Our Dog Training Basics class is the perfect first step for dogs new to training or those who could use a refresher on their manners.

This six-week class focuses on essential skills every dog (and their human) needs for everyday life: coming when called, walking politely on leash, greeting people without jumping, and mastering foundational cues like sit, down, and stay.

You’ll also learn how to strengthen communication and build a positive, trusting relationship with your dog.

Cold-weather hikes can be just as fun with a few simple adjustments.

Layer up, keep your pup warm, and make sure you’re both prepared for slippery or chilly conditions.
-Cut the tips off old gloves so you can easily manage the leash without freezing your fingers.
-Choose shoes or boots with good traction to stay steady on icy trails.
-Try grip gloves for warmth and control, especially if your dog tends to pull or stop suddenly.

Remember to bring water, treats, and keep an eye on your dog’s comfort level. With a little prep, winter walks can be some of the best adventures of the year!

By the time that reactive dog sees another dog across the parking lot, his arousal is already climbing. His nervous system is already hijacked. And you're asking him to make good choices with the part of his brain that's least available in that moment.

Think about what we're asking: "In your most aroused, stressed, triggered state, I need you to access self-regulation that you've never practiced when aroused."

It's like asking someone to perform surgery during their first code blue. The skills need to be established first, practiced extensively in lower-pressure situations, until the neural pathways are strong enough to access under stress.

Holiday Tip of the Week!

With guests coming and going, it’s easy for curious pups to slip out the door!

Set up a gate near your entryway to keep your dog safely inside. No space for a gate? Keep them leashed or comfortably crated during the holiday hustle.

A little preparation helps keep everyone safe and your celebrations stress-free!

I don’t usually post selfies, but this one felt right. A dear friend gifted me this hat, and the words stitched beneath our flag, Kindness Will Unite, hit home.

In the world of behavior, we talk about reinforcement and response, about how our actions shape those around us. The same applies not just to our dogs, but to the humans in our lives. What we reinforce, patience, compassion, and understanding, ripples outward.

Kindness is not weakness. It’s a choice to meet emotion with empathy, whether that emotion has fur, two legs, or a wagging tail.

Advocacy begins with empathy. When we speak up for our dogs, we learn to use our voice thoughtfully and with purpose. That same voice can, and should, stand for our fellow citizens and for those whose voices may not be heard.

May we all keep practicing the kind of communication that builds bridges, not barriers.

Communication and connection, not obedience.

At You and Your Dog Training & Services we specialize in communication training and behavior modification, with emphasis on reliable recalls and energy outlets to curb destructive behavior. We continually focus our work on strengthening the bond between dogs and their people. This is accomplished by teaching the basics of dog behavior with attention to animal behavior as a whole, using engaging, playful and fun methods and tools. Success is accomplished through connection and communication. Providing people with the skill-set to communicate and interact with their dogs with respect for balance and enriching coexistence is what You and Your Dog Training is all about.
