Family dog trainer. Turning problem beasts into your bestie Our training Philosophy:
At Beast to Bestie, we do not take a one-size fits all training approach.
(14)

We spend time getting to know the owner and the dog to create a customized approach based on the personality and drives of the dog and goals of the owner. Classes are private one-on-one sessions, where our trainer will teach you (the owner) how to communicate with your dog, teach wanted behaviors, and stop unwanted behaviors. Our goal is to not only teach a dog obedience or stop unwanted behavior,

but to build a strong, healthy relationship between owner and canine. Dogs thrive on strong leadership, structure, and routine. We will teach you how to be the leader your dog deserves, while incorporating structure and routine in your dog’s life, guaranteeing a happier life for both you and your bestie. For their safety and yours, it is vital a dog knows right from wrong, that is why we use a balanced training approach. This means during the learning phase of teaching obedience commands and house rules, we use reward-based reinforcements only. It is only after the dog knows and understands what is being asked of them, do we apply an appropriate correction for noncompliance or to eliminate dangerous behaviors. We love dogs and would rather them be uncomfortable for a second with a correction than be hurt or killed by performing dangerous activities. For more information or to set up a behavioral assessment, contact us by phone at (309) 798-3060 or by email at [email protected]

Introducing Sophie to ClaireBear has helped her tremendously on her reactivity journey. Today she helped give Sophie and her pawpaw the confidence to walk through the farmer's market! Which neither owner or dog is thrilled of crowds.

Sophie needed a friend about her size, play style, and energy level, so I decided to introduce her and ClaireBear. When I introduce two dogs I take them on a controlled walk or two first and only let them interact after they're calm and neutral with each other. That walk tired both my princesses out and neither wanted to play 🤣 Match made in heaven

Sophie and I had a great time at my favorite childhood park yesterday! Since our last board and train, I notice she's really regressed in feeling comfortable in unfamiliar places (even ones we spent a lot of time at) and in her overall confidence. So as she's with me this week we are really focusing on getting her in as many new locations as possible and building up her confidence. I'll be uploading some videos of that to my story! Go check them out! I'm so proud of her. Both her and her dad have improved so much together this week as we've been working!

Sophie and I ran into these three finishing up a 3 mile walk today! I was told Louie is still doing amazing with his reactivity and his mom's getting to enjoy him so much more now that he's willing and excited to explore with her! ❤️

Rampage is gaining so much confidence! At our evaluation he was pretty shy and timid. When we went on a walk he clung to his owners and really just wanted to go home. 5 sessions in and he's excited to leave the house, exploring on his own, and even starting to lift his leg and kick after 💩ing (both signs of confidence). Today he learned how to use his back legs 🥰

Double trouble 🥰

Working with one of my favorite breeds 😍 Rampage used to go to doggie daycare and got bullied by other dogs, so now he's pretty nervous and reactive around other dogs. Welcome aboard handsome boy!

Little ecollar training with Tito. I can't wait until he's experiencing the freedom to run as fast as his legs can take him unencombered by leashes or fences!

My smart but lazy boy 🤣

First time I met this boy he was so overwhelmed that I was there, he cycled through crying, barking, neurotically licking me, nibbling my hands, and feriousiously happy hugging my leg for the entire hour I was talking with his family. The families main concern was that he would run the fence with the neighbor dogs and be incapable of being stopped or recalled. After doing all our ground work, we were going to do our first session directly working on the issue today, but when the neighbors let their dogs out Max had no interest in them. Instead he opted to request some pets and a snuggle from me, which I was happy to oblige. Look how relaxed he is! We still have some work to go, but his mom and him are putting in the work and making significant progress! So very proud and excited for these guys!

I love seeing how much confidence this boy has gained! His mom is putting in so much hard work and it's paying off in big ways! 🥳

So proud of Rico! He's coming a long way and gaining so much confidence! He was out exploring and checking things out without being velcroed to his mom and sister!

Having some fun and building confident puppies!

2nd day of Reactivity training with Louie! He and his mother did so well!

Just sitting, observing, and practicing calm down at the farmer's market. This handsome boy is still looking for a family. He'll do best as an only dog. Please help us find him a home 🙏
