Crate training. A crate should NEVER be used as a form of punishment. A crate should be seen as a home within your home for your dog. But why is it important? For dogs that are still learning the world and the difference between right and wrong a crate can be used for the moments you cannot physically supervise your dog. The more you allow a dog to practice UNWANTED behaviors the strong those behaviors become. #cratetraining #aussie #clickertraining
Every dog has the potential to learn and thrive with the right training and love 🐾 #dogtraining #doglover #happypuppy #trainyourdog

It is important to socialize dog at a very young age. Proper socialization during a dog’s early stages of life is crucial to prevent fear, anxiety, and aggression issues. It involves controlled interactions to ensure positive experiences, fostering a well-adjusted and sociable demeanor in different settings. #dobermanpinscher #chicagodobermans #puppysocialization #dogsocialization #chicagodogtraining #chicagok9 #ecollartraining
“Hey everyone! This is Willow, the 7 month old lab mix.
Willow is here for basic manners to learn how to be a good pup in society. As you can see Willow is very strong natured.
One of the biggest skills we are teaching Willow is how to work her brain. Letting her make mistakes and guide her to do better next time.
Using a marker such as a verbal “yes” or a clicker help her to understand the exact choice that got her paid.
Just like humans, dogs work better when they are paid better.
Why is socialization more than just meeting other dogs? Some dog owners have experienced their dog only listening to them at home BUT would love to take their dogs to different environments. This is where we can help! We want your dogs to not only learn and understand that being well behaved in any setting is important , they why we take SOCIALIZING to the next level. We believe that taking dogs to any environment is extremely important at a young age because as they get older we do not want them showing any signs of fear or lack of engagement. Have you started socializing your dog correctly? Contact us for support!
Meet Cricket the 4yr old bully mix
Cricket is doing our 30 day day school program. Cricket is here to work on impulse control and stranger danger.
Cricket has done private lessons with us previously but she needed a tune up on her manners after a few poor experiences with outside parties.
Cricket is a love and is hugely food driven, we can’t wait to see her progress.
Meet Willow! Willow is a 7 month old lab mix, she is here for a 30 day board and train. In this time she will learn polite house manners, recall and how to walk on a leash. Willow has low impulse control, meaning when Willow wants it she goes for it. She has been here since Monday, and so far has learned to start thinking before she makes her choices.We don’t look for perfection in dogs, we look for the ability to understand and learn what humans are communicating.

Oakley 4 months in the first video and 6 months in the last. Prime age for puppy training! Oakley did our 9 lesson private program, he was nervous around other dogs and his mom wanted to get ontop of his obedience. Great job to both of you, keep training❤️ it shows @

Rakim and Tae Tae. Monkey see, monkey do. Double the trouble which lead to double the amount of stress! And now two dogs just causally on a walk with all the distractions!
Theale the Miniature Australian Shepherd! Just to mention a few things we worked on are: crate training, house/door manners and leash pulling. Private 1 on 1 sessions are key for owners that wish to take part of their companions journey.
@beaumastiff went from walks being a struggle to now a way more enjoyable walk. Proud of the work put in by his parents through the amazing guidance and knowledge of our very own @k9driven.layla
