There is no better time for change than the fall season🍂.

So after lots of thinking (and crying 😭), I have decided that less stress, more time for loved ones and self-care, and more overall stability outweighs my desire to be a business owner.

At the end of this year I am hanging up my professional pet dog trainer hat.

I will no longer be taking pet dog clients and Dogs Decoded will not longer be a training business. It’s a very bitter sweet decision that feels a bit sad, but also very freeing. It is just time to move on to other adventures professionally and get back to having fun with my dogs and training for the pure love and joy of it.

If you are a previous client, I will still make myself available to help, so feel free to reach out! And I want to thank all of my clients for allowing me to help you reach your goals and build a closer relationship with your dog. It was a fun and always interesting and wild ride!

I will still very much be a part of the dog world, focusing on training my dogs, getting clubs going, coaching and maybe work on some educational/teaching side projects with my homies.

And maybe I will feel cute and get a puppy or two 🥰.

We’ll see… 😉

What a great week at conference! It is so fulfilling to be around other animal and science nerds all day! So many great conversations, debates and discoveries. And it was so great to see old friends and watch them present.

Also - After 3 intense days of class and testing, I am now officially LIMA certified! Woot!

ASH 🐶

Ash has joined our puppy daycare to work on socialization and being a bit calmer all around. He is a social butterfly and wants everyone to be his friend, but can get himself too excited. In a traditional daycare setting he literally plays all day. While that is very cute it is not healthy for puppies to go all day long with no down time.

SANTO 🐶

Santo is attending our Day Training Program to get a jumpstart on his leash manners and work through some pretty deep fear stuff. He has developed some coping skills that he thinks are keeping him safe while keeping others away. We are going to help him work on that self-confidence and be a polite citizen, even when he is a bit uncomfortable.

We LOVE getting updates from our clients! ❤️

"Aurora has done remarkably well in meeting my friend’s dog. We allowed them to be off leash together for the first time earlier this week and it went great. Amazing progress to see. Beginning of this year didn’t think something like this would ever be possible. " Well done, Aurora
