Board and train update from @boooshank !!! Sutter heading into the end of her B&T program, like Lee mentions in his caption, sometimes pups take a bit longer, and that’s not a problem for us. It’s all about them learning at their best rate and enjoying the process. Great job guys!!!
“Ms. Sutter coming to the end of her stay with me. She's so much more motivated to engage now. Meaning the duration her folks wanted from her at least has value and understanding. Just because we say our board and train is 21 days, doesn't mean they go home then. She's rolling into her 6th week with me and doing great. I was on her learning curve more than mine.“

Board and train update from @primalcanine_brandon !!! Lucy making big strides in all aspects of her general behavior. Learning the proper way to communicate and lessening her reactivity gradually. Great job guys!!!
“Update on Lucy: Lucy has been working on learning how to walk nicely in the heel position, building engagement, going through her positions while in the heel and holding those positions once asked of. This is all pretty huge for her considering she did this with a little bit of distractions going on with people and dogs walking by. She is very dog and human reactive.”

Board and train update from @primalcanine.henry !!! Frankie and Masis killing it, both dogs had some dog reactivity (Masis had some pretty severe reactivity). These guys are both doing great, awesome job guys!!!
“Board and train updates for Frankie and Masis! Both dogs out working some environmentals and neutrality today. Both dogs did great, my wife @shannonrayriley helped out and handled Masis while I got to work with Frankie. Both dogs are achieving the goals their owners have set out for them, dog neutrality being a very important one.”

Board and train update from @primalcanine.matt !!! Javi and Matt getting their reps in, Javier making great progress and figuring out how to maneuver his potato shaped body haha. Really liking what I’ve seen from this little pup can’t wait to see how he is towards the end of his program. Great job guys!!!
“Handsome Javier doing some work. It’s not uncommon for these compact guys to have issues rolling their hips into a seated position without flopping over to one side. To get him to sit in front of me was quite the task, but now he’s doing it like a pro with every recall. He’s not quite done with his work here but he’s definitely on the right track. “
#primalcanine #boardandtrain #dogtraining #est2013
Board and train update from @boooshank !!! Lee and Chesty working on their sit mechanics. Taking the time and making sure they’re building the exact type of sit they want. Great job guys!!!
“Working Mr. Chesty's tuck sit. Couple sessions in.
Reinforcing the sit more than the stand to get him offering the right behavior on the board. It's fun to go in depth with positions and their changes. I'll use a rear foot target to get a better stand when I need to. Getting the donkey moving and luring like this wasn't the easiest. His mustache definitely doesn't help the reward delivery. “

Board and train update from @pcdecoy_styles !!! Korey and his wife @andreaa_styles5 have done an amazing job with Rocky, staying patient and letting big Rocky know they’re there for him. Really excited to see his final transformation but we’re definitely not fast tracking it. It due time Rocky!! Great job guys!!!
“Some dogs just need the comfort in knowing that you aren’t going to abandon them like they are use to.
Rocky needed a safe, controlled and consistent home to learn that he doesn’t have to be on high alert at all times.
Rocky came to us as a feral dog not understanding what it was like to live among humans. His biggest fear is any pressure around his neck - so putting a collar/leash on him has been the main focus for our training.
Some people reach out asking if Rocky is still around. Rocky is indeed still available for adoption! My wife has started helping with Rocky’s sessions for the simple fact that he seems to progress faster with her. He still hasn’t fully opened up to me, but we are making progress which is all I can ask for.“

Board and train update from @primalcanine.henry !!! Frankie killing his B&T program, really looking forward to seeing this pup thrive after the initial part of his program is done and he’s on to his transition lessons. Great job guys!!!
“Frankie is thriving during his board and train. This dog loves to engage and loves to work. Working on tightening up his obedience and making sure we can increase duration in is commands. Really fun and happy dog right here.”
#primalcanine #boardandtrain #dogtraining #est2013
Board and train update from @primalcanine.henry !!! Kepler making huge strides with his reactivity already! Really looking forward to seeing this pup progress greatly in his program. Great job guys!!!
“Board and train update for Kepler! Kepler is a young Border Collie, Aussie, Heeler cross and is full of energy and will to work. He is here to work on his dog reactivity, which can be serious. Huge strides for this guy and it’s still very early in his program. Looking forward to having some fun with this pup.”
#primalcanine #boardandtrain #dogtraining #est2013
Board and train update from @boooshank !!! Sutter gaining tons of confidence during her program. Killing her long downs in a busy environment. Looking forward to seeing her progress as she continues to smash forward. Great job guys!!!
“One of Sutter’s folk’s goals is to understand duration, and to not feel insecure about it. So that's what we work.
We are still teaching her that she can be calm in most environments without quarm, but also proof it at home when she's not so distracted. I'm super excited to get her back home soon-ish to continue on her training journey. She's an absolute sweetie.“
#primalcanine #boardandtrain #dogtraining #est2013
Board and train update from @primalcanine.henry!!! Mr. Dash is back at it stealing the show again haha. I have a feeling little man is going to kill his program!! Haha, great work guys!!!
“Board and train Dash! Dash just started his program and is already fitting right in. Just working on some luring and working for meals, seeing if he can prance those little feet haha. He should be a fun one.”
#primalcanine #boardandtrain #dogtraining #est2013
Board and train update from @boooshank !!! Big George getting his reps in, learning to respond with more emphasis, as well as working for his meals. Looking forward to seeing this big pup towards the end of his program. Great job guys!!!
“Running around my driveway with a bear. Simply teaching George that his name is a fun thing and getting his big butt moving. It's not just a word he hears with emotion when he's barking for hours on end at home. 🤭
George will be on a journey to fitness during his stay as well to shed some weight and increase the stamina he has for our working sessions. Right now he has about 5 minutes of stamina, which will only get better during his stay for him to be the lean working breed he has the potential to be.
Onwards and upwards bungle buddy.”
#primalcanine #boardandtrain #dogtraining #est2013
Board and train update from @boooshank !!! Sutter is one of those dogs that you must take a sensitive approach with. Like in this video where Lee quickly notices the leash snag and immediately brings her through it. Great job guys!!!
“Me and Sutter starting to get some progress. It's been slow going for sure. I've had her about 10 days now. I really haven't asked for anything at all in the way of behaviors. Just bringing positive associations to the environment she's in.
I'm not one to rush dogs, if I can't reinforce them I really don't ask for much. If Sutter would have felt that leash snag early on into our relationship it could quite easily of been a bad experience for her. Who knows what she could of associated it with. Hopefully she forgot it quickly with me upping her reward rate and releasing her out. Mistakes happen.“
#primalcanine #boardandtrain #dogtraining #est2013
Board and train update from @primalcanine.matt !!! Check out Blaze and Matt putting in their reps! Great job guys!!
“Blaze is headed home Friday! He’s all of 16 weeks old now and has the fanciest prance of all the golden doodles I know. I’m gonna miss his cute face but this is not the end. He goes home to be with his family and they’re gonna keep him on the track that we set him on and when he’s ready he’ll be back to help him solidify that work and add more advanced skills.”
#primalcanine #boardandtrain #dogtraining #est2013
Double whammy today! Haha Client update and a R&T update from @primalcanine.henry !!!
“Raise and train Drax helping me out during a private lesson with Dobie the Doberman. Work some obedience and neutrality out in a stimulating environment. Both dogs are doing great. Dobie is about 8 months old and doing great during his program. He has dedicated owners that put in the work!”
#primalcanine #raiseandtrain #dogtraining #est2013
Raise and train update from @boooshank !!! Sometimes you have to just have some fun in your “training sessions” and that’s just what Lee and Chesty are doing. Chesty has been one interesting R&T to say the least! As we do with all of our clients, Lee works with him at his own pace and makes the best out of every session. Looking forward to seeing this giant when he’s fully mature. Great job guys!!!
“Just playing with Chesty. No conflict, no real pressure or expectations. Just getting him invested into the interaction with play and finding what he actually finds reinforcing.“
#primalcanine #raiseandtrain #boardandtrain #dogtraining #est2013
Board and train update from @primalcanine.matt !!! Puppy Blaze getting his reps in. This guy has been hanging around the big boys at the shop lately and I can definitely vouch for his hilarious puppy energy haha, looking forward to seeing all progress this little chicken nugget makes during his program. Great job guys!!!
“Blaze is a 14 week old golden doodle puppy out here doing big things. He’s a pretty smart guy and catches on quickly. He’s no Malinois, but he can prance and do some fun obedience tricks too! Watch my stories for updates and my future stories when he comes back to complete his stay!”
