It’s time to level up!
I know stepping outside your comfort zone can feel overwhelming—messy, even. But you’ve got this.
This is exactly why we build strong foundations with our dogs—so when things get challenging, you have solid habits to fall back on.

7 days in 🎉
The basics are worked on and each dog is showing me they are ready to start branching out!
How exactly are they showing me this?
➡️ They are crushing the behaviors in low distraction environments.
➡️ They are responding really well to my verbal cues.
➡️ I can see them thinking through behaviors and putting in effort.
Once I see this, I know it’s time to level up.
Nothing new, just adding more distractions and making each task a little harder.

Week 2!
This is where we take that amazing foundation that has been started and build on it!
If you think about your training like building a house, it would go a little like this.
Stage 1- Build the foundation and frame the house.
Stage 2- electric, drywall, flooring and roof.
Stage 3- Final touches. Painting, trim, furniture and decoration.
Just like a house, you have to keep everything maintained or it goes to sh*t and you have to fix it.
If you want these stages laid out for you in a step-by-step plan, comment “Link” and I’ll send you over a breakdown of how I do it.
Wooo!🎉🎉
You made it through Week 1!
This first week was all about resetting your rules, relationship, and communication with your dog. But here’s the thing—these new rules aren’t temporary. They’re the foundation for everything moving forward!
A solid foundation makes tackling the harder stuff—like reactivity—so much easier. And if you or your dog need more time in this reset phase, that’s totally okay. Some dogs take longer to adjust, and that’s normal!

Something everyone gets caught up in…
You’re working so hard to get your dog to a certain point that you overlook the small wins—the little moments of progress that actually matter.
Think about it: You’re asking your dog to change habits they’ve had for months or even years—overnight. That’s a big ask.
Real progress takes time.
That’s why, in Chaos to Calm, I always remind my students to pause and appreciate those small wins.
Day four. They’re nowhere near perfect, but I can see progress—and that’s what matters most.

Something I teach that a lot of trainers don’t, is how to work with your dog brain and not against it.
When you know how to do that you don’t have to overtrain and try to fix every little behavior.
You find behaviors that help you treat the root cause of the problems .
Build those behaviors up .
Then watch all of the other problematic behaviors that were symptoms of the problems go away on their own.
It’s as simple as deciding you and your dog deserve better.

Welcome to day 2!
The first week is always the busiest week.
There are so many old behaviors that have to get worked on and so many new ones to teach.
During reset week, I prioritize stopping the old behaviors and replacing them with new and improved ones.
I don’t do a session for ever.single.thing. That would be impossible.
Instead, I just address behaviors and new habits as we move through the day together.
That’s the best way to start working with your dog to see some real change!
