On Tuesday morning, I was excited to help a fellow veteran, an active-duty US Navy sailor who is an administrative specialist (yeoman), and her spouse train their 1-year-old Chihuahua named Dobbie. Dobbie was an excessive barker both indoors and outdoors and did not know how to walk properly on a leash or sit or stay in place or at a distance. Now Dobbie is walking properly on the leash, as shown in the photos below, sitting and staying in place as well as at a distance with distractions. His barking has been addressed and curtailed, and he no longer barks unless it is allowed. My owners have the tools and knowledge to maintain and control Dobbie for years to come, and they also know that I am available if there are any questions or concerns. I am only a phone call away; all training was accomplished without using any food or treats for motivation.

On Tuesday afternoon I was thrilled to help a wonderful couple who relocated from Pennsylvania for an easier lifestyle here on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. They have a 2.5 yr old Maltipoo named Layla, who was a real hot mess due to her excessive barking, not being able to walk properly on the leash, jumping when it was inappropriate, and not returning when called. Now my owners have the knowledge and tools to control this amazing pup. Layla is walking properly on the leash, as shown in the photos below, sitting and staying at a distance, returning when called properly, and no longer jumping on anyone or anything unless it's approved, and most importantly, her barking has been addressed and curtailed for a quieter household. All training was completed without using food or treats for motivation.

This Saturday afternoon I was delighted to assist another wonderful couple who have been dating for the last 12 months, and the girlfriend owns two dogs: a 4-year-old XL Bully named Milan and a 3-year-old Pitbull named Dior. The problem was the Pitbull tended to be snappy to the boyfriend, which caused some uneasiness in the house, especially in close proximity with his girlfriend. Additionally, the dogs were unruly in the house, jumping on the furniture without permission and struggling to settle down. Walking the dogs together was frustrating because they only knew how to sit and stay in place for short periods of time. Now the boyfriend has the necessary tools and knowledge to control both dogs, who are now walking nicely on the leash, sitting and staying in place at a distance, no longer jumping on the furniture unless permitted, and remaining calm inside the house. All training was accomplished without using food or treats to motivate the dogs.

Last Saturday afternoon I was delighted to assist a wonderful family with their newest addition, a 5 mos old, giant schnauzer named Daisy. Daisy, being a typical puppy, was jumping on family and furniture and harassing the older dog in the home. She didn't know how to walk properly on the leash without pulling and wouldn't sit or stay in place or at a distance. Unfortunately, the lesson was cut short because of inclement weather that was coming in, so we finished the lesson this Saturday along with helping gain control of an 8-year-old chihuahua named Larry, who had no manners whatsoever, barked excessively, and did not know how to sit in place or stay at a distance, and walking was out of the question. Now both dogs shown in photos below are walking properly on the leash, sitting and staying in place, and returning when called. Larry's barking has now been curtailed, and he only barks when it's warranted. Daisy is no longer jumping on anyone or anything, and the family has control over both dogs.

On Sunday afternoon, I was delighted to help another terrific couple who are successful business owners in their community train their nine-month-old bernadoodle named Waco, named after the wife's favorite town in Texas. Waco was still struggling to learn how to walk without pulling or not jumping unless permitted and to return when called, even after being sent to another trainer for a week. Now Waco is walking smartly on the leash with both his mom and dad, as shown in the photos below, and is sitting and staying in place at a distance, no longer jumping unless it's allowed, and returning properly when called. All training was accomplished without using food or treats for motivation, and now my owners have the tools necessary to control this great-looking fella for years to come.

On Sunday morning, despite the bad weather (heavy rain we had come through in the morning), I assisted a wonderful couple who drove an hour from Hattiesburg, Mississippi, to the Gulf Coast for me to train their newest addition, a 5-month-old Rottweiler named Roxy, who is harassing their young child, age 4, by jumping and nipping. Even though she was good while walking, which needs some polishing, she was also struggling with how to sit and stay in place and at a distance. Now my happy couple, who hail from the great state of New York, have the tools and knowledge to control this amazing young dog. Roxy is walking smartly on the leash, as shown in the photos below, sitting and staying in place and returning quickly when called, no longer jumping unless it's permitted, and her nipping has been addressed and curtailed for a much happier home, especially with the young children. All training was accomplished without using any food or treats for motivation.

On Saturday morning, I was proud to assist a fellow veteran of the United States Marine Corps who served for 8 years of active duty until an unfortunate ground safety accident resulted in the loss of her left foot. However, being a Marine did not stop her from moving on; she recently rescued a 7-month-old Belgian Malinois named Battle from Houston, Texas, which had run away from its previous owners. When the dog was recovered, the owners did not want it back, so now the dog is with her new mom to eventually be her service dog. Battle has several issues that need to be addressed, such as jumping on the furniture, as well as his new mom. He did not know how to walk properly on the leash, sit, or stay in place or at a distance and was hesitant to load into her Jeep. By using only physical and verbal praise, Battle is now walking smoothly on the leash, as shown in the photos below. He is sitting and staying in place, no longer jumping on the furniture or his mom unless permitted, and he is learning how to load properly into her Jeep. My owner has the tools and necessary knowledge to control this amazing pup, which will be a great companion in years to come.

On Thursday afternoon, I was delighted to assist a former customer who adopted a German Shepherd named Walter from a local animal shelter in May when he was 5 months old; at that time, he was still experiencing shelter shock upon meeting his new mom and was not ready for training. Fast forward 4 months later: Walter is much calmer than he was and not as fearful; however, his walking was still difficult for my owner, who works in the food industry as a local manager of a restaurant, and she was still struggling with him to obey while on the leash. Walter also did not know how to sit or stay in place when told. Now, as shown in the photographs below, Walter is walking very smartly with his new mom, is sitting and staying in place and at a distance, and is a joy to be around. All training was accomplished without using food or treats, and my owner has this necessary knowledge and tools to control this great-looking companion for years to come.

On Tuesday afternoon I was delighted to assist a stand-up guy in training his latest addition that he rescued from the local animal shelter. Let's meet Tippy, a 6-month-old Pitbull who was enamored with her new dad to the point of constantly jumping on him and furniture and did not know how to walk on the leash properly without pulling, sit in place, or stay at a distance. She also struggled to settle down in the home, which made it difficult for her new dad to relax and watch television. Now my owner has the knowledge and tools necessary to control this sweet girl. Tippy is walking nicely on the leash without pulling, as shown in the photos below; she's no longer jumping on my owner or his furniture unless permitted and is sitting and staying in place and at a distance, plus being calm in the house. All training was completed without the use of food or treats to motivate the dog.

On Monday afternoon I was happy to assist another terrific family where my owner works in sales and has a 2-year-old Blue Heeler named Ace who was showing aggressive behavior by nipping friends or contract workers upon entering the home if you weren't paying attention. He was hard to difficult to walk on a leash because he pulled and didn't know how to sit or stay in place or at a distance. Now my owner has the knowledge and tools to control the sharp-looking boy. Ace's aggressive behavior has been identified and curtailed; he's walking properly, as shown in the photos below, sitting and staying in place and at a long distance, and returning when called. All training was accomplished without using food or treats for motivation.
