Can you place your dog into a down position and not have to kneed the air with hand signals or shakily command “stayyyyyy, fluffy stayyyyyy, noooooo, stayyyyyyyyyy”? Well, all of my board and train programs include an implied stay for both sit and down. I’m lazy and of a simple enough mind to believe that our pups can hold a position until we release them. #down #downstay #dogtraining #boardandtrain #dogobedience #therapydog #doodle #bernedoodle
Engagement for me is the #1 thing a dog can give you that requires them to not care about the outside world. I love having to incorporate food as a distraction to be able to break away from my dogs to even be able to practice a recall! #dogtraining #dogobedience #therapydog #boardandtrain #phoenix #doodle #bernedoodle

What is the 3-3-3 rule?
Once you’ve found your new bestie, it’s important to prepare for their arrival by following the 3-3-3 rule. The 3-3-3 rule is a set of guidelines for the first three days, three weeks, and three months after adopting a new dog. The goal of the 3-3-3 rule is to help the dog adjust to their new environment and build a strong foundation for a long and happy life with their new family.
Why is the 3-3-3 rule important?
The 3-3-3 rule is important because it emphasizes the need for patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement when bringing home a newly adopted dog. Dogs are creatures of habit and routine, and they need time to adjust to new environments and build trust with their new family.
The First 3 Days
During the first three days, it’s important to give the dog plenty of space and time to acclimate to their new environment. They may exhibit behaviors such as fear, nervousness, or confusion as they adjust to new sights, smells, and sounds. Some dogs may be hesitant to eat, drink, or play during this time. It’s important to give them plenty of space and time to acclimate to their new environment. Keep them in a quiet, comfortable room with their bed, food, water, and toys. Limit their exposure to other pets, family members, and visitors so they don’t get overwhelmed. This time is called decompression.
During this time, take your new dog outside for potty breaks on a leash, but don’t overwhelm them with long walks or trips to the park. This is a time for them to explore and get comfortable in their new surroundings at home.
