Boosting the morale of those in need!
Today we were welcomed by Peak Behavioral Health, to boost the morale of the patients. It was an honor to help kids, teens, smile. It’s always a blessing to work with Bruno!
I demonstrated scent work with Bruno. Provide the patience with something educational and fun!
Training the soft sides of therapy/service dog training
This little one, with a heart of lion. Learning how to be a therapy/service dog!

Mo is a pure breed Frenchy, eighteen weeks old. Thriving in our program.
Rehabilitation
These two used to attack each other. To the point they needed to go to the vet. They absolutely did not get along next to each other. They couldn’t be walked on leash. After 8 days we are here!
Front/Recall Tip
Performing the front/recall. Follow the three S’s. Short, simple, and sweet. Practice it no longer than two to three minutes at a time. Have the front/recall a straight line of sight. Keeping it simple. Now make it sweet. When your dog comes to you. Be sweet, loving, rewarding, to your dog. You want your dog to feel completely desired, wanted, and loved. So your dogs had excitement to come to you. Which the Three S’s accomplish.
I was not going to share this. Because I am emotional about it. Bruno on 20240725 turned 9. I personally want him to stop aging. German Shepherd (GSD) have shorter life spans compared to other breeds.
Bruno has been a warrior on my left side for 9 years. He served with me proudly. He reenlisted in the army with me. Bruno lead the charge as we started Paws Down Best Dog Training (PDBDT). People don’t love PDBDT because of me. They love Bruno. Bruno is our cornerstone. Bruno has helped me recover from a right shoulder surgery. A severe neck surgery. Also intense physical therapy. Also some of my darkest chapters. He didn’t allow me to commit suicide.
Bruno has also brought me the brightest chapters. Attracted @autumn__tree into our lives starting beautiful chapters in this world. But he has brightened up so many others lives. Visiting grade schools, high schools, colleges, Military bases, and more. Putting smiles on so many faces. When I see him. I think I want to reflect his boldness, happiness, and drive for others.
Bruno has the ability of just being shock and awe. I love competing with Bruno. His determination and intelligence leaves me speechless. Nothing is more stunning than to see him work.
I would die for you Bruno! Happy birthday 🎊🎈🎉
Thank you Bruno for always being my battle buddy.
This is our best work yet with a dog that was going to be euthanized. If you wonder is a dog worth saving? Can it really make a difference to the community and families? The answer unequivocally yes! Absolutely a dog saved can bring consistency of love, and joy.
Felix was going to die at animal services. He was reactive to dogs. He didn’t have manners. His stay was coming to a halt. After three weeks of our training. We now have him visiting the elderly. Putting a smile on there face. Allowing them to have something to look forward to every Tuesday. Breaking the up the normalcy of their day. It’s a huge win for the elderly homes and families that have their loved ones placed there.
