safe and incredibly happy when they come to doggy school!! These are two examples of what POSITIVE reinforcement looks like. Wiggles and more Wiggles!!
MEET PENNY.... HER FIRST LESSON AT HAPPY JACK'S PAWSITIVE DOG TRAINING....NO REMOTE..NO NEGATIVE REINFORCEMENT..GENTLE GUIDANCE... So Penny is the happiest little puppy who has SO much energy and no concept of personal space 😅. Penny loves everyone and that is a quality we are going to build on with FUN HAPPY training!!! There is NO harsh correction and ABSOLUTELY NO REMOTE NO ELECTRIC SHOCK COLLAR!!! I will NEVER ruin a dog's soul by using these brutal tools and I am SO deeply honored to be the trainer her parents chose and we are on the same page with the training method. I will continue to share the progress that Penny and her parents make. I have NOTHING to hide so I wanted to share her life journey from day one in a video. Happy wagging prancing puppies is ALL we want!! #LOVE MY CAREER ❤️
UPDATE ON CASSIE AND HALE.....MY HEART IS JUST FULL...So last week I took Hale and CeCe in for their yearly exam and vaccines and CeCe was just awesome. Dr. Firestein just LOVED CeCe as CeCe loved her! It was adorable to see them connect. So when I took Hale in I had her see Dr Ball because Dr Ball has been her primary doctor since I brought her home. So in the past I had to medicate Hale with trazodone and gabapentin just for her nails to get cut because her anxiety was HORRIBLE. So of course she needed the same medicine for exams as well so I had to accept that I now own a dog that needs medicine for Veterinarian visits. Since Hale has been on the prozac and now that it is in her system for many months and with the training I continue to do with her the changes are just AMAZING!! Hale needed NO medicine for her visit with Dr. Ball and WOW she handled everything SO well I wanted to cry!!!! Dr. Ball said she has never seen a transformation like this before. I reminded her that I am a dog trainer and yes that makes a difference. Hale is finally free from her anxiety and as you can see SUPER happy and still acts like a dog. So many people refuse medicine to help their dog with the anxiety but if given the right medicine and teaming up with the right dog trainer you can give your dog the peace in their souls that they deserve. Now look at Cassie and how much she is running!!! I have not seen her run like this since we lost Leah!!!! I am SO happy with her progress with her PT and acupuncture. She is living a pain free life. My team of doctors are the best in their field!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
REHABILITATING ANXIETY....GINGER AND SPARKEY'S JOURNEY...... I met Ginger and Sparkey not too long ago and when they came to me they had so much anxiety that we couldn't even talk over them. . When we did our first session it was a room full of anxiety excessive barking pacing and panting and they absolutely could not be separated even by just a short distance from each other in the same room.I could have taken the EASY and CRUEL way out and put an electric shock collar on them to stop the barking but for me this is about teaching through love and kindness. Wow what a challenge to help these two beautiful souls learn how to find peace in their souls and not be so over attached in such an unhealthy way but with their parents being their voice and choosing the POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT methods I offer and their AMAZING love they have for their fur babies and their patience the changes in these two beautiful babies is just beyond amazing and SO heart warming!!! The reports I get from them on how much easier it is to connect to them at home if they start barking and how much calmer they are is exactly why I do what I do. Professional dog training MUST ALWAYS be about the quality of life for the dog and being able to see their souls and knowing that there will NEVER be pain involved in changing behavior! These two beautiful babies LOVE coming to doggy school and seeing me and Ginger and I have our own little conversation with each other when I see her!😅❤️ I honestly couldn't be more proud of them and their parents on how this journey is going!!! Such a heartwarming honor to be on this life journey with them!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
HAPPY PUPPIES..... So I absolutely practice what I preach. My girls are my life my everything and their happiness and balance in their life is the most important part of ownership. I just wanted to share what my house is like when we are getting ready for our morning walk. I know I sound seriously goofy but my girls LOVE when I talk to them like this and it just makes life MUCH happier!! Dog ownership is a PRIVILEGE and an HONOR and every dog deserves to have as much happiness as we can give them. There is NEVER fear in my girls life or with any of my clients puppies or dogs!!!! #LIVING WITH LOVE AND KINDNESS ❤️❤️❤️❤️
MEET PHOEBE....SAVING LIVES......POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT... TRAINING THROUGH LOVE.... I am beyond honored to be on this life journey with Phoebe and her momma!!!! We have been on this life changing journey for only a few weeks and the dedication and love and commitment her momma has is truly helping this beautiful soul finally feel peace as well as safety. Phoebe came to me with an incredibly high fear based anxiety that has created a strong defensive reaction to anyone who is a stranger to her. Phoebe has experienced abuse from whomever had her before rescue and sadly with abuse comes mistrust and fear and most times eventually aggression that is a survival instinct for dogs to have. We have taken this beautiful soul and with ALL positive reinforcement built her trust and have built a connection that I have no words for but are SO obvious in this video. I teach through my years of experience how to ENCOURAGE through love and gentle guidance how to look proud and be happy and NEVER fear anyone again! Please look at her body language and see how HAPPY she is and notice there is NO box or electric shock collar on her. This baby just glides through her process like she has been doing this forever!!! My heart is SO full of love when I see the changes and can see how her beautiful soul actually has peace finally and we are still in the early stages of this journey. This is my purpose!!! This is my heart felt passion and this is why I can sleep peaceful at night knowing I have never and will never hurt any dog for a quick result!!! #POSITIVE AND #LOVE MY CAREER ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I just really love my clients!!! The sense of humor with both my clients and their dogs is just amazing!!! I do want to point out on this video a few things though such as when Luna does get off track of the training process her Mom ENCOURAGES her and GUIDES her through every step to heel by her side and there is NEVER any harsh correction or a remote to shock her into what her Mom wants! This is what POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT looks like!!! Luna LOVES coming to class and her little butt just wiggles SO much and gives SO much love!!!! This is what any client should look for when looking for a professional dog trainer. Training through POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT ONLY and pure heartfelt LOVE from the trainer!!! #I LOVE MY CAREER ❤️
This is what professional dog training is ALL about!!! Happiness prancing tail wagging joy !!! There is NO fear NO remote NO electric shock collar just LOVE LOVE and more LOVE!!!! ❤️
My girls playing in the morning. Great way to start my day. Very peaceful very calming very happy. Just deep breaths and loving the moment ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I LOVE Luna and her sense of humor!!!! She is full of SO much love and just such a sweetheart!!❤️❤️#POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT ❤️❤️#LOVE MY CAREER ❤️❤️❤️❤️
FREDDIE'S JOURNEY... NEWEST UPDATE....I want to share an update on how incredibly awesome Freddie is doing. I did share his story before but as a recap Freddie's parents reached out to another trainer looking for help because Freddie was afraid and would bark at literally everyone and to Freddie's parents surprise the trainer just pulled out an electric shock collar and put it on him . Freddie's parents much like everyone else had no understanding of what exactly an electric shock collar was or how it worked but also trusted the trainer however when the button was pushed poor Freddie screamed at the top of his lungs and tried climbing up his parents legs out of complete fear. The trainer claimed he was ok. They were devastated and decided that it was not for him. When I first met Freddie we couldn't talk over his barking. The fear and anxiety I saw in his eyes just killed me!!! I was so angry that this happened to him and heartbroken that he was SO afraid. So with time and patience and love and with ONLY positive reinforcement this is Freddie now!!! This beautiful soul walks with great pride wagging his tail with pure happiness!!! He looks at his momma with all love in his eyes and not with fear!!! We MUST stop using electric shock collars and be the voices for our dogs!!!! I am SO PROUD of Freddie and his parents and their commitment to him! Such a difference with positive reinforcement and yes this does save lives as well as the soul of the dog!!!!❤️❤️
TURBO.....SO PROUD.....PLEASE LEARN HOW TO READ BODY LANGUAGE...... This is Turbo. Turbo is a rescue who has been given nothing more than pure unconditional love but exhibits a lack of trust towards strangers. This is an issue I deal with every day but what I really want to share is how to read body language when picking out a dog trainer. So in watching Turbo in his training process what I would like others to see is how high his head is. Please look at his tail wagging. Please notice his body being held up very proud. Please take a look at his face and you will notice that his head is up high even when his Momma is petting him and his eyes look so happy not worried or full of fear wondering when the next shock is coming. Turbo is SMILING and PRANCING as he walks by his Momma's side. Please notice that if he falls off track the VERY GENTLE guidance he receives and not once is he afraid of what is happening. When there are HARSH corrections or electric shock collars used in training the body language in the dogs is SO sad and the FEAR in their eyes is even worse!!! I do not ever hide anything I do. I share the life journeys of my clients from day one so clients can see exactly how I help clients I don't cover up the sound of my lessons either you can hear clearly what is being said between my clients and I and you will NEVER hear any of my clients dogs yelp because a " correction" hurt them unlike how a dog truly reacts when they are shocked with the e-collar for the first time and watching their head turn into the pain were the box is on their neck. Please educate yourself!!!! Please understand that FEAR AND NEGATIVITY is NEVER the answer. I am SO proud of how far Turbo has come in such a short time in his journey of building a much more beautiful life without fear!!!❤️❤️❤️
BUTTER.....MY BEAUTIFUL GIRL.....I COULDN'T BE MORE PROUD....... I am SO honored to be on this life journey with Butter and her family. When I first met her she had SO much anxiety and she also has a super sensitive stomach so these were two bumps in the road in trying to help her. This beautiful soul had so much anxiety that she wouldn't even take treats to help her learn her basics so we just used the power of pure love and WOW how absolutely BEAUTIFUL their bond has become. I am SO proud of her parents and their commitment to helping Butter. They are such wonderful people who follow direction and ask the right questions as well as give such detail on her behavior when they would struggle with her. I love helping my clients and just watching this bond build is just such a gift. This is exactly what professional dog training is ALWAYS about!❤️❤️❤️❤️
BEAUTIFUL MOLLY....SO PROUD....BUILDING A CONNECTION.... We have had such beautiful weather that all we do in classes are walks. This is Molly who is one of the softest souls I have had the honor to help 💗. Molly's parents reached out to me because at some point in their lives Molly had been attacked by another dog which in turn made her dog reactive on their walks which is very understandable. Molly is a sweet soul who just wants love and to please her parents. This was a walk we took last class and as we walked there had been two geese walking around and the fact that Molly never reacted or even cared about the geese was amazing and how she stayed mentally connected to her dad is exactly what professional dog training is ALL about. We trained Molly in such a gentle way because she is SO sensitive that had we done anything hard core it would have broken her soul permanently. Molly's parents and I have been on the same page about how to teach Molly properly with pure love and when she comes to class she walks into my training room wagging her tail. #BUILDING CONFIDENCE THROUGH LOVE ❤️❤️
