Puppy recalls are my favorite activity! 🖤
Heeling session
When that double dog heel hits just right. 🌶️ 🔥
Sweet boy Arrow. 2 weeks in and he is nailing his heeling and bed stays with recall.
🤜🏼🤛🏼
🖤 Progress is measured through millions of small efforts. 🖤 Keep trying.
Transition day as we prep the home for the next round of fur babies! It’s going to be a packed few weeks with 3 private training pups and a pup-sitting coming in. Today is all about prepping for drop offs, cleaning/sanitizing the whole property to start fresh. It’s supposed to be a hot 🥵 week too so the pup pool is filled and ready for fun! 😎
It’s a busy life…but I love it.
Don’t forget to allow your dog to be just that… a dog. Nesta and a 50ft leash on the trails. #happydog 🖤
Almost 3 weeks into Ruckus’ training and he is doing so well. This sweet boy has sure come a long ways in a short amount of time. You’ll see a small clip of me classically conditioning the muzzle with him too.
🖤
The level of engagement Ruckus is offering today makes my heart soooo happy. Look at his cute face.

Ruckus is a great example of a dog who can’t currently be trusted to make his own decisions in his current mindset. With little impulse control, lack of self confidence and over excitement/frustration he most of the time will choose to explode and react.
➖➖➖➖➖
He is in need of a lifestyle overhaul to see lasting long term changes in his mindset and behavior.
Will these lifestyle changes guarantee or “cure” reactivity? Probably not, but.. maybe!
➖There is no “one approach fits all” method to dog training, train the dog in front of you (not the dog you think or want to have). What works great for one dog may cause decline in another.
When you implement healthy daily habits, set boundaries with clear expectations and reinforce the behaviors you desire..you can set your dog up for success. The worst thing you can do is to stop training, stop exposing them to triggers and stopping their energy outlets through structured exercise/play.
Discipline and consistency is absolute key to their progress and management.
➖Dog training is not linear, progress goes up and down as you continue your journey together. Bad days are bound to happen, but don’t forget where you started. 🖤
Private Day Training
First day of day training is under way. Pack walks, treadmill work, bed stays and threshold work. Everyone is doing so well, time for lunchtime nap for the pups. 🖤🖤
Sometimes life leads you to an unexpected puppy. Welcome Nesta the Belgian Malinois, she is gonna love her new working home. 🖤
Here we are utilizing the FitPaws Donut to stretch Redwick and train him on an unstable object to help him build core & limb strength, mobility, proprioception and focus. Recovery is an important aspect in a working dogs life. This is a great activity not only for sport dogs but pet dogs as well. Helps maintain strong joints and range of motion. #fitpaws #recovery #fypシ゚viralシ#dog #germanshepherd #workingdog #sportdog #adventure #workout #rest #outdoors #pnw #southernoregon #dogtrainer
