I am very very proud of Oakley’s progress with PA training. Everyone that trains service dogs has different opinions on when a service dog should be exposed and desensitised to their gear. I believe service dogs in training should be exposed to as many things as they are comfortable - including their gear.
Oakley maintaining focus in a non-pet friendly store for the first time!
I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you to everyone that visited my page. It’s truly appreciated and encouraging to see so many interested in potentially training with us. Our reach/engagement has increased by nearly 500% in the last week alone. I truly truly appreciate everyone that’s looked at our page. Thank you very much.
Oakley - the 5 mo. old black lab we’ve been working with - has unfortunately been having Gastrointestinal issues. We’ve been fortunate that he’s made a beautiful turn around. Oakley has been working a little bit with his Public Access training and obedience. He’s made wonder progress in his focus in public as well as retaining his obedience thus far. Oakley has truly been wonderful to work with. Oakley, also, was introduced to scent training for cardiac alert. Once he has successfully started alerting to the smell, we will introduce a bringsel alert.
Here shortly, we are proud to be introducing a Border Collie puppy to our program as a Service Dog prospect. At this time, Tucker will be a board and train until the completion of his training. Tucker will be training as an allergy detection service dog, psychiatric service dog, and a cardiac alert service dog. His multipurpose status will benefit his handler greatly as they’ve gone anaphylactic on multiple occasions to multiple different allergies to foods.
Thank you all so so much again for the support on our page. I’m very grateful for y’all and it is being noticed. Thank you!
As a reminder, we know financial hardships are very very common nowadays - even amoung myself as the trainer. K9 Training can be very pricy. Our program does offer payment plans to ensure you, and your pup, get quality training that suits you and your family. Thank you so much for your support once again!
