Dog training ๐ค Handler coaching
No one talks about how hard it can be to trust your dog, especially when they have a history of reactivity or aggression!
We understand and weโre here to help!
Each of our custom training programs include handler education so that you are equipped with an understanding of canine behavior and body language that will help you set your dog up for success in every situation.

Before and After? But at what cost?
Why you'll never see a flashy before and after on our platform:
We start training on Day 1. Our goal is always to set reactive dogs up for success. Every positive experience is layered on top of the last to build confidence and reduce reactivity.
We wish all of our friends and clients a Happy Hanukkah filled with joy, light, and lasting memories made surrounded by family! ๐พโจ
May this Festival of Lights bring warmth and happiness to you and yours. ๐

Nail trimming is something that your dog will experience regularly for the duration of their lifetime.
Because of this, we strive to make nail trims as easy and low stress as possible.
Here are a few tips for low stress nail trimming:
1. If you have a puppy, be sure to handle the paws excessively and trim nails early and often.
2. Keep sessions short if your dog loses patience easily. Trim one paw, or even one nail each day.
3. Set yourself up for success. If you need a second set of hands to hold or reward the dog while you work, wait until you have assistance so your frustration doesn't discourage your pup.
4. Leave it to the professionals. If nail trimming is not something you are comfortable with, allow your groomer or vet to trim your dog's nails on a regular and frequent schedule.

Did you know that therapy dogs can earn AKC titles for their efforts?
Therapy dogs are usually handled by their owners who generously volunteer their time and resources to visiting places like hospitals, nursing homes, schools or victims of trauma.
These special canines offer comfort to people experiencing stress, loneliness, illness and the like. They must be very calm and gentle to account for the vulnerabilities of the people they work with and the environments they work in.
If you think your dog may be suited to this type of work and volunteering your time is something that interests you, we are happy to help you make a difference in your community.

Let's talk distractions!
Once a behavior or training concept is successful in a controlled environment, we can begin introducing distractions to proof the skill. Distractions should be introduced appropriately for the dog's skill level in order to improve confidence. These are some examples of distractions at different skill levels.
๐ข Beginner: A new setting, food nearby, in the presence of another person or people.
๐ Intermediate: Around another dog, in a quiet public setting, the presence of livestock.
๐ด Advanced: Around many other dogs, around prey animals, a busy public setting.

Allie the #bulldog is learning to play the Look at That game, which teaches her to engage and then disengage from things that she loses her focus onโฆand that thing is dogs. Allie is learning that ignoring other dogs actually has more value with rapid reinforcement from the clicker. She is nervous and wants her space, so the first thing we do is learn not to even worry about them. #goodgirl

Scout learning to play the Paper Plate Recall game (one of our favorite staples from the IACP!) ๐
This is a simple game that promotes three skills-
-a dog holding a stay while food is dropped
-a send away (away from the handler) and
-recall off of food
We love this game because itโs quite simple, but thereโs lots of ways to build variety into it! You can build one skill at a time, proof your release cues, add distance, potentially hide the food, and so much more. Scout is a big fan of games that really test if sheโs listening (or just guessing?), so this is a fun way to build both confidence and obedience at the same time. #paperplaterecall

Happy 4th birthday, Complete Canine Training!
CCT was established in 2018 with the concept that each dog is an individual, and that every dog owner deserves training and methods that tailors their lifestyle, including modern training tools.
We have helped thousands of dogs and families in South Florida since then- but those dogs and families have helped us grow too! CCT would not be successfully standing without the trust that our dear clients put in us everyday. And for that, we thank you dearly! Dogs are an intimate part of how we live and function everydayโฆa sincere thank you for allowing me to help you reach your personal goals. You see, I get something out of it too. We are in it for the journey, not the destination.
CCT promises to deliver more this year and really up the ante- be on the look out for how we are looking to add more value into what we provide for pet families. We strive and pride ourselves upon training and relationship that goes above and beyond the expectation. This includes bringing back group classes, more outside resources, improved training gear, extended client support, and more!
Dogs are not our whole livesโฆbut they certainly make our lives whole. โค๏ธ

Thanks Proper Pups Snacks for a fresh order of snuffle balls- my dogsโ absolute favorite! How do you provide enrichment for your own dogs? ๐ฆด
Providing enrichment for your dog can help prevent boredom- in fact, my dogs are working for their dinners! This gives them something to do, works their brain, and tires them out. Dinner served in a bowl is boring! This is a fun way to break up our routine, or give them something to look forward to.
We met Proper Pups at the IACP conference in 2019 in Colorado, and highly recommend their products! ๐๐ป check out their FB page for inventory!
