Challenges can bring out fears in dogs but they also offer opportunities for growth and confidence building. Instead of avoiding difficult situations, practice learning how to guide your dog through them.

This will help create better leadership skills within yourself and deeper trust between you and your dog.

Dog training is much more than simply “sit” or a loose leash walk. It’s so important for so many deeper reasons than that.

Learn how dog training can improve your dog's physical and mental wellbeing, and improve the bond between you and your pup.

Let’s reflect… You may have chosen goals for your dog as we moved into the new year. How are you putting them into practice?

Puppy socialization! It’s more than play dates. It’s showing your puppy the world and how they can appropriately interact with it, making sure their experiences have positive outcomes and they learn to be neutral to common things in their environment.
Think about your daily routine, environment, lifestyle, and activities. Make a list of any objects, experiences, sounds, brings, etc. that your puppy will need to be ok with. Then bring treats and spend time around all of that. Gauge your puppy’s reaction and make super positive experiences out of your time out with them.
And enjoy eachother!!

Our puppy, Potato, took another trip to Marietta Square to experience traffic noise, passing people and dogs, squirrels, settling at a park bench, and the fountain!
Our goal is neutrality with a focus on handler engagement and he’s doing awesome!

This little cutie had his first lesson with trainer Brandi today!! Finn’s owner is learning to teach him all the basics through our 6-session Private Lesson Program. Today, he started working on Place and expanding his skill to stay seated longer.
He’s super motivated and his owner is dedicated so I think they’re going to go far! He’ll be a proper little gentleman in no time ❤️

Do y’all have any that you would add to this list?

In my experience as a trainer, I would like to emphasize #8 and #12. I absolutely love those breeds as family dogs💛🐾💙 I actually just suggested #12 to a family looking for breed suggestions.

When bringing a dog into a home with children, there are many things to consider. Check out these breeds as options for your next family pet.
