For those who never got to meet my dog. This was my girl, Sunshine. She had some energy until the end. Even with some pain issues. Sure do miss her. She actually didn't have a remote collar on for this walk since I intended to do a long, slow walk with her, but she had other plans. Listening without the collar should always be the goal, though wearing the collar when off-leash should always be the norm.

Do as I say, not as I do, you! :)

Mary Ellen and Max made great progress in today's session. Their home will have twin humans arriving in March so they're taking their training seriously. Next week we work with Max's sibling, Marley, to ensure she is also well- behaved and she around the new babies.

Nice work, Mary Ellen!

Tina and Girly are getting ready to walk the neighborhood on the long leash during our next lesson. Tina told me today she never envisioned being able to take Girly on a nice walk due to her fears of noises and novel objects they encounter. Look for the video next week!

The sun came out giving us the perfect day to introduce a walk on the long leash through the neighborhood to Katie and her people. She was marvelous. We passed a couple of dogs along the way and she was able to focus on Robert rather than lose her mind and go after them.

Great work Robert and Janice. So nice to see Katie in a calm, relaxed state rather than the frantic, anxious girl you'd been living with!

Keeping up the good work and making progress with Astra!

Our Story

At The Developing Canine, we specialize in off leash reliability so you can be sure your dog will listen to you around your home and beyond the garden gate. We've been training animals since 1984 and can help you enjoy your dog to the fullest. Carolyn Weinbaum has been a professional animal trainer since 1984 when she began her career at the Miami Seaquarium training and presenting shows with Orcas, Pacific white-sided dolphins, California sea lions and Pacific harbor seals.

In 1989 Carolyn was asked to develop a training program with the New Orleans' Audubon Zoo’s five California sea lions. While in New Orleans, Carolyn expanded her training skills by training white rhinos, red wolves, and primates.

After obtaining her certification as a dog trainer in 1995 from a nationally recognized dog training school, Carolyn founded The Developing Canine Behavior and Training.
