First full session with ivy , without her muzzle !
These results aren’t day and night, and that’s okay. Consistency goes a long way and Ivy + her mom are living proof of that. So proud of their success ❤️

Ivy
Ivy and her mom took on County Max without me this week ! 💪🏻 Ivy is killin it with her long down-stay in distractive environments.🐕🦺
As much as I love working with my clients , it’s even better seeing them thrive on their own, reaching their goals and being a confident handler for their dog. Truly beautiful and heartwarming to see the puzzle pieces all come together 🧩
Tug with Cash !
Teaching CASH a fair game of tug ! 💰🐾
We’ve gotta work on his drop it command while doing this exercise but showing him what it’s all about and getting him to engage with the toy and handler was the first step.
🎾This is a great engagement and relationship building exercise. Keep a tug toy available that you only use while interacting with your dog (meaning the toy is not for free time use). This teaches your dog the specific toy is only fun when their handler is on the other end of it. You can practice basic obedience in between to make training fun and motivating for your dog. Teaching ‘out’ or ‘drop it’ in the middle of playing tug is a great way to build impulse control and to develop a good on and off switch with your dog!
And don’t forget to give them easy wins so they enjoy the game and come back for more !🐾
Ivy and her mom absolutely crushing it in new environments ! New places can be a little triggering for Ivy, so we really made sure to keep tension off of the leash, create space from triggers, and work through them in the best way we can using all the tools in our belt. So proud of this girl and can’t wait for our next session !🐕🦺❤️
Bath Time 🛁 working on making baths a more positive experience 🐾
Who remembers this sweet girl?🐾It’s been a minute since I’ve seen Willow and her family so we went through a quick refresher for everyone and got started on our 2nd lesson! Since I last saw her, the family have taken it upon themselves to teach her some well needed skills that are going to help us in the long run of our training program ! 💖 we will continue to work on the basics to set this little nugget up for the utmost success!😍
