Your 2-year-old dog, is mentally only around 15 years of age.
Training and socialization must be continuously instilled throughout the first 3 years of a dog's life.

Every single day, 24 hours a day.

🐾 Practicing 'Place' command, with Baxter & Nash was perfect!🙌
During lesson #1, both boys practiced 'heeling,' and 'sitting' automatically when their owner stopped her feet. They also, learned 'place' command; to be used when people come to the door🚪, or during dinner time.🍲😋
Baxter & Nash, are both Cavalier King Charles Spaniels.

🐾Say "Hi" to Pancake.👋🏽

Congratulations Pancake, on mastering the “Place” command!
"Place," is incredibly important for teaching dogs to settle down in any given situation. This command is helpful for those who work from home, entertain guests, or want to teach their dogs how to be more confident. Congrats to and her Mom! 👏🏽

URGENT - HOME NEEDED

A client of mine added a young mastiff to their home in February after reading the following post:

“Good Boy that needs a home. *having a baby and no time to dedicate to him*

Drako, male intact, hes 10mos, current on shots,

Good w/ppl, good w/dogs

-$350 rehoming fee”

Unfortunately for my clients who took Rosco in, none of this information was true. Rosco was in horrible shape. He was malnourished due to a horrible diet, had no training, and had horrible episodes of reactivity. My clients have even reached back out to the Facebook group attached below. Sadly they have said "not responsible".... https://www.facebook.com/groups/1833385830255139/?ref=share

Since February 11th, Rosco has been vetted fully, neutered, gained 30 lbs, and has been working on training using a collar, e-collar and muzzle! He’s making great progress; however, due to Rosco’s reactive nature, my clients feel it is best for them to find Rosco a home where his new owner can dedicate lots of time towards his rehabilitation, preferably away from children.

With the proper training, love and patience, reactive dogs can lead a life the same as any other dog. Reactive dogs are good dogs, too, they just take a bit more patience, effort and love.

I’ve seen it firsthand time and time again, that reactive dogs are often unstructured, anxious dogs who need someone to take the time to teach them structure. If you believe you have the time and skills to handle a reactive, young Mastiff, please reach out to me. Rosco’s a very good boy and he deserves a very good home!

Maverick and Grizzly🐾

These two first came to us when they were only 5 and a half months old to learn basic obedience on leash. Training your puppies is SO important for a dogs confidence as it explores a whole new world.

DM me to get scheduled to train today!

Charles & Kade.🐾
Their owner has been winning and slaying her Dance competitions! So, these boy's have been staying with us, off and on every other weekend, for boarding. It's been a pleasure to have them.
Congratulations on winning 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place, on all of your dances Mia! We can't wait to see what you will accomplish! 👏🥇🥈🥉

🐾💭Allowing your dog to have as many positive experiences as possible, makes a great dog.
Hazel, is 6.5 months old. And she is flying through obedience training. We have met a total of three times, and she is already working towards becoming off-leash reliable with obedience commands.
📸: Here she is at Edgewater Park holding the 'sit' command, with many distractions at play. 👏⛹️‍♂️🐇🦆

🐾Dog Training, isn't only about teaching commands.
It's about creating a balance of understanding, built by clear associations, no matter what they may be.
Corrections, encouragement, and praise. A balance of all three, given at the right time, is 🗝️ to creating a well rounded Dog.
Maverick, and his litter mate, Grizzly, are staying with us for basic obedience training this week. They are doing well with the commands, but training is also very much about creating a bond of understanding. So today, we're beginning the day with the normalcy of cuddling, and then getting back to work. There's alot for these boy's to learn!

❄️JACK!
🐾So sweet! He's a great companion!

02/01/2022

🐾Jack, is with us for boarding.
He was a good sport, during our lesson with Luna this morning.👏
.
Luna is an 8-month-old, Golden Retriever, and we are unbelievably impressed by her, and her ability to understand new concepts quickly. Next lesson we're going to be teaching her soft mouth retrieval, the initial training for basic service tasks. 🐕‍🦺
She is so young, and still has so much to learn.📚
