SNACKS ARE PRINCESS APPROVED 👑When a friend of mine shared a post about a kid making his way through entrepreneurship by making dog biscuits, I immediately became a fan of @the_dogbiscuitco and started supporting Alex by making sure Princess was stocked with his snacks. After following his journey on social media and seeing his work ethic, sense of community, and leadership I was excited to invite Alex and his mom to an event and finally meet them in person. I’ve watched Alex speak at his local city council and I’ve seen him raise funds for the pets effected in the devastating Maui fires. His commitment to community development is what really made him shine to me.This kid is going to go far. What were YOU doing at 13?! Because this kid is far surpassing anything I knew as a young teen. Show your support by grabbing a few bags from his website! Your dog will be soooo happy 😆 #americancanyon #thedogbiscuitco #gabbysgooddogs #dogtraining #sfbayarea #localbusiness #smallbusiness #northbayarea #solanocounty #eastbayarea #concord #bayarea #dogtrainer #community

Art dogs 🐾The level of obedience and control you need to have over your beasts at shows like this is unparalleled to these two. Princess and Tisci were sure show stoppers. Most, if not all of the dogs we saw in there were reactive and threatened just by their confident presence. They both really showed out this weekend. I love deciphering the empathy behind an artists piece of work. They put so much of their soul into their pieces. I had an epiphany that dog training is also artistic. My empathy, my heart, my soul and my emotions drench every dog that comes through my home. I lead every training program, session, and class with empathy. Giving yourself perspective in training is crucial. Dog training always needs to be fair. The biggest questions I’m asked about board and train programs is: will my dog still have the same personality? Will the remember me? The answer is absolutely YES. What will be different is your dogs mannerisms and the way in which they communicate with you. Communication is built on respect, fairness, joy, and accountability. If you can’t take your dog to busy and prestigious without feeling overwhelmed or stressed, give me a call and let’s change that.
Neutrality is always the goal. Your dog doesn’t have to like other dogs or greet them. I want a dog focused on its handler, not another dog no matter how goofy or out of control it is.

Focused heeling is not a natural behavior, it’s a built behavior. Our journey to #fancyfeet has not been easy! Our foundation started off rocky and flat but we were determined to figure it out, even if that meant a couple *years* of discipline and a few menty b’s along the way. We are still working out some kinks and perfecting our form but we’re having fun doing it. Dog training doesn’t always go the way you want it to or as fast as you’d wish it would but if you’re determined and disciplined, results will follow.
Balanced training = offleash freedom in public. People can have differing views on balanced training and e collars but nothing compares to real life RESULTS. Princess is happy and has more freedom in public because shes has clarity on what is asked of her, shes conditioned and professionally trained on an e collar. Follow me on IG @gabbysgooddogs for more details, tips, tricks, and to see real life results.
RAISING ROTTIES ✨💖My favorite breed of all. Their aloof, obnoxious, yet affectionate and stubborn demeanors get me every time. I’ve got so much love and passion for this breed, it’s insane. I have lived almost every year of my life with a Rottweiler by my side and I plan to train and work with as many as I can. What you see here is 3 very different #Rotties coming from different lines. Behavior characteristics are displayed vastly different in each dog. Just because they’re all rotties, doesn’t mean they work the same or even act the same. Each of these dogs required a personal training program tailored to the individual dog to become the incredible pet that they are. 2 of these rotties live in apartment buildings. Yes, you heard that right. Rottweilers can be apartment dogs if given proper direction via training so they can express themselves both mentally and physically. Their humans take the time to put in walks and training sessions through out their day. What I love most about training is that the methods for a Rottweiler are NOOO different than they are for a Chihuahua! No matter the size, no matter the breed, the concepts on primal functionality and neuroscience are the same. If you want to work your dogs obedience, DM me to get started!
[UPDATE] Remember Caine?! He came to me dysregulated, reactive, and chunky this past summer. He was a young buck and his behavior was getting beyond what his humans could handle. I recommended new food with a higher protein and fat content and put him through a 4 week board and train. 4 months post board and train, I asked his dad his 3 favorite things about getting Caine trained and he said: ✨He’s so much more easier to walk in public. ✨He responds immediately when we call him while out at the grocery stores. ✨My favorite of all is, hes way more calm when we get home from work AND when it’s time to eat. Caine was a big tough boy when he wanted something (especially food) and he would power his way into getting what he wanted. Teaching him manners and communication strategies taught him impulse control and trust that he too, would get a reward when his behavior was acceptable. I’m so happy to see him not just doing well, but THRIVING in everyday life with his family and his @mdhs_football family. I’m also thrilled to see what the right food is doing for his body. Fillers, carbs, and unnecessary garbage in a lot of kibble is doing your dog a disservice. The proof is literally in the poop. 💩 and I see a lot of it….. changing his diet to a high protein and high fat diet fed his muscles and bodies the way it should. One more note… I develop relationships with these dogs. I think about them often and wonder how they’re doing. Seeing them and hearing about how their lives have transformed keeps me going. I’m so thankful I got to not only help a dog, but an entire family. P.S. Once a red devil, always a red devil 😈 ❤️
