Just a little clip of one of our favorite exercises for our board and train program, using doggy daycare for an awesome and extremely hard distraction to really proof a dog's stationary behaviors and really establish some self-control! As you can see here, Gus has an absolute blast in daycare! True to his breed, he is very energetic. His owners struggled to put a cap on that energy, that's where we come in. We help the dog establish a thought process, through consistency and predictability, that will set them up for the most success! The product is what you see here, a trained and happy dog, with the capability to exhibit a high level of self-control! Way to go Gus! 🙌🏻
Stop wishing your dog could do it, they can! It's just a phone call away! 🐾 337-226-5083 🐾

Bella is a fresh 6 month old gsd, her parents struggled with the typical behaviors of a young pooch; hyperactivity, jumping, chewing, pulling on a leash, and inability to settle. Bella also struggled with some dog reactivity at the end of the leash. Through appropriate introductions and building self-control, Bella is a much calmer and manageable pooch that exhibits a high level of self-control in the midst of some pretty hard distractions! Way to go Bella!

Saturday morning rush hour. And this isn't even half the pups we have with us.
Just doing some reps of down from standing, while in motion, with Bailey. Working down from standing makes for a much clearer line of communication and expectations for your pooch. Doing downs from a sit compromises your dogs' queue discrimination by making the dog offer the down after you've asked them to sit, essentially making both "sit" and "down" have the same meaning. Training better, every day, every dog.

Bella shows us that even with excitable and playful pooches, "place" can be established and "place" is fun!

These paw-some pooches are wrapping up their board and trains this week. They came in bonkers and unmanageable, not having the slightest clue what self-control was. Now look at them, staying in their stationary behavior "place", even in the face of some pretty hard distractions! Way to go pups! 🐾💛🖤

This little pooch's mom came to us with ONE request, to be able to walk her dog inside, outside, and in any scenario. She was tired of her dog pulling her everywhere and being focused on everything and anything but her! So we did a quick, 24 hour board and train and gave her just that. It's amazing what the right tool and a little clear communication and boundaries will do!

Gino is in our 3 lesson program. This is 15 minutes into his very FIRST lesson. He's already showing some awesome self-control, his mom couldn't believe it! Your dog can do it too, let us show you how! 💛🖤

This is what the end of your pup's board and train can look like! Awesome self-control, even with the most challenging distractions. We love utilizing doggy daycare to really proof stationary behaviors! These pooches cleaned up nicely and went home to some very happy pet-parents! Let us make you a happy pet-parent as well; a good, well-behaved pooch is just a phone call away! 337-226-5083
*On an unrelated note, Disco the doodle (the pooch walking with the trainer's hand in his mouth), is such a goofy goob! We love seeing him and his sister daily for daycare! ♥️ Does anyone else have a doodle with goofy behaviors? If so, we'd love to hear about them in the comments!

This was day 3 of our board and train program for Koba, Buster, and Punk! We aren't too worried about a couple mistakes here and there at this point, it's still way too early to expect otherwise. The main goal at this point in time is to make sure they are starting to exhibit some level of self-control and understanding of boundaries in the midst of distractions, which they are hitting this milestone perfectly! Also, shout out to Koba (far left) for exhibiting some understanding of sit/stay at a distance this early on! Place is an excellent tool to use to build your at-distance work.
Your dog can do it too, let us prove it! 337-226-5083

A short clip of the tail end of Kaddo's session this morning. We are working on building a send to place, down/stays from a distance, and some basic recalls, on and off the leash, all in one 10 minute routine! Working on multiple tasks in one session is an awesome way to help build queue-discrimination. He's doing fantastic! And of course, zoomies are always a good way to end a great session!

Old dogs can learn new tricks.
We didn't just want "Slim" coming when called, we want him coming when called when he is distracted focusing on something else.
"Slim" and his owners have done fantastic with their training lessons, and Slims recalls looks great.
Love our Happy Yappy Hour pooches! Yappy Howloween everyone! 🖤🧡

Lillian, our Junior apprentice, proofing stationary behaviors with her service/therapy dog in training and Remi, the board and train student. All parties are doing so well! We love teaching and working with this young lady, she's a rock-star!

Big congrats to Lillian and her service-dog Marley! They earned their CGC today. So proud of all her hard work!
Lillian is in our Junior Apprenticeship Progam. She's learning hands-on and academic skills to prepare her to become the dog trainer she wants to be when she grows up. At just 9 years old, she is doing an absolutely amazing job with any task we send her way! She even has clients of her own!
Marley is exclusively trained by Lillian, we give her instruction but she puts in all the hard work! In these few clips we highlight Marley's structured heel, sit/stay, and come-when-called. Our goal for Marley is to continue his service-dog work, keep earning his AKC titles, AND to become a Certified Therapy Dog. Big goals! We have no doubt in our mind that this team will reach every single one of them!
Piper is almost competition ring ready as she practices her folding down in motion.
Just a quick minute of some puppy training.
Puppy training is a fantastic way to socialize your pup with others, and develop a positive association with working with their owners.
Little morning play-sesh with the pound pups we are temporarily housing for Beauregard Parish Sheriff’s Office Animal Control so they could make room for evacuees pets'. There are a few of our personal pooches mixed in the bunch but almost ALL of these dogs in the video, plus some not in the video frame, are available for adoption! They are all great dogs, and they are all clearly dog-friendly! Reach out to Krista West at the pound if anyone is looking for a new best friend!
Spotlight on Beasley! Yes, Beasley! Most of you guys know she's been our longest resident up here, going on 9 months..😞 We've been working hard to integrate her into different dog groups and she's been doing amazing! We believe being dog friendly/neutral will open so many doors for her! Give us a call if you want to meet her!
