Improper play between dogs is one of the most common causes of fights. When one dog doesn’t recognize another dog’s signals that playtime is over, things can quickly escalate from fun to conflict. That’s why it’s so important for humans to step in and help set clear boundaries. Using an e-collar correctly can be a great tool to interrupt over-arousal and teach dogs when they’re getting too rough or too intense during play.

✨ Meet Luna ✨

Luna came to Elevate to build her confidence around other dogs and people — and to help her parents feel more at ease taking her out into new environments.

Since joining our Day Training program, Luna has truly started to shine! She’s grown so much in her confidence and comfort level here, and now walks in like she owns the place. 😄

Her progress has been incredible to watch — she’s more relaxed, focused, and eager to take on new challenges every day. We love seeing how far she’s come and can’t wait to see what she accomplishes next!

As balanced trainers, we reward good behavior and correct bad behavior based on the dog’s actions. Sounds simple—but it isn’t. Because sometimes the corrections we have to make may seem harsh to some, many owners struggle with this phase.

We call it the messy middle. It’s that in-between stage—where the dog is no longer getting away with everything, but isn’t fully behaving yet. It’s uncomfortable. It can look messy. And it can feel overwhelming.

Here’s the hard truth: how this phase is handled can determine a dog’s future. In some cases, it’s the difference between a dog staying in the family, being rehomed, or worse. It isn’t always pretty, and it rarely looks like the Instagram-perfect dog training moment.

Most of our clients arrive at this point at their wit’s end—but they’re willing to do what it takes. They lean into the tools, trust the instruction, and push through the frustration. That’s when real transformation happens.

Not everyone can bring themselves to do what is necessary in the messy middle. Those who can’t often continue struggling with the same issues for years. For us trainers, many times the hardest part isn’t getting the dog over the hump—it’s getting the owner to push through it, stay consistent, and embrace the process.

Because the messy middle isn’t just about training—it’s about growth, leadership, and the bond between dog and human. The owners who make it through don’t just get a better-behaved dog—they gain a partner for life
