Gracie, the Labradoodle, attended our Jumpers Anonymous workshop. She completed our board and train program in March. She's such a friendly and excitable dog. She needed a refresher on how to curb her attention seeking jumping and how to manage her jumping when guests come over. It was great to see her and she has maintained all of her obedience cues.

Theo, the Goldendoodle puppy, worked so hard on his field trip to DICK'S Sporting Goods. It was quite the challenge for him to ignore people and walk politely on his leash. He did a great job and was very responsive to his obedience cues. Great job, Theo!

Beau, the 2 year old Golden Retriever, is currently enrolled in private training lessons with Vikki. He's in training to work on curbing his attention seeking jumping, stop pulling on the leash, and to learn how to come when called. He did fantastic at his first lesson and took a nice long nap afterwards. Great job, Beau!

Millie, the 4 year old German Shepherd, is currently enrolled in private training lessons with Vikki for behavior modification training. She is a fully task trained service dog and is trained to provide various tasks to help her owner mitigate the effects of POTS.
She is currently pulled from working with her owner in public because she began to develop fear based reactivity towards strangers approaching them in public. We are currently working with her in public environments utilizing systematic desensitization and counter-conditioning. She is making tremendous progress in training and it is our hope that she we will soon be able to accommodate her owner again in public environments.
It may be tempting to want to approach service dogs and their owners, but please ignore them. Many owners, such as Millie's, are often just trying to go about their day without constant interruptions and questions.
Sutton, the Pomeranian puppy, is having so much fun learning her basic obedience cues! She is also learning how to walk politely on a leash. Great Job, Sutton!
