Happy Graduation, Maddie! ๐ ๐
Maddie is on her way back home now after finishing up a three-week program with us. This bright, young, Doodle was here to work on things like leash manners (no more barking and lunging at dogs on walks!) and some household basics such as not jumping on or mouthing guests. She has come such a long way and her family is committed to maintaining her progress!

What better way to celebrate a birthday than to pull with some of your favorite furry friends?
Weight pull can be a โseriousโ sport, but itโs always important to take some time to be a little silly and just enjoy your dog!
Uecker, Moose, and Cain are just here for a quick boarding stay, but we canโt pass up the opportunity to practice some off leash pack walking!
Their family is super dedicated to maintaining their dogsโ training, and because of it, the dogs get to enjoy a life full of freedom ๐ฅฐ

Sammy is a reactive, easily over stimulated, little guy that is here to get a much better handle on his reactivity and to help him feel more comfortable and confident out in the world.
Often, when we get dogs in like Sammy, we spend the first day or two of their programs taking long line decompression walks to allow them to better settle into our routine and set them up for success in their program!

Check out Maia ๐ฟ๐ผ๐ฐ๐ธ๐ถ๐ป๐ด a little โplace anywhereโ challenge back at home. Before training, mom was terrified to drop the leash outside of the house!
We love seeing our alumni dogs blossoming back with their families after training - itโs why we do what we do!

This little jumping bean just started her Perfect Puppy program with us. Luna is a Golden Retriever x Irish Setter mix and we cannot wait to help her grow up great with her family ๐
The Perfect Puppy program is a package that combines Day Training, Private Lessons, and ends with an Off-Leash Board & Train - all at a discount so that we can help you take your puppy from the fun (and sometimes challenging) baby-dog phase through adolescence and early adulthood!

Check out little Lucy holding a down stay in the farm store! Learning to be brave without being attached to her handler, how to be calm in the presence of people and dogs, and how to settle on her own were big focuses during her stay with us. Getting Lucy out of her comfort zone at home and into her board and train program was a huge step forward for her and allowed us to really focus on helping her grow. We canโt wait for her family to see how far she has come!

โI donโt have regular access to a track, so we could never be competitiveโ This is one of the most common misconceptions I hear from people looking to get into weight pull competitively. Although track work is helpful, Iโm going to let you in on a little secret. The โจ magicโจ in building a good dog is in drag work and sled work. (Here, my old girl, Piper, is putting in a few easy reps to stay in senior shape!)
What does a typical training session look like? Not much, honestly. Ruby & Audrey are both just a few days into their programs and are learning basic leash drills as well as place, sit, and down. Itโs not very exciting to watch, but itโs hard work for these pups! Bubbles & Bella are tethered to provide a level of distraction, but also so that they can practice being OK with not being the center of the party! ๐๐ฒ๐๐๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐๐ผ๐ด๐ ๐ฆ๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฒ.
Meet Uecker!
This wiggly guy is here for a Board & Train program for on and off leash obedience, and to also help him better manage his BIG, excited feelings when he sees anything that could signal the start of a party out in public! ๐ ๐ฅณ

Itโs #MudSeason, which means being able to vacuum your house in peace is an important life skill for your dogs! Teaching your dog that their cot is a safe space can go a long way in helping you to knock out those muddy household chores! Bubbles would really like to chase the vacuum, but sheโs holding the place command like a pro! (PS, Bubbles is still adoptable through the Medina County SPCA!) Bแดแดแดแดส Dแดษขs Sแดแดสแด Hแดสแด.
Nothing beats a good recall, and Hazel is happy to demonstrate!

Freya is very patient with the puppies that come through!
She needs a couch to call her own, though. Someone snatch this little girl up, quick!
Freya is adoptable through Mannered Mutts Rescue and her adoption includes follow up support from us to keep her successful in her new home ๐ฅฐ Freya knows basic commands and walks nicely on leash. She is roughly 1.5 years old, is people and dog friendly, and would do best in a home without cats or other small animals (she can ignore chickens, though!).
To get great off leash obedience, we have to start with great on leash obedience. It can be tempting to skip the foundation steps, but your dog will thank you for taking the time to establish clarity and build a strong reinforcement history before you take off the lead.
Remyโs family lives on acreage, so a reliable off leash recall is really important to them. This is the first step in getting him there!
