A good way to make puppy life easier is starting with a well bred puppy. @herrimanhillsdoodles is a great option when looking into great breeders.
Earlier that day he had been riding his trike when a wasp bit his hand, causing him to bail off the trike catching himself with his face instead of his wounded hand. But a birthday present from Grandma makes everything better.
THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING! ⬇️
…of a very advanced move!
We are doing this drill for the dogs to practice proper socialization skills. YOU can practice this if you have two dogs at home!
The key is to work the dogs separately first. Doing this “dog dance” one on one. After both dogs are figuring out the game, add them together.
DISCLAIMER:
You will feel awkward at first! That’s ok! Do it in your backyard or on your driveway, don’t try this out on a walk.
See if you can get the dogs to pay attention to where you are going, mix up the movements, and don’t worry too much about the leash.
Keep it short, and don’t be afraid to go back to working with just one dog if they seem frustrated with the game.
Happy Training!

Has your dog almost knocked over granny? 😬
It may seem really cute sometimes, but it is not helping their ability to stay calm. We want them to be able to enjoy our guests without making anyone uncomfortable. Correcting them for jumping up can help your dog be present when guests visit. But it starts with us.
There are a lot of ways to correct jumping. In our program we teach a lot of different ways, with different tools. But we wanted to give you something so work on this holiday season.
This is one way you can help them by using proximal pressure and consistency.

Their instinct is to pull?! 🦮
"Opposition Reflex" is a remarkable phenomenon where an animal's natural response is to resist force pushing or pulling against them.
Whether it's your puppy refusing to let go of their toy or are determined to hold their ground when you try to move them, opposition reflex is at play.
The downside is, it makes it incredibly hard to go on walks. Just because it is in their instincts doesn't mean we can't teach them to walk on a loose leash.
Next time try doing a "tight-loose" motion to the leash or moving in a crazy direction.
Not only do we teach this in our Choas to Calm Course, but we teach you how to walk off leash! Come Join our program, and calm the chaos in 8 weeks.
Happy Training!
Place is our favorite command!
Sometimes the most effective training isn’t actively moving. Sometimes it is learning to be still. 💚
What does Taylor Swift have to do with Dog Training?
Be your Vet’s favorite Dog!
Imagine this: You are at the vets office and the vet is looking at your dogs paws, tail, ears, even in their mouth and your dog is acting like it is a normal day in paradise. Your vet is in shock, and you, yes you, are the proud owner of a well handled dog. The best part? Your dog is content because they know this is a normal part of life.
Give your dog the gift of composure. All dogs will go through a vet’s office, help them understand being handled is no big deal. This is something you can teach YOUNG. Start them early.
Having a breeder that knows their stuff when it comes to raising puppies gives you a huge advantage. Green Valley Aussies have stellar dogs, that are well bred and are handled right. We were invited to work with their dogs to showcase some handling techniques. If you want to see their amazing dogs, check out their instagram!

The first step in fixing separation anxiety: 👇🏻
Separation anxiety in dogs is a common behavioral issue where a dog becomes distressed when separated from its owner. It can lead to excessive barking, destructive behavior, and other stress-related symptoms. To address separation anxiety, gradually accustom your dog to being separate!
Crate training helps relieve separation anxiety because even though it can be hard, it teaches your dog that they can be ok without you.
A good indicator your dog DOESN’T have Separation Anxiety is if you both are good when you are apart but even greater when you are together. If your dog really struggles when you are apart, we have some things to work on.
YOU WILL STILL BE NEEDED AND LOVED! But, your dog will have more resilience mentally and emotionally.
