Can that tiny wire support all that weight?…

The wire that is your stress and sanity.

That weight that is the perceived happiness of your dog doing “good”…or worse…”Perfect”.

Takes me back to one of my favorite scenes from one of my favorite shows.

HBO’s The Wire. Gritty Baltimore cop drama.

Here goes…

Lester: Tell me something, Jimmy.
How exactly do you think it all ends? A parade, a golden watch, a shining Jimmy McNulty Day moment? When you bring in a case so sweet, everybody gets together and says ‘Aw s**t, he was right all along! We shoulda listened to the man.’
The job will not save you, Jimmy. It won’t make you whole, it won’t fill your ass up.

Jimmy: I don’t know, a good case...

Lester:…ends. They all end. The handcuffs go click, and it’s over. And the next morning, it’s just you in your room with yourself.

Jimmy: Until the next case...

Lester: Booy, you need something outside of this here.

Jimmy: Like what?

Lester: Hey hey, a life, Jimmy. A life! You know what that is? It’s the s**t that happens while you’re waiting for moments that never come!
———————————————————————————————-

Don’t miss real life with your dog chasing crumbs of “happiness”.

Your dog didn’t sign up for that, so don’t sentence them to it.

In all my years of dog training whether it’s K9 or Pets no matter how well things went there was always tomorrow.

Train with your dog because you see the benefits of it for both of you.

Not because you’re chasing something, but because you’ve found it.

The ability to do anything as team enjoying one another’s company.

Your dog’s behavior or obedience will not save you or make you whole.

That is not their purpose.

Klaus and Theo (The two hunks in the pic) live fulfilling and amazing lives because there is so much more to their Pet Parents lives than them.

Stop waiting for the imaginary ending and start living in the moments with your dog that matter right now.

That’s life with a dog.

Real life.

Too Easy!

The rule doesn’t force the action.

It’s intoxicating to believe a Dog Trainer, Fitness Coach, Teacher, etc is going to establish guidelines and a schedule that will make your dreams come true 🧞‍♂️

You’ll just follow what they say at a consistent regimented pace and the rest will fall into place.

Wrong.

will still find a way to argue with me on this and I love him for it 😂

“Life finds a way” - Ian Malcolm, Jurassic Park 🦕

More like it gets in the way.

Things are unpredictable everyday. Factor in whatever your current mood is and look out!

You will not do what you’re supposed to, set out to or were told to everyday.

You know that’s a fantasy, but here comes the good news.

Just do things “Dailyish” ✌🏼

Do things more days than not.

With your dog please 🙏🏼

Take your seven day week and do something at least four of them.

Dogs are fantastical creatures, but we’re the illusionists 🪄

We believe a rule, or set of rules will force accomplishment to occur therefore making success inevitable and automatic.

Rules exist to begin with not because you’re lazy, but because you don’t trust yourself to get things done without them.

If you lack confidence a rigid rule might serve as your substitute to make up for same.

If you’re a self-punishing perfectionist you use them as a way not to stray.

If you don’t do something it’s because you didn’t want to.

A rule or system will not force desire you don’t possess.

I don’t think or put in the work because someone is looking over their shoulder.

No such rule exists.

Even the most disciplined Dog Trainers I know like are still making a conscious choice to do or do not.

Life with your dog isn’t about serving rules 🤮

It’s about rules to serve your life together as a team.

Jake the Doodle’s Owners don’t have to tell me what they did.

They display it with their actions.

Period.

Do not underestimate the little ones…

I believe way too many Dog Trainers shy away from smaller dogs because they feel they bring the BIGGEST headaches 😫

A lot of folks don’t take them seriously to begin with and this where the issues are born.

Have respect for each and every dog.

You may have a breed preference or a look that just knocks your socks off 😍

But all dogs deserve to get the most out of this world in the short time they’re in it 🙏🏼

Too Easy.

My 3 C’s for public outing success! 🐾

1. Control, but not the kind where you’re hanging on for dear life! Do I have positive control of my dog in any given environment? I’d better or else I’m a liability to others. I control my bubble 🫧 because I know what’s best for dog and I’m an advocate for their safety and well-being.

2. Casual. I keep outings smooth and casual. Regardless of what I’m feeling in any given moment I will portray an image of stoicism. Very relaxed, but NEVER complacent. I want my dog to interpret outings no different than a stroll in the neighborhood.

3. Confidence. My confidence stems from being capable. Without the opportunities I’ve had and created for myself I would not possess this. I cannot predict what will be thrown at me and my dog, but I will respond accordingly.

Too Easy 😎

If you don’t currently possess these or need help just reach out!

Like muscles 💪🏼 they must be developed! Take action!

Take a breath and step back.

The best Owners (and K9 Handlers) I’ve ever trained are the ones who are hardest on themselves.

Now before you nod your head approvingly and start to pin that on your chest like a medal go ahead and stop 🛑😂

Being tough on yourself certainly means you care, but it also can’t be your detriment.

If it is it’ll hit you and your dog like a pile of bricks 🧱

Let me let you in on a dirty secret 🤫

In K9 our world revolved around percentages and pass or fail scenarios.

90% accuracy to find them drugs and 95% for bombs 💣

That’s a continuous grade and if you’ve attended school at any level beyond pre-K you know one or a couple bad scores can destroy an average.

Same with obedience in that world.

Dog does it yay 😁 Dog doesn’t and someone’s on your butt 🍑

Day after day of that under a microscope 🔬 can be exhausting as you’d imagine.

You may begin to miss the bigger picture.

A dog and a person doing something and enjoying themselves.

Hazel (Pictured) and her Pet Parents are pretty incredible like a lot of our clients.

When we’re training I get to stand back and call the shots setting the tone for the next rep.

What I really get to do is be in awe filled with pride.

No grades. No scores. Your dog and you doing things TOGETHER in your space in a crazy world 😂

Be tough on yourselves.

Be tough on yourselves to acknowledge yourselves.

If you’re someone doing the work and making the effort your dog is getting an amazing life.

Don’t forget that.

Too Easy.

It’s a BRAND NEW YEAR 🥳…

In reality it’s another new day like everyday to make a positive impact on your dog’s life and by doing so…Your own.

One of two things will happen though.

You’ll either talk about it or be about it.

You’ll do something that makes a difference or blow enough hot air 🗣️ to fill a balloon up 🎈

Don’t have time? Doesn’t take hours 🕰️

It’s about moments.

The moments you make for your dog OR create for them.

Feel like I’ve already said too much 🫢🤫

More to come on that.

MUCH MORE 😌

Shoot me a message.

Thunder bout to drop some knowledge below 🤓

See that face?

Over thousands of years of domestication the facial makeup of Dogs changed.

Those longing “Give in to me” eyes are no accident.

Dogs are the second most successful mammals on planet earth 🌎 for a reason.

Out of all the animals in the world they’re the ones who’ve been there by our side.

Reaping the benefits 😝

Survival of the friendliest 😊

Roman’s in a festive mood 🎄

🚨⬇️ “IS MY DOG STUPID?” ⬇️🚨

I hear this more times than I can count and people probably wonder it more times than they like to admit.

For the record…Birdie (Pictured) is the furthest thing from it 😂
She just happens to be in worn-out zombie 🧟 half-sleep status after doing off-leash work at the dog park.

She crushed it btw 🙃

Anywho…Stupid dogs, right?

Are they a thing?

In short…No.

Like us there are things and roles that certain dogs are best suited for.

Things they’ll excel in and others where they may struggle.

The same way you sucked at Math 🧮 in school, but aced Science or History.

Did that make you stupid? Nah.

Just meant gravitated somewhere that fit 🧩

The things we ask Service Dogs to do are completely opposite of what we’d expect a high level working dog to do and vice versa.

You’re not going to ask a Mechanic to make you a five ⭐️ meal.

Ultimately, wherever your dog lands will only be encouraged or burnt down by you.

If Little Johnny likes Soccer ⚽️ and you force him to the Grid Iron 🏈 it’s got high probability for a tumultuous relationship.

Before you judge your dog be ready to take a long look in the mirror 🪞 and be honest about your own abilities.

Stupid dogs? No.

It only feels like we’re getting more stupid to dogs because of 💩 info and instant expectations 🧞‍♂️

Too Easy.
