🧀 Cheese Days is upon us! 🇨🇭

just a friendly PSA that if you’re going to take your dog(s) to a large gathering, festival, event, etc. to make sure they are comfortable and capable of handling that level of stress and excitement. This can be a great opportunity for training, but can also be a dangerous situation if this isn’t an environment your dog is prepared for.

Proud of our crew for being such well behaved pups 😍

09/19/2024

So many happy faces!😊

Zeus has also been working on his boundaries of the property, gaining more freedom and his skills of playing and socializing with other dogs. All things he has been excelling at! I love, LOVE when our dogs grow so confident and understanding that they can have more freedom to run and play, and are not just limited to the fenced in play yard. It’s my absolute favorite thing 🥰

09/09/2024

I can’t get over how cute Zeus is 😍

Sunday morning relaxation session 🧘

We don’t come preprogrammed to relax when we need to. We have to make time for it, plan for it, *train* ourselves to do it. Yet, we expect our dogs to just “relax” without training them what that means or feels like.

Sure, your dog might be totally clonked out on the couch, but the moment that USPS man walks up to your door, your dog launches themselves off the couch, barking their head off and going ballistic. Now, you’re embarrassed, frustrated, and scratching your head as to why this is happening. That’s not being relaxed.

Trainers teach the place command to promote true relaxation. Communicating to the dog to shut their brain off. There’s no need to be ready to pounce. The nuisance barking isn’t needed nor will it be tolerated.
✨ just. relax. ✨

Dixie is doing just that this morning. Nearly a week of teaching what place means, we’re putting that command to work now. In true mini Schnauzer fashion, she wants to bark at everything. It’s high pitch, it’s dramatic, it’s annoying 🫠
The kids come upstairs, she’s barking. A car drives by, she’s barking. Someone comes to the door - oh yes, she’s barking! So we are rehabilitating that with the place command and she is learning SO quickly 🧠

If you’re dog could benefit from some place work, call me 😉

New offerings for those sport people 😍😍

My friend Cortney has graciously offered her space for use for weekend training days in Monroe! There has been more demand for lessons than open fields, so I'll be replacing the open fields with lesson blocks in Monroe. This should open up more options for some of you that are more south of Sauk.

As always, let me know if you have any questions!

These pups never fail to make us smile.

We are incredibly heartbroken by the loss of two of our client dogs this week, Lou & Ryder.
Lou and his brother Rip would frequent us for boarding and occasional daycare.
Ryder has been with us through training, weekly daycare visits, and lots of overnight stays.
This week has been a devastating one 💔

Our deepest sympathies are with their families 🪽 🌈

6 whole weeks of Snickers and we’ve come SO far! That nub is nearly vibrating on a daily basis. She loves to engage in play, she is enjoying our adventures away from “home”, and she’s loving our time of learning. We’ve have built an incredible relationship fueled by love and respect. Since I don’t have a magical crystal ball telling me the outcome of my training dogs, I really wasn’t sure what to expect from Snickers based on our first week. I certainly didn’t expect what I’ve gotten from her and I’m more than pleased with the outcome 🩷

The coolest thing about dog training: you can eff up and start over as many times as you need to until you get it right. I purchased my first German Shepherd in January of 2023. I was very new, very green as a sport dog handler. I was (I still am!) in awe of those insanely talented handlers with flashy, fun dogs! We worked our tails off together to earn his first title by October. It was pretty awesome for what we were able to accomplish together in a very short amount of time. Now, we’re 1.5 years together, and I’m all the way back to the basics, working on cleaning up his füss with food luring 🤷‍♀️ it’s actually fun to “retrain” with my new knowledge and learning base. Moral of the story, everything you do is a learning process. If you don’t like the end result, go back to the start line and try a new approach. Your dog won’t judge you, they’ll just be happy you’re playing with them!

This mornings, I was recording some videos of Diesel interacting and successfully being around other dogs. I was so excited to share this with his owners because they have seen a less ideal side of him, an aggressive side of him. I thought “wow, nearly 3 weeks and we’ve come THIS far!” We really have come a long ways — we need to give credit where credit is due. But moments after this video, Diesel & my GSD got into a pretty nasty scuffle & it took some serious effort to get them apart 😓 thankfully, they’re all okay! Anyhow, I watched these videos back and realized how inappropriate and rude Diesel was actually being towards Huey and trying to steal his toy. I was correcting him for it and helping redirect but it wasn’t enough for him to take the hint. I wanted to share this because transparency is a huge piece of the puzzle for me. I don’t work some crazy miracles, I don’t sprinkle some magic dust and the dogs just behave. But I am well versed in dog behavior and body language. I can read the room when I’m with dogs and I can advocate where it’s needed. To most, Diesel’s behavior looks playful and probably cute. In the dog translation, it’s annoying and rude. If this were a puppy doing this to its mom, she would correct him pretty harshly and he likely wouldn’t try it again. One of my friends said today: proper socialization is invaluable . And she is 100000% right. The reality of my life, my job is sometimes I have to break up dog fights 🤷‍♀️ sometimes I have to share the ugly truth with clients because I’m not here to work miracles. Sometimes I have to fail in order to succeed. Every case is different from the next, as is every outcome. This morning was less than ideal, but I love that I can learn from the experience and have another new approach to apply to a future case, because I’m sure there will be more like this in my career span. No matter what happened, there’s so much to learn and understand from this short cli
