Your Dog's Best Friend

We help dog owners transform into dog parents. Great things happen when we stop training & start rel
(1)

When we take a baby puppy from their parents we do our best to replace their nurture and fulfill the needs of our domestic dogs. Rather than studying dog training "a human creation" and teaching our dog. We can use the momentum of mother nature by studying the dogs and teaching ourselves.

Have a happy and safe Independence Day! 🎆

For those who have four legged family members that struggle with the big booms filling the sky tonight (and this weekend), here’s some of our best pointers to keep them safe.

1) Make sure they are secure: If you’re going out for a potty break and don’t know how they’ll respond, use a leash for safety and make sure they cannot slip out of their collar if panicked. If we’re going out to enjoy the fireworks and leaving them home, double check to make sure windows are closed and your best friend is in a safe spot where they can’t get hurt.

2) Remember how you respond tells our pups a lot about how to feel when they hear that noise. So be sure to relax and show them how to be safe.

3) If you’re staying home together, do something fun and make your own tradition! Gaia and I love a good hike in the morning, followed by movie night (keeps mom distracted) and baking dog cookies (keeps Gaia distracted with her nose).

Anyone else have a favorite 4th of July ritual with their best friend?

Look at Gil Go! Our shy guy started class unsure of the world around him. He spent week one against the wall, observing the other students play. With the support of his puppy pals and a loving human family to back him up, Gil grew more curious each week. By week four he was out in hubbub, making friends, and exploring. Way to go little buddy! #dogsrule #puppyplay #dogsocialization #shydog #puppyclass #puppiesofinstagram #dogsofmsp

Nothing like a good foster play session @happytailsrescuemn! Ps all three of these are looking for their forever homes. Check them out on the Happy Tails website. #dogsofinstagram #dogsocialization #fosterdogs #rescuedogsofinstagram #dogtraining

If only humans were as determined to help each other as dogs are. Moss and Trixie are the perfect example. Moss has been working hard to help her friend Trixie feel comfortable in class. Last night all that effort payed off and Trixie played with her new pal. #dogsrule #ilovedogs #dogsocialization #puppyplay #mansbestfriend #dogsofinstagram #dogsofmsp

Our Story

Rather than studying dog training and teaching the dogs, we use the momentum of mother nature by studying the dogs and teaching ourselves. This allows us to continually learn and grow. We continue to break new ground in our foundational puppy classes and behavior rehabilitation programs.
