Off leash freedoms
That means recall
Recall is one of the best things you can teach your dog!
Follow through is a must, and this is a perfect video to show you guys.
If you watch her body language
The snow and her tiny human are "higher value" then training
Mine and her follow through matched.
No rapid firing of commands
Staying calm and clear with communication is key.
And the release command!!
She wasn't getting into anything she wasn't supposed to, she wasn't too far away, she was enjoying herself.
But reminding her to check in is important.
What's more high value then yourself to your dog?
(Theres no wrong answers. Just a reminder of what you could be working on)
The Bully Barn is back at it! What better way to kick it off then with a few hunting hounds turning em out together?!
Sad to say this but I'm taking a step back from The Bully Barn as I approach the arrival of my human baby.
Stay tuned though as new renovations are being done in this time! Going to miss my clients for the time I am away! So feel free to still send me pictures, videos, progress and questions you may have.
I'm so grateful to each and everyone of you! It's not good bye it's see ya later!
Tons of updates to look forward to and I will even host an open house when I'm back full force!
Thank you and your dogs for the understanding🐾💚
Archie here playing and helping me clean up the dog yard today.
Love this massive baby man!
Camp Bully Barn! Theos favorite spot on the property 🐾
Gucci and Twinkle
Sometimes I get clients that really make me think out of the box!
Building healthy confidence
Building healthy relationships
Building YOUR pack
That’s what I do.
I’m not a “normal” trainer.
I don’t have a one size fits all program
And sometimes when I don’t have the best compatibility dog wise…
…I have cats that have all been raised with dogs
(Even my cats are crate trained, and on potty break schedules)
When things get tough..
..get patient!
When your traditional way of approaching a situation isn’t working..
..sometimes you have to get weird!
Thanks Gucci for helping Twinkle continue her growth!

Intro to slip lead. Paulie🐾
Paulies first time on a slip lead!
Definitely needs some fine tuning, but finding “less is more” with this dude is going to come in clutch.
Halfway through the walk (which I naturally didn’t video.) Paulie and his dad were amazed they had an enjoyable time without pulling.
They learned redirection, soft calm face before proceeding, no barking or lunging at distractions on the walk.
Long way to go but that’s why I love having a starter video! Let’s cheer them on and watch their education, relationship and confidence grow!
Off leash social
King (neutered):green collar, staying close, happy trot
Watson (intact): white pup, on a healthy scent, learning how to mind his business and not force play
They had a great time on their off leash social today!
When they interacted they were appropriate. When they disengaged they did it gracefully.
Followed up by on leash structured walk to wind them down and reel them in! Just two male pitties coexisting like champs.
