Percy the Bully mix working on staying engaged with his mom in a semi busy park during a private lesson.
Bringing food out doesn’t guarantee that your dog will pay attention to you. Percy can get overstimulated very easy and a busier environment exacerbates that.

Training breeds that are classically “untrainable” or “lazy” is one of my absolute favorite things to do because I own those breeds and I love proving people wrong.
This is Tater. Tater is an English Bulldog who is working on a recall in his group class. He’s so food driven and fun to work with!

Check out Gus the Saint Bernard playing in front of a dog park with a border collie who likes to stare, one of Gus’s biggest triggers.
Play is a great way to create engagement and positive associations with and around triggers. So when a dog has toy drive it’s one of my favorite things to do. Play.

Chunk the German Shepherd working on some loose leash walking and his mom is working on handling skills with a leash during his private lesson.
Chunk is a large reactive dog and like most owners they’ve gotten comfortable with walking Chink by holding the leash as close to his collar as possible. So we are teaching her to give him a little bit more leash so he doesn’t feel all that pressure!

Juneau the Samoyed working on ignoring neutral dog Dover during her private lesson!
Juneau is a young dog and lots of times that comes with a lot of emotions. Emotions come with behaviors like barking, lunging, jumping. So teaching a young dog that their emotions are okay but other behaviors are more valuable is super important!

Oliver the lab showing a complete 180 degree transformation in just 2 lessons working on loose leash walking!
What’s interesting is Oliver’s problem had nothing to do with the leash but he was so nervous and over stimulated in his environment he only knew to pull to get back home. Now both his and his mom’s favorite parts of their day is their daily walk!

Poppy the Bully mix working on engagement and dog reactivity during her neutral dog session!
Poppy didn’t just start with a neutral dog session. We first had to teach her to practice decompression skills like sniffing and being able to take food in public! These things don’t come naturally to all dogs and sometimes an extra step is required!
