Delilah and Lila have enjoyed hanging out together during their training stays. But oh boy was it hard to work matching dogs with matching names!

My three year old let me know that this dog is on a back tie because she bites "you have to ignore her"

Lila will have to be very careful walking with her handler, but she is a good girl and responds well to light leash pressure

These pups are so squishy 😍 can't wait for 6 and 8 week tests.

Hey all, sorry I dropped the social media ball.
I just updated the Facebook events page for pack walks through April.
I will be scheduling and updating with the next few months out as well here in the next couple days.

Two walks this month. What a success! I'm so proud of everyone who came and worked with their dog!

Dogs are individuals.
My clients will often hear me say there are hundreds different tools and techniques because there are hundreds of different dogs.
Lots of dogs respond to treats and praise, some dogs respond better to other tools, like training collars, or remote callers.

In the case of Willa, my Puplandia Dog Rescue foster, when she first came to the rescue she could not get a pat on the head or so much as a single food treat without losing her ever loving mind. The excitement was overwhelming and overpowering. She had no self-control.
My good friend Melina McNanny took her in for a board and train, and she came back better, but would still lose control of herself if the humans around her did not uphold strict boundaries.
Since coming to foster with me we have found that using the remote collar helps the humans hold those boundaries quicker and more clearly, allowing Willa to join on more family time, adventures, and engagement. She now can handle pets, cuddles and a treat as praise without jumping and losing control.

In her case, the collar has given the humans in Willa's life better clarification for their boundaries, and indirectly more freedom and inclusion for Willa.
