Did you know we do individual lessons at the building for specific behaviors, confidence building, or even to celebrate a birthday?!
Well we do and it is so much fun!
Clover loved her special time at the building playing with all the things, but especially jumping!!

Luna has been working hard with learning to wear a muzzle and navigate through distractions!
Muzzle training should not be viewed as a punishment. Some dogs need an added safety net, and if trained appropriately can become just as comfortable as a collar. I like to make them a treat basket, rather than a basket muzzle.

Luna had a rough start in life and very little socialization. She has done great in her new home over the last few months but still has some fear of people. So we are working on that as well as muzzle training.
Luna has spent some time at our house before so she is already comfortable here. She had her first short muzzle session and rocked it!! She’s never seen a muzzle to my knowledge.

Penny, or known as Reese at Pet Helpers, Inc did a Puppy Board and Learn for about 10 days while when her recent adopter got her. Unfortunately the other dog in the home didn’t care for Penny/Reese and she back up for adoption. Penny was a quick learner and fit right in with my pack!! She was adorable too! So someone needs to adopt this girl!

Get a puppy they said…
It’ll be fun…
Get more than one…
Yep great fun!! Actually I love my puppies and just watching them explore the world and learn along the way! Digging is natural and as long as we can minimize to certain places, it’s just a yard…

How many people want this behavior on a leash?
There are all kinds of ways to get it, but until you understand why dogs pull on a leash, you won’t succeed in the dog learning to offer loose leash walking willingly.

I missed posting this a few weeks ago, but this is Shadow. Shadow came from the same hoarding situation that Mystique did. He has been in foster for about 6 months now and we are working on building his confidence and teaching him the world is ok. This is a huge step for him!!

So many people want this behavior but do not put in the work for it!!! I have been working with Cosmo for 5 weeks, 5 days a week. His mom has been phenomenal at working with him diligently too. The first time Cosmo came to outdoor seating, he never even sat. Today, within 2 minutes he laid down and has been there the whole time!
It takes knowing how to read your dog, rewarding the right choices they make, patience, and consistency! 🐾
So very proud of Cosmo and his mom on their progress!!
