Teaching Dogs - Training People
We help your companion dog be the best they can be. Most often your dog comes to live with us and is trained in a home environment, so that we can reproduce challenges you face with your dog in your own home. We teach dogs how to "be". We then train YOU, how to keep up those skills, and how to communicate effectively with your dog. In our residency training program,

we do all the hard work, and they your job is to keep up what they learned and start enjoying your dog! We also offer programs where we can work with you one on one if that is your preference. Training help is always available even after your dog is trained.....as we offer FREE Group Polishing Sessions and FREE Outward Hound trips (hikes and walks to various locales in order to socialize the dogs) to all dogs who graduate from one of our programs. Specialties:
Aggression, Jumping, Biting, Nipping, Pulling on the leash, how to get your dog to come when called, Housebreaking, Crate Training, Potty Training, how to get your dog to walk nicely on a leash, and much, much more. We can prepare your dog to be a therapy dog too!

❤️ these two together. Best buds. Bears vacation ends today, and Dante will miss him. I threw my back out again so, although I will miss him too, I won’t miss the bending!

Bailey and Fitz are small enough I elevated their kennels by placing them on my recliner love seat! When it’s bedtime they just hop up and into it, and I also feed them in it. This is a good tip for anyone with a bad back. Charlie’s crate is on top of Dante’s crate and I have stairs leading up into it. No bending! He is also fed in there. Dante-I can feed him up on my grooming table, which has a ramp leading to it.

All in person sessions are now being scheduled out to January!

I will offer online consults starting in a couple of weeks for folks who can not wait until January to get help.

Well done, Littles, well done.

It’s me, Bear the Boxer. I’m back, and this time - I’m not afraid you, little Clara the toy dog!

100% correct!

Put your hand out... just let him sniff your hand ❌
She's nervy with anyone new, just crouch down ❌
Oh heck no....
I appreciate approaching a dog is also unique to each individual dog and the situation you are in at the time but please don't approach a dog you do not know with an outstretched hand or crouch down.
There are reasons hands and faces are the most bitten parts on a human.
Crouching down puts you in a position where you are unable to move quickly, and because you don't know this dog (and they do not know you).....you may need to move away very quickly.

A sniff of a hand is NOT permission from a dog to touch them.
It doesn't mean you are now friends and have built trust, it means they sniffed your hand which was thrust right in front of them.

Many dogs will very warily get closer and sniff an outstretched hand then immediately back off if they sense you are suddenly nervous around them, they register your respiration/heart rate has changed (some are aware your adrenaline has risen too).... and they may bite that same hand if they feel threatened enough.

Your hand is in very easy reach for them.
As is your face if you crouch down.....
