Meet Cooper!

Cooper is a 4 year old Golden Retriever who is in our Behavior Modification Program.

Don’t let this dapper fellow fool you; Cooper has very intense leash reactivity to other dogs, trucks, skateboards, motorcycles, and sometimes humans. Additionally, Cooper redirects his aggression on his owner’s out of frustration, which has let to multiple bites.

With Cooper, we are building confidence, adding more structure to his daily life, and working through his aggression with redirection, counter conditioning, and not avoiding triggers.

As a safety precaution, Cooper is muzzled in public to ensure his owners can work through problems appropriately and without risk of being bitten. Dogs who redirect should be muzzled to eliminate fear from the owners so they can work through the problems at hand.

Cooper has been allowed to make a lot of his own decisions for years and now we are playing catch up in adding rules, boundaries, and structure to his life. Thankfully, his owners are putting in the work and we are seeing a lot of progress already.

Meet Sadie!

Sadie is a young dog who was rescued off the street of the east side of Indianapolis by a Good Samaritan in poor condition a few months back. This individual got Sadie vaccinated, spayed, and healthy! Sadie was then adopted by one of her coworkers who were looking to add a new dog to their home after losing their previous dogs last year to old age.

Sadie’s owners reached out to me to assist in her training as it’s been a long time since they have had a young dog in their home and wanted to ensure they were setting her up for success!

We are putting Sadie through the basics and getting her crate trained. The ultimate goal for Sadie is to be a good house dog.

Introducing…..Billie Bloom!

Billie Bloom is the newest member of my personal dog pack and represents the next generation. Billie will be in training to be my personal service dog but also a demo dog for It’s a Breeze Dog Training and Pet Care. Billie is a 5 month old Belgian Malinois rescued from MAD.

Like Willow, Billie will be used to help socialize and train clients while also being a representative of what a well balanced dog looks like.

Through Billie, we will work through all things puppy including crate training, leash manners, basic obedience, and socialization in public.

So stay tuned for Billie videos and seeing her out in the real world!

Meet Joey!

Joey is new to our midday Drop-In Program! Joey is a recently adopted 3ish year old mixed breed dog whose owner had to return to the office full time and asked us for assistance in helping Joey adjust to the change in routine.

Midday visits are typically 30 minutes in length and are only available in select areas. Midday visits include walks if the weather allows.

Meet Kylee!

Kylee is a three year old miniature poodle who was rescue by her owners in fall of 2024 and is new to our training program. Kylee, who is about 3 years old, was pulled from a puppy mill situation by a rescue in Northern Indiana in 2024. The last two pictures show her first groom and the condition she was found in.

Dogs like Kylee are special to me because mainly what we are trying to teach her is how to be a dog. Potty training has been a big focus. Walking on a leash and tolerating a collar. Basic house manners. All things most dogs know how to do at her age are very familiar with. For Kylee, everything has been a bit scary.

In addition, Kylee has been extremely undersocialized with people. She bonded strongly to her new mom to the point of resource guarding her and has struggled to connect with any other humans. Thankfully, her new family has been taking things slow with her and is allowing her to open up on her own with some periodic pushing to get her to understand there is nothing to be afraid of.

In just a few sessions of working with Kylee she has grown much more confident, has started to play with toys and zoom around the house, and is even letting her new Dad walk her on a leash!

Time and patience are the key ingredients here and she landed in the perfect home to allow her to blossom fully. I can’t wait to see where she is in a few more months!

03/06/2025

Any dog adopted from Helping Paws comes with a free training session from us and continual support during their initial weeks in home. This is for local adopters only.

If you or anyone you know is looking to add a dog to your family please let us know! I know all of these dogs well.

03/05/2025

Starting 3/10/2025 there is going to be some changes to services and hours.

I have had some recent health issues, which has had me hospitalized twice in three weeks so I’m forced to make some changes to ensure I can better manage my on going health concerns.

-Drop In Visits and Dog Walks will be Monday - Friday from 8a to 6p for dogs. I am eliminating vacation/out of town care for dogs for the time being. I will still be doing vacation care/out of town care for cats as those visits can be done during the above listed hours and I will do those on the weekends due to the simpler nature of them.

-If you are already booked with me for vacation care for your dog past the above date I plan to hold true to my agreement. I just will not be booking any new services for the time being.

-Training sessions and consultations will be moved to strictly Wednesday through Saturday with Tuesdays being a rollover day if I have to cancel a session. During week the last session will start no later than 6:30pm and on Saturdays the last session will start on 3pm.

-I plan to post the 2025 Socialization Walk Schedule soon which includes Saturdays and Sundays at different locations. Aside from these walks, Sunday’s will be a rest day.

Again, this could all change in the future, but for now this is what I feel is the best decision. Thank you everyone for their flexibility lately.

Meet our March Adoptable Dog of the Month!

Sissy is currently up for adoption with and is a senior dog at 10 years old. Sissy arrived to Helping Paws in bad physical shape and after months of TLC is thriving! She does well with other dogs, but would do well paired with a friend who will let her be the boss. Sissy has been living with cats and is neutral to them. While Sissy doesn’t do great with smaller kids, she has been living with teenagers and does amazing! Her favorite thing to do is sleep, which she does 20 plus hours a day. She is crate trained and potty trained. Sissy needs a retirement home and a place to just chill and spend her remaining years. Don’t let her gray muzzle fool you, this girl still has plenty of personality!

I am starting this series to help Indianapolis based dogs in rescue get adopted. All “dogs of the month” get one free training session and 20% off each additional session for up 5 additional sessions. These will be designed to help acclimate them into their home and work on any quirks.

To qualify, the dog must be adopted during the month they are featured. Sissy’s adoption fee is sponsored at $0 with an approved application. She is fully vaccinated, spayed, and up-to-date on flea and heartworm prevention. An adoption trial is available to ensure she would be a good match for your home. For additional information, please contact us!

Meet Charlie!

This boy had a very rough start to life, but is now living the dream. He has some physical scars from his past life, but he might be the happiest dog I have ever met and you would never know this dog had any sort of trauma.

Charlie is new to our basic obedience program and in two short sessions has mastered sit and down, is jumping way less on people, has gone two weeks without an accident in the house, and is starting to understand the stay and come commands.

Charlie’s owners contacted me because they were struggling to just get Charlie’s attention long enough to teach him anything. While he has no bad intentions, he has a lot of energy and just needs help learning some basic rules and boundaries. Using positive reinforcement, incorporating play time, and being consistent, Charlie is on the road to being a well mannered happy boy!

02/22/2025

Meet Tensley, Boogie, and Lily!

These three girls are new to our Drop-In Program and will be under our care for the next week and a half while their owners are on vacation.

Drop-In visits are scheduled on a first come first serve basis and the price is based on the amount of time you require per visit. If you want a walk included, additional time can be purchased at a discounted rate.

We do visits for all sorts of animals! The visits typically included feeding, outside time/litter box scooping, play time, walks, medicine administration, checking the mail and for packages, and watering plants.

It’s a Breeze Dog Training and Pet Care does have a limited service area when I comes to Drop-Ins so please check with us to see if you are in our service radius!

02/20/2025

Meet Pippen!

Pippen is a young male cat who is new, along with his hamster and fish siblings, to our drop in program.

Our drop in program includes feeding, fresh water, play time, and litter box scooping (in this case). For dogs, we will provide walks if necessary and extra time can be purchased for longer walks.

As read above, we not only take care of dogs and cats! But regardless of the animals in your home we require a meet and greet prior to any new services starting.

Meet our February Adoptable Dog of the Month!

Aristotle is currently up for adoption with rescue. He is about 4 years old found living as a feral dog in Indianapolis with other dogs. Aristotle is around 55 pounds and would be considered a husky mix. He is slow to warm up to people but once he is comfortable with you he is your best friend. Aristotle is also one of the most dog friendly dogs I have ever seen and gets along with dogs of all shapes and sizes and genders.

Aristotle does have a few quirks. Due to being an outside dog for most of his life, potty training has been a slow process but with a belly wrap he is having nearly zero accidents in his foster home. Additionally, Aristotle does have an adventurous side - he can jump and climb most fences so he has to be on a long line while outside. When he does escape, he does come back when called. Though I am optimistic with some training this behavior could be curbed.

I am starting this series to help Indianapolis based dogs in rescue get adopted. All “dogs of the month” get one free training session and 20% off each additional session for up 5 additional sessions. These will be designed to help acclimate them into their home and work on any quirks.

To qualify, the dog must be adopted during the month they are featured. Aristotle’s adoption fee is $100. He is fully vaccinated, neutered, and up-to-date on flea and heartworm prevention. An adoption trial is available to ensure he would be a good match for your home. For additional information, please contact us!

2025 is here! And with that comes some exciting new updates and changes to our program and services.

1. Our website, itsabreezedogtraining.com, has undergone a complete overhaul! Our website now includes a comprehensive list of services, tools and resources recommend by us, and a new client form for interested parties to initiate services directly from the website.

2. One of the services listed on the website is brand new - Transportation Services. If you need help getting your pet to and from the vet, groomer, day care, etc. we can help! The cost is $10 per trip plus $0.50 per mile.

3. The response to our Socialization Walks in 2024 was amazing. So this year we are adding more and adding variety! Walks will either be at 4pm on a Saturday or 11am on a Sunday at different locations in the greater Indianapolis area. I plan to email out information mid February as the walks don’t start until March. In order to attend, participants must have had at minimum a training consultation or session with us in the past 18 months. If you wish to receive the schedule please send me your email via text and I will get you added to the list!

4. Work life balance is important. As such I will be on vacation from February 7 through February 16. No services will be available during this time. Additionally, some of the travel is international and I will have intermittent cell service. I will respond to your messages as soon as I can.

5. Starting this year, there will be an additional $5 fee for every Drop-In Visit or Dog Walk that occurs on a major holiday.

6. We are looking to expand our team in 2025. These will be 1099 contact positions only. We are looking mainly for individuals with reliable transportation, solid communication, and flexibility. Prior experience is a benefit but not required. This work would only be part time to start and would be for Drop-In Visits and Dog Walks. Please reach out to us if you are interested and for more details.

7. Starting in February we will be highlighting one pet a month who is in need of a home with our rescue partner . All dogs adopted via Helping Paws will come with one free training session with us.

Meet Boomer and Gunner!

Boomer (Terrier Mix) and Gunner (Lab) are new to our weekday drop in program!

These boys are used to being checked in on during the day and they recently moved into our service area after their dad started a new job and moved to a new home.

While we are currently FULL for weekday midday drop-in visits, these visits allow for your dog day to be broken up with a potty break, some play time, and a walk!

If you are interested in weekday drop-in services please contact us for pricing, to verify if you are in our service area, and to get on the wait list!

Meet Domino!

Domino is a 1 year old Catahoula Leopard Dog who is new to our training program. His pet parent came to me after having Domino for a few months because they were struggling with counter surfing, hu***ng, jumping, and just general not listening. Domino is impulsive to his core and up until being rescued by his owner had never been held accountable by a human so he still doesn’t think he has to.

Domino is an interesting case because unlike a lot of dogs who exhibit these behaviors, he gets A LOT of daily exercise and he still is a bit of a mad man.

At his core he is a sweet boy with the best of intentions but he has an extremely high need for physical and mental exercise. His mom is an experienced dog owner who is at a loss for how to deal with a dog with such demanding needs.

We got Domino started on a weighted backpack to add more intensity to his walks to help meet that need a bit more. Additionally, we are using a beep collar to provide a deterrent to curb his chronic kleptomania.

Stayed tuned for more updates to see his progress!

Oh 2024 what a year you were.

These photos are just some of there wonderful clients that have used our services over the past year.

Thank you all for entrusting me with the training and care of your pets. These last two years going out on my own has been a world wind experience, but I wouldn’t trade it for anything.

Looking forward to an even stronger and busier 2025! There will be some big announcements in the next few weeks so stay tuned!

12/25/2024

Merry Christmas from my crazy creatures to yours!

Getting 5 out of 6 in one photo is nearly impossibly especially when three cats are involved.
