A dog shouldn’t have to misbehave to receive structure and boundaries. And if they’re not learning those things in their own home why are we correcting them for not knowing what to do outside of it. With that being said, everyone meet Starling. She has spent time with our friends so we got some good info about her from them! We are going to help fill out her dating profile and help find her forever home! She will be looking for her home through . 😎

flew across the country to have us work with her dog only to fly back across the country to go fly across the world for a wedding. The amount of amazing trainers she passed along the way is too many to count white makes it that much more special she chose us. 🙏🏾❤️Thank you, Ruchi!

If you are unable to drain your dog’s energy your dog will find ways to release that energy. Probably in ways you don’t want them to. Every dog has a different level of energy. It’s best to pick a dog whose energy level is just below yours which is something to think about if you are thinking about getting a working dog.

It requires a great amount of discipline to not get caught up in the story of how a dog was dumped in the mountains. But I will focus on how stepped up to give him a place to stay. And to for taking him in and trusting us with him. We have secured a foster who will be working with him while we get him readjusted to this crazy human led world. Everyone welcome, Buddy. We are going to get to know him and fill out his dating profile!

Out of the many “Linn-isms” I’ve been taught by “Slow is fast” is in my top 3. If you can’t do something slow you have no business doing it fast.

For dogs like Greta, all they need is a chance and some time. If the energies match, training becomes secondary.

If you stayed one week with a neighbor you don’t know well, it would not be enough time to adapt to their way of living even with instructions. Things would look familiar but the way they do things would be different than what you’re used to. Now imagine that they speak a different language than you and everytime you do something “wrong” they correct you and make your “sit” only to give you your favorite snack and then they move on with their day. lol Welcome to being a dog. lol Your dog may need less basic obedience and more simple instruction on the rules of the house they’re going to live in for the rest of their life.

If you don’t take the time to learn how a dog’s family lives, their schedules, what they actually have time for and what their current capabilities / skill level is then you’re just teaching the dog to be good with you, which basically means nothing once the dog goes back home. Learn the people first. Teach the dog second.

I think the most challenging part of working with dogs is not taking it personal. When Nova arrived she took a couple swipes at me and actually almost got me. But she was also fresh out of the shelter and now somewhere new getting handed off to someone she’s never met before. She absolutely was allowed to have her feelings. Had I taken it personal there’s no way I would’ve been able to connect with her the way I did. Even though she was only here for a short time I wholeheartedly love this dog. She’s now in Pennsylvania where her new dad sends me updates. ❤️ Thank you for trusting us with her! And her dad who I’m not sure has an instagram. 😂

It’s funny how we bring these dogs into our world and then dump them when we don’t have time for them but yet label them these unfair things knowing they will never get a chance to defend themselves and make it almost impossible for them to get adopted. Rescue dogs aren’t “broken”. We are.

They teach swim class next door so in the morning when I’m working the dogs there’s lots of people getting in and out of their cars with kids…real life stuff. Today, one of the moms saw Jack and said “He is so much calmer than he was when he got here”. My ego got a boost and so did Jack’s except Jack decided to get up and jump out of the car letting me know I was too early in the process of celebrating myself 😂😂. So what did I do when he jumped out? I didn’t say a word and I had him go back in the car and we started over. 😎

Many times, we see a dog that’s excited and doing things that bring us joy we see it as the dog is “happy”. But when that same excitement makes us nervous we can see it as “aggressive”. This is why I choose to see excitement as controlled or uncontrolled instead of “good or bad”. And if I can’t control it I don’t allow it.

Look at it as raising your dogs rather than training them. This message is brought to you by adoptable Black husky mix Mac ( ) and Maverick, who sometimes doesn t want to be raised or trained. 😂

When Nova arrived she came in hot so I made sure to give her space. She was showing teeth. Then tried to bite me. As I gave more space she was just dragging the handler towards me. Eventually we got her settled down enough so the transporter could leave. I think the biggest factor in working with dogs is not taking things personal. Nova is a 1 year old Malinois who arrived stressed out, under exercised, over stimulated and now being left with a me, who she has never met. I understood. Her first day here I let her just settle in and didn’t work on much. The next morning instead of “getting to training” I decided to let her burn off a little steam so I introduced her to the e bike and we went for a ride. It turns out Nova has about as much stamina as I did the night I lost my virginity. 😂. But the important thing is she got it out and now we have a fresh canvas to paint on. We are very honored to be a small part of her journey. ❤️

Her name is Nova and she’s our new Mal Pal. We are going to get to know her a little bit before she heads out to Pennsylvania next week!

Tiny Diamond got some extensions in her hair after her spa day with and woke up ready for glamour shots. Greta ( adoptable though ) obviously is not. 😂

The dog used in "The Road Warrior" (1981), named simply "Dog", was obtained from a local dog pound and trained to perform in the film. One day before he was to be put to sleep, members of the crew visited his shelter looking for a pet to cast for the film. He was picked out from several other dogs, due to him picking up a rock off the ground and playing with it like a toy. The crew members realized the dog could have a real presence on film, and had the potential to be trained. This movie ended up being the only film in which he would appear. the sound of the engines upset him (and in one incident, caused him to relieve himself in the car), he was fitted with special earplugs. After filming was complete, he was adopted by one of the camera operators.
The dog was actually quite fond of actor Bruce Spence. For the scenes where Dog had to act aggressive toward the Gyro Captain, Spence would play with the dog, encouraging him to bite his scarf. Combined with some clever editing and overdubbed growling, this friendly tug-of-war made Dog seem much more aggressive on camera.

Farrah (lab mix from Outta the Cage) and Tippy ( pittie mix from All For Love Animal Rescue) are ready for their new homes!

Out of these two dogs, one usually gets all the space they need because of he looks and the other one gets no space for the exact time reason. One of these dogs will get asked permission to pet while one just gets touched if they are within arms reach. One of these dogs also gets way more chances to “mess up” than the other. And most people will decide this before ever getting to actually know them. At the end of the day, both of these dogs deserve respect regardless of how you think they will react. People get confused when they seem them walking together. Also, one of these dogs prefers belly rubs while the other prefers circuit training. 😂😂😂 #humblek9

In July of 2023, @blues_babes brought home a 10 week old husky to foster for @istandwithmypack . 7 days later we adopted him. Even though Elvis was retired and settling into his role as couch potato, I wasn’t really looking for a “helper dog” , let alone a husky, but he showed up and he kind of checked all the boxes. At 9 months old he’s helped me out quite a bit. We named him, Maverick. And if you’ve seen Top Gun, he fits his name to a tee. lol I never thought we would have a husky in our family but I will say th

In my opinion the goal should be to create a calm dog as opposed to a “good dog”. It’s hard to make a dog “good” agen they’re all good dogs. 😎 This message is brought to you by adoptable pittie Churro who is looking for his home through All For Love Animal Rescue #humblek9

Your dog isn’t “stubborn” they are just hesitant to trust what you’re asking them to do in the moment. Adoptable Churro has come such a long way on his leash walks. This guy is adoptable through All For Love Animal Rescue !

Bike rides are one of the different activities Churro likes to do! Adoptable Churro is looking for his home through All For Love Animal Rescue !

Giving rules and boundaries to our dogs is not “being mean”. It actually keeps our dogs safe. This video is probably 4 years old now back when I was teaching at @pawsitivechangeprogram . I really miss and love this program.

I really do miss teaching @pawsitivechangeprogram . For whatever reason when I was teaching at #corcoranstateprison I would get bit. But I would always share the experience. - Repost from @ipittythebull • I left the house late, was tailgated by a guy flipping me off and drinking a Red Bull while listening to “Hit Em Up” by 2pac all played a hand in me getting bit. Just because you recognize your car is overheating doesn’t mean it becomes cool at that moment. Recognizing is one thing. Bringing yourself down is another. Being calm is a process...to be calm in the moment you have to practice being calm when “it doesn’t matter”. I always share my set backs with the guys in @pawsitivechangeprogram . It’s usually where you learn the most. #ipittythebull #pawsitivechange #corcoranstateprison

Some dogs have a little more energy than the others. In Colin’s case, a lot more. Lol So the bike ride helps us to slow them down before we walk. Dogs like Colin like to pull, run and chase. Personally, I don’t want to take that away from him but he also needs to learn to walk calmly and do place work. So I provide him with he wants and he provides me with what I want. Here’s a little run down of the tools we use to assist us on the bike rides. Colin is looking for his home through @realgoodrescue ! #humblek9

Many dogs don’t mind being pet by everyone. Some dogs don’t like being pet by everyone. All dogs are different. Learn your dog. Connect with your dog. Advocate for your dog. #humblek9

Betty (@outtathecage )was helper of the day today and helped out with Benny (@istandwithmypack )and I need a shirt that says #gracefulaf lol - Thanks for capturing this @caninemindset lol

Rocco was labeled aggressive. We didn’t make him “not aggressive” it’s just that it’s hard to truly assess a dog’s behavior in a place where it’s extremely high stress. Thank you @underdogheroes_ for giving this guy a chance. He’s pretty amazing. #humblek9
