Practice Makes Perfect!
What cue does your dog know best? Most dogs ace the Sit because they get asked to sit repeatedly throughout their lives in every situation and environment they are introduced to! Mollie and Millie are practicing Spot in a variety of environments with lots of obstacles and distractions - they’ve got this!

Live music at the sniff lounge!
The pups all enjoyed a private concert on their training break today.
Millie and Mollie’s big day at training camp
Lots of recall, keeping it simple so they can succeed. Good times romping with friends and a little rest here and there!
Spot!
Go to your place and lie down! Useful for so many things from opening the front door to bring in groceries to just for fun and mental stimulation!
First day of training!
It’s 9 week old Romeo’s first day training date here and look what a good (and cute) boy he is doing a group settle!
Recall success!
Congrats Dolores, Molly, and Millie on the great progress you are making on your training journey! So awesome to see the girls recalling so quickly at their first day in a big public park. Dolores you are doing such good work with these two rascals!
Captain’s Retreat at Bear Creek - a Sniffspot in Mocksville NC
Have you considered renting a Sniffspot to give your pup a chance hang out and do dog things? Sniffspot is kind of like Airbnb for dogs - it’s a site that you can rent backyards and private dog parks by the hour. W just made the trek to Captain’s Retreat in Mocksville NC - about an hour from Morganton. It was a beautiful trip - well worth the drive! Here’s a few snippets of our dogs having the time of their lives!

Keeping your dog safe in the summer heat
It’s hot today and I’m already noticing signs of discomfort with my guy Leo, who is very heat sensitive. I pulled out his cooling jacket today to get him used to wearing it on summer walks. It’s very important to limit heat/sun exposure on hot summer days - some dogs will not show any stress until the collapse, and organ damage and even death can result from overheating. Check out this cool jacket! Even with the jacket, Leo’s walks will be short in the heat, but this will help keep him comfortable while we are out.
There are many brands. If you have a brand you recommend, please list in the comments!
Here is a link to the one Leo is wearing: Ruffwear, Swamp Cooler Dog Vest, Evaporative Cooling for Hot Weather, Compatible with Most Harnesses, Sage Green, Medium https://a.co/d/3PEKfCS

Adopt Luna at Rusty’s Legacy
Spending my day with a dog in need of a home was time used well. Someone come get this sweet girl Luna! She’s a young adult lab/plott hound mix, spayed and up to date on vaccinations. She is easy to be with, learns quickly, and will melt your heart with her soulful eyes. I will provide 2 free training sessions to her adopter to set her up for success, and since I offer sessions via Zoom, location is not a barrier. Luna is available at Rusty’s Legacy in Marion, NC.
Do you have a teenage dog in need of training? Does the idea of taking your boisterous pup to a class with other people and dogs make you want to tuck your tail and run? Join my Zoom class - it's the perfect option to allow you and your dog to relax, focus, and learn in the comfort of your home. Woof Woof! Use code HALFOFF for...HALF OFF! Classes start Thursday, January 18 at 7pm and are recorded for those who can't swing the Thursday night time. I hope to see you and your adolescent dog in class.

Maka the Golden Retriever available for adoption!
Look! Maka the Golden Retriever is available for adoption through Rusty's Legacy! She is in foster/train at All The Dogs Grooming & Training and is such a quick learner and good girl. I took her out for a field trip and she was great at the park. At my home, she was a rockstar with my 2 teenage dogs, and loved the group playtime. True to her breed’s nature, she’s loves attention and has lots of energy - a home with a canine companion would give her an outlet for her energy and desire to play. Like all teenagers, she will thrive in a home with a solid routine, structured rest time, and predictable rules and boundaries. She is crate and house trained and ready to meet her new family. Contact Rusty’s Legacy to put in your application today!
