If you haven't come to see us for a Tandem Tuesday at a Minot Hot Tots game yet, there are only a couple of chances left this season! Our Bat Dogs work hard and they'd love some extra pets!

Bat Dogs will be featured on Corbett Field on July 8th and 29th for the Hot Tots games. We'd also love to hear all about your dog and how we can help you achieve your training goals, so be sure to purchase tickets and come see us while you enjoy America's favorite pastime! ๐Ÿ•โšพ๏ธ

We are so proud to have been a part of Freya's journey and her mission with the local PD! ๐Ÿš“

We are really thrilled to see our local law enforcement embracing the different applications of canine units, since there are so many more uses outside of patrol and detection. Freya is filling a huge role in therapy and comfort work and we know she'll do an absolutely amazing job! She is truly a lovely dog and Caisee has done such a great job with her training.

It's so cool to have watched this dog grow from a tiny puppy and now get to do her big girl job! ๐Ÿ‘ฎโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ•โ€๐Ÿฆบ

We finally had a beautiful weekend for an outdoor Polishing Class! โ˜€๏ธ๐ŸŒˆ

These lovely pups came back for refreshers on leash manners, worked through dog reactivity, and then finished up learning about how to further advance obedience through play. ๐ŸฅŽ๐Ÿ•

We know training sometimes gets put aside during the winter, which is why we always encourage clients to come back to polishing classes even if it's just once at the beginning of summer to get back on track. We want to make sure your pup is as ready for summer adventures as you are!

As a reminder, you can book polishing classes via the client portal on our website or text Nicole at 701-353-1224. Come join us next time!

Please keep an eye out for Freya! We worked with Freya in preparation for her debut as the Comfort K9 for the police department and we know her owner is absolutely distraught. If you see Freya, please reach out and help us get this girl home and back to her job!

Update (As of 5:26 p.m.) - Freya has been safely located!

Thank you to everyone who helped by sharing and searching.

Update (As of 3:08 p.m.) โ€“ Still Searching for Freya

As many of you have heard, our Wellness Dog, Freya, went missing this morning around 8:45 a.m. near the Scheels South Hill Softball Complex. We have been actively searching for her since then but have not yet been successful.

After speaking with Freyaโ€™s trainers, they advised that she may have moved upwind and could be in low-lying areas, such as coulees, or possibly hiding under decks, in window wells, or similar sheltered spots. If she was spooked, itโ€™s likely she is laying low and may not come out just from hearing her name called. Physically checking under and around objects will likely be the best way to locate her.

Freya may not respond to unfamiliar voices, so if you spot her or find her hiding, please call the Minot Police Department immediately at 701-852-0111 so someone familiar to her can come assist.

Her trainers also mentioned that in these circumstances, she may travel up to a mile per day.

Please keep these details in mind if youโ€™re helping in the search.

Missing Comfort K9 โ€“ Help Us Find Freya

This morning around 8:45 a.m., our soon-to-be-introduced Comfort K9, Freya, went missing in the neighborhood near the Scheels South Hill Softball Complex.

Freya may have taken off after a rabbit or something that caught her attention. She is wearing a black e-collar and is very friendly.

While we havenโ€™t officially introduced Freya to the public yet, sheโ€™s already become an important part of our teamโ€”and weโ€™re eager to have her back safe and sound.

If you see her or have any information, please contact Minot Central Dispatch at 701-852-0111.

Please help spread the word and keep an eye out. We truly appreciate the support.

We couldn't be more excited to officially announce the addition of another trainer to our team, Sarah Hansen! ๐Ÿฅณ๐Ÿฅณ๐ŸŽ‰

Sarah is an ABC certified trainer who originally completed her mentorship hours for her certification with us, and now she's back as a full time trainer! She's been learning all about our training process over the last few months and is now officially taking new clients. Sarah is by no means new to dog training as she regularly hunts with her two golden retrievers, Copper and Ruby. We've really enjoyed watching Sarah work with client dogs and we know she'll be an amazing addition to our team!

As Nicole transitions out of ND (don't worry, she'll still be behind the scenes), Sarah will be taking over our private lesson programs and continuing to provide top notch training for our local clients. Help us give her a warm welcome!

Rocco graduated today and gets to live his best life out at TC Nursery! ๐Ÿ•๐ŸŒฒ๐ŸŒฒ

He can now be trusted off leash around the grounds so that his owner can focus on providing quality plants and services to local customers. That kind of freedom is the ultimate goal for lots of dogs and their owners, and we are always thrilled to be able to help achieve that! This handsome guy gets to be a part of the family AND the family business without having to be locked away during business hours. Who wouldn't want that?

If that sounds exactly like something you'd want for your dog, contact us today so we can help you achieve all your training goals!

Puppies, puppies, and more puppies! ,๐Ÿถ

We love building happy, confident puppies and sometimes that means asking them to do things they might not normally do. These things might look random and just for fun, but asking puppies to step on or interact with things they may not see in every day life helps them to feel brave and teaches body awareness that comes in handy later in life.

The grit and rolling motion of a skateboard might frighten an older dog who has never seen one, but curious puppies are much more likely to bounce back from the initial uncertainty. Putting paws up on a wobbly peanut ball or walking across an uneven surface builds awareness of where their feet are and how to use them (because puppies can be clumsy!). And crawling through the small, dark space of a tunnel can be intimidating, but with a little encouragement these guys all found their courage and were running through on their own in no time!

Oh, and a little bonus blep from a puppy who couldn't make it to class. ๐Ÿ˜›

If you've got a new puppy and need some help getting started on the right paw, come join in the fun for Puppy Life Skills! Contact us today at www.minotdogtraining.com/contact-us to get signed up.

Sticking to the theme of drop-in style group classes, check out our new Go Anywhere On-Leash and Off-Leash series!

Whether you're only interested in having a dog who isn't a nightmare on a leash, or want to go the extra mile for off-leash obedience but can't commit to a full private lesson or board and train program, this group class series is a great option! The group class portion of these programs is all drop-in style, meaning we have a few time slots per week for you to choose from with all classes covering the same topic each week, and every four weeks those topics start over. So if you miss a week, that week's topic will always come back around so you don't need to worry about being "behind" or missing important info. Plus, you can jump into classes right away instead of waiting for a designated start date!

We're excited to offer this new style of group class for our Minot dog owners! Class sizes are limited, so sign up now to get started right away and see how quickly your dog can change!

Send a text to (701) 353-1224 or schedule a free phone consultation at www.minotdogtraining.com/contact for more information or to sign up.

We're doing something a little different for puppies this year! Our new drop-in style Puppy Life Skills classes are open to puppies under 5 months of age, and you get unlimited access until your puppy ages out - for one flat rate!

Normally, we only offer this as an add-on to our training programs (because training doesn't stop after puppyhood!) but for the first month of classes we're making Puppy Life Skills available as a standalone purchase. Classes start on January 20th at 6:00 pm, so you have until February 20th to get in on this deal!

Socializing young puppies is incredibly important, but we also want to help you through the more frustrating parts of puppy raising. In each class, we'll discuss different topics like getting puppy to sleep in their crate, smoothing out the potty training process, teaching simple manners, and more!

Give your puppy a chance to learn how to play with other dogs while you learn how to make raising a puppy easier! And since these are drop-in classes, there will always be another class coming up if you miss one. So no pressure!

Text or call (701) 353-1224 or schedule a free phone consultation at www.minotdogtraining.com/contact to get your puppy signed up!

Another amazing winter Polishing Class this weekend!

Three of these dogs are recent graduates using these group classes to continue developing their skills with bigger distractions. Two of those three have shown some reactivity, and both of them got to practice approaching and meeting other dogs appropriately, and ignoring when needed.

We even had a client come back who went through training almost a year and half ago! Our goal is to provide lifetime training support whenever our clients need us, because training always takes maintenance and we know sometimes life gets in the way. Polishing Classes aren't just for fresh graduates who want to continue building their skills, they're also for getting back on track whenever you need it.

If you want this kind of ongoing support when training your dog, we've got you covered! ALL of our programs include lifetime access to Polishing Class for FREE, whether you choose to do group classes, private lessons, or a board and train.

Want to know what else is included with our programs? Schedule your free phone consultation at www.minotdogtraining.com/contact

We had an amazing Polishing Class this past weekend! Even though winter classes are limited, we try to make the most of our space and these dogs all rocked it! โญ๐Ÿถ

Always fun to get some lovely teams together to practice around distractions, and even better to see some faces we haven't seen in a while. An extra bonus is watching previously reactive dogs excel at working around other dogs and people.

Thank you to everyone who participated, and to those planning to attend the January class which is already FULL! The next available class will be in February, but if they stay filled and we still have interest we will consider adding more of these classes to give everyone a chance to come and practice.

If it's been more than a year or two since you worked with us and you did not receive a portal login email, please contact us at (701) 353-1224 so we can get you set up!

My Story

I have been training and competing with my own dogs for over 10 years, and I love sharing my knowledge and experience. I know how difficult it can be find solutions to problems you don't even know the cause of, which is why I want to help YOU find the best solution for your dog training struggles. I really love helping people transform their frustrating, "I can't keep him if he doesn't stop" dogs into happy, welcome members of the family. However, I am also a huge advocate for prevention. I love working with puppies, because I believe the best way to avoid hardship is to prevent bad habits before they start. The sooner puppies start learning good habits, the easier they will be to handle as they grow into adult dogs, and the less likely they are to have behavior problems that need to be "fixed" later in life. Dog training is my passion, and I so enjoy getting to share that passion with people in a way that helps them have a happy, stress-free relationship with their dogs.
