Rainy (and windy) days can be tough for some dog owners 🌧️ Here are some of our favorite indoor activities to help burn your pup’s excess energy and keep them out of trouble:
🐾 Snuffle Mats and puzzle toys with their dinner. You can even hide their food around the house and have them sniff to find it!
🐾 Training of course! Whether it is at home or sessions at our climate controlled training facility, training is great mental enrichment for your pup!
🐾 Head to Lowe's Home Improvement or Bulldog Brewing Co. with your dog for a fun outing!
🐾 Play fun interactive games with your dog like Hide ‘N Seek, Puppy Ping Pong (calling your dog back and forth), home made obstacle courses, fetch, and tug.
🐾 Kongs, chews, and lick mats as extra entertainment to keep them out of trouble!

Social media has a way of glamorizing the dog training process, especially when it comes to working with reactive dogs. Though the clip below may not look like much, THIS is what working with reactive dogs should look like. It should be boring. The goal is for your dog to be in a neutral state where nobody even knows it was/is reactive 🐾
This is Rosie and Bandit’s first time parallel walking with each other, I even put bones and toys on the side to make it more challenging. They did amazing! Would have guessed that both dogs had been through training for reactivity? 🤔
Our decorations are up & we are excited for Halloween 🎃 As you start decorating for the spooky season, don’t forget to desensitize your pup to any costume you might be planning to dress them up in to ensure that they are fully comfortable! Now is also a great time to teach them essential skills like “Leave it” to ensure that they are not getting into any toxic candy or decoration🐾 #halloween #dogs #dogtraining #navarre #gulfbreezeflorida

This week has been full of a lot of amazing accomplishments and outings with clients. But I have to take a moment to rave about Nova✨
Her owners were struggling with her reactivity and wanted help in building her confidence around people and dogs. We headed to PSC for her third session and my goodness, she did amazing! 💙
Living with and loving a reactive dog can be frustrating, overwhelming, and even embarrassing at times. Your dog’s behaviors do not make you a bad owner or your pup a bad dog. Let us help you live your best life with your dog by signing up for your package of 4 private sessions today 👇🏼

For Maggie’s last private session we decided to practice her skills at Shoreline park 🤍🐾
With how fast Maggie has been growing, her owners really wanted to focus on developing some solid leash skills to make walking her safe and enjoyable. So that’s what we did! We focused on leash manners, greetings, and overall just setting her up for success in the future ✨
