Mel’s Training

As promise, here is Mr. Sully putting in some work during his first session!🤓 We mainly focused on impulse control with coming in and out of the kennel, “climb” and loose leash walking🦮 This little boy is definitely a smart cookie, take a look for yourself to see how our first session went. Come back tomorrow to see how our last session compares to the first.😁😍

Had one of my private lesson kiddos last week! This handsome Labbie is Luka 🖤 This smart cookie already knows all of his basics but we are still young and excitable.😬 However this is the first time Luka is away from home without his mom, so we are a little nervous about being somewhere knew without her 🥺 He did great as the day continued! 😁😁 Stay tuned to the second video that shows he settle in 😊

🦴Little pupdate🦴 As you may have guessed, little Miss Rosie is a ball of excitement and energy and loves to meet new people (especially at doorways😳) however that is not always the safest thing to do.😅 So we decided to work on impulse control going in and out of doorways. Of course, starting off small with no one at the door or any major distractions other than the door opening. Take a look at this very short video to see how Miss Rosie did 🤞🏻😬🤞🏻 🦮🐕‍🦺🦮🐕‍🦺🦮🐕‍🦺🦮🐕‍🦺🦮🐕‍🦺🦮🐕‍🦺🦮🐕‍🦺🦮🐕‍🦺 Do you have a door dasher and needing some help keeping your pup inside? Shoot me a message or give me a call to schedule an evaluation so we can get the ball rolling on some impulse training. ** call or text 618-612-7470 📱

‼️Mid-week Pupdate‼️ We decided that the squeaky toys weren’t enough so we brought in the ‘ big guns’😂😂 Who better to bring in! Baby B got to make another tiny friend. And of course Rosie was very excited but also skeptical of B. Being little like Rosie it’s hard not to feel a little pressure from a bigger dog. Even though Beatrice isn’t a ‘big’ dog 😂😅 Take a look at this two cuties putting in some work!!💕 

Rosie Update Pt. 2✌🏻 Yesterday we started to work on our recall command, ’come’. And she was doing fairly well with it! 😁 However, we did take steps back on our ‘down’. Just like us, dogs can have rough days and not want to work.🫤😑 As you can see that definitely did not stop us from practicing and getting back in the swing of things! Take a look at how Rosie was doing at the beginning of her week.😮‍💨

Little Rosie Update!🌹 We are continuing to work on our basic obedience through our major distractions. I’m very proud of Miss Rosie!! 👏🏼👏🏼 Take a look at this little puff ball 🤍

HAPPY HAPPY MONDAY!😁 Last week we started using some major distractions for Miss Rosie and you all got to see how it started. But we forgot to show you how it’s going, so here is a short video of one of our last sessions from last week!😅😁

Another Rosie Update! 🌹❤️ Yesterday Rosie was able to bring some of her favorite toys to training to potentially caused distractions for her.😬 Needless to say, they worked perfectly! 🤗😁 With going back-and-forth between training and playing, we are able to make an on and off switch for Miss Rosie. This will definitely come in handy when we get excited about guests coming over. 😁 Another plus she’ll be nice and tired by the end of the day for her parents. Who doesn’t like a tired puppy! 🤣🤣 Wish this girl some luck on working through these “new distractions “🍀😁

‼️Rosie Update‼️ This little furball is doing great for her first week of training! We had to borrow a couple of scrap cats toys to see if we would mind our commands with a little distraction. Needless to say she was not impressed! 😂😒 Take a look at tomorrow’s video to see us up the ante with some squeaky toy distractions. 🤗

We got to see the very beginning, so let’s take a look at how the day ended for little miss Rosie!😬😁 As I mentioned, she was unsure in our first session and didn’t really test “climb“ or leash walking. But she started to warm up as the day went on here is a video of one of our last sessions from yesterday. Take a look tomorrow to see another Rosie update!🌹🤍

As promised, a short video of Little Rosie’s first training session! Take a look at this little girl acting like she is a professional from the word GO! But don’t let her fool you, she is still a very excitable fluff ball. 🫨 She is still just a little unsure with being in a new place and learning some new things. 🤓 As the day has gone on she has opened up more and more. 😁 We are going to take full advantage of her unsure feeling and jump into some ‘climb’ and leash walk!🐕☺️

Happy Friday eve! 🎉 Athena has been a rockstar with her basic obedience here recently! So we decided to up the ante. And bring in a major distraction for her, another dog.🤪 Who better than my right hand lady, BABY B 🐝🤍 Our first session with B with was a hectic event, Athena reverted, back to her wild child ways, and disregarded command.🤪🫨 We knew it was going to be excitement just not as much as we got.😂 A short video of our second session with B, which was a totally different outcome!! 😁🤗
