🐾🌟 It's Training Tip Tuesday! Let's dial down the hyper and crank up the calm with these 3 savvy strategies to teach your dog the fine art of relaxation. 🧘‍♂️🐕

1. **Settle on a Mat**: Introduce a special mat or bed as the 'chill zone.' Begin with brief sessions and extend the chill time as your pup masters the art of relaxation. Think of it as their personal lounge spot!

2. **Controlled Greetings**: Keep greetings mellow. Train your dog to sit calmly before being petted, rather than jumping up like they're trying out for the high jump. 🚫🎪

3. **Reward Calmness**: Reinforce calm behavior with praise or a gentle stroke rather than excitement. This encourages them to seek out peaceful moments over chaotic ones.

Turning your energetic pup into a model of serenity is all about consistency and patience. Ready to bring some tranquility into your training routine? [Visit our website](https://www.alwaysfaithfuldogs.com/new-orleans) for more tips on fostering a composed companion. 🐕💤

🎓🌟 Hats off to Sebastian, our star labradoodle grad, and his fantastic human, Shannon! 🎉 In just a few weeks, this dynamic duo has turned training sessions into a showcase of smarts and charm.

Sebastian came to us knowing his basics, but boy, did he polish those skills to shine! From mastering the art of the perfect sit with just a hand signal to refining his 'come' and 'down' commands, this pup's quick learning left us all wagging with pride. 🐾🧠

Shannon, ever the enthusiastic coach, has matched Sebastian's eagerness step by step. Their latest win? A leisurely leash walk where Sebastian, amid squirrels and all the park's distractions, chose to stick by Shannon's side like a true gentleman—no tugs needed!

Cheers to Sebastian for barely batting an eye at those squirrels during his grad session at the park. 🐿️👀 Here's to many more relaxed strolls and fewer squirrel chases!

🐾💸 Thinking about adding a furry friend to your family but worried about the cost? Let's bark about the budget-friendly magic of pet adoption and training! 🎉

Adopting a pet doesn't have to break the bank. Many shelters offer low adoption fees that often include vaccinations, spaying/neutering, and microchipping—a real steal deal! Plus, by choosing adoption, you're saving a life and making room for another pet in need. 🐶❤️

Investing in training early on is another wallet-wise move. It helps iron out any ruff behavior early, preventing pricey problems down the road. Think of training like a good education—pay a little now, save a lot later! 📚🐕

🍽️🐕 Ever caught your pup eyeing your dinner plate with those "Feed me, please!" eyes? While sharing is caring, not all human foods are pup-approved. Here’s the lowdown on what’s a treat and what’s trouble for your furry friend!

👍 **Yes, Please!**:
1. **Carrots**: Crunchy and great for their teeth!
2. **Peanut Butter**: Make sure it’s xylitol-free for a gooey treat they’ll go nuts for!
3. **Chicken**: Plain, cooked chicken is a protein-packed snack.

🛑 **No, Thanks!**:
1. **Chocolate**: This is a big no-no. It’s like kryptonite for canines!
2. **Grapes & Raisins**: Might look like a tasty treat, but they're seriously toxic.
3. **Onions & Garlic**: These kitchen staples can cause some real doggy drama.

Sharing your snack? Make sure it's safe first! Want to learn more about keeping your dog healthy and happy?

🐶🌟 Myth-Buster Alert! Did you hear the one about aggression being breed-specific? Let's sniff out the truth: it's all about the temperament, not the tag! Here’s how to pick your perfect shelter pup, focusing on their personality instead of their pedigree:

1. **Meet and Greet**: Don’t just fall for puppy dog eyes; spend some time together! See how the dog interacts with you and others in different settings. It’s like sp*ed dating but with more tail wags and fewer awkward silences.

2. **Ask for a History Lesson**: Learn about their past interactions and behaviors if available. It's like checking references for a new roommate who eats your shoes instead of your food.

3. **Observe and Ask**: Watch how they react to stimuli like toys, people, and other dogs. A calm, curious dog might be a chill companion, while a more reactive pup may need a patient, experienced hand.

Remember, every dog is an individual, regardless of their breed. Looking to expand your furry family with a personality-packed pup? [Visit our website](https://www.alwaysfaithfuldogs.com/new-orleans) and let Always Faithful Dog Training help you find your match made in doggy heaven! 🐾💕

🎉 Happy Birthday, Snoopy! 🎂 Did you know that everyone's favorite beagle first brightened up our comic strips way back on October 4, 1950? Yup, that's quite the stretch of years charming the socks off us without even trying! 🐾🎈

Snoopy, the doghouse-dwelling, aviation-ace, has been more than just a pet to Charlie Brown—he's a legend in his own right. From his iconic red doghouse to his alter-ego as the World War I Flying Ace chasing the Red Baron, Snoopy's adventures have never been less than epic. 🛩️

His love for root beer and knack for turning supper time into an event are only outshined by his philosophical musings atop his doghouse. Over the years, he's taught us the importance of friendship, imagination, and the occasional dance move. 💃

So here's to Snoopy—may you continue to inspire and entertain us with your boundless spirit and unfailing good humor. Here's hoping your birthday is filled with lots of pats, treats, and maybe a new typewriter ribbon! 🎉🐶

🎓🌟 Say hello to Necco, the chill catahoula/pit mix who's graduated from puppy obedience with flying colors! He's got the demeanor of Eeyore, but don't let that fool you—this laid-back pup is a quick learner, especially when it comes to snoozing through commands. 🐾😴

Necco was recently adopted by our client's son and has been keeping the peace at home, mastering the art of the 'lazy sit'—you know, where sit turns into an accidental lie-down. He aced the 'come' command too, just be ready to catch him if you call—he comes in hot!

Under our client's expert guidance (she’s been wrangling horses for years!), Necco's transformed from a shelter pup into a puppy prodigy. Their training sessions ended on a high note with Necco making a furry BFF, proving he's as social as he is serene.

Missing this sweet, mellow fellow already but excited for all his next adventures! Need help with your own canine sidekick? Always Faithful Dog Training is just a click away! [Visit our website](https://www.alwaysfaithfuldogs.com/new-orleans) and let’s get those tails wagging! 🐕🎓

🐾🐶 Meeting the new fur-sibling for the first time? Here’s how to make sure it’s love at first sniff, not a furry feud!

1. **Neutral Grounds**: Start introductions in a neutral area like a park. No one wants to make a new friend in their own bedroom, right?

2. **Leash and Easy**: Keep both pups on leashes during their first meet-up. It’s like having a chaperone at the first date!

3. **Sniff and Greet**: Allow them to sniff each other — it’s their way of saying "Hey, I might like you!" Keep the leashes loose, no tension.

4. **Home Sweet Home**: Once they seem chill, bring them into the home together. A shared adventure back to the house sets a team vibe.

5. **Separate but Equal**: Give each dog their own space with separate beds and toys. Sharing is caring, but everyone appreciates having their own stuff.

Making new furry friends should be fun, not daunting! With these steps, you’ll be on your way to a harmonious household. Need more tips on making the introduction smooth? Always Faithful Dog Training is just a click away! [Visit our website](https://www.alwaysfaithfuldogs.com/new-orleans) for all the help you need.

🎓🐾 Cowboy the toy poodle has officially graduated from Basic Training with flying colors! 🎉 This little guy went from being a door-dashing, anxious p*e-er to a recall and stay command pro. Kudos to Kaitlin and her family for their dedication and fun energy throughout the training.

We worked on leash walking, and Cowboy outshined even the other poodles with his focus and quick learning. Door control was a family affair—everyone got involved, and they nailed it! Imaginary friends, beware—Cowboy's got this.

📜🐕 Ever caught your dog snacking on your homework? Here’s how to curb their paper-eating antics and save your documents (and their belly) from an unfortunate fate!

1. **Distract and Replace**: Catch your dog eyeing that paper towel? Redirect their attention with a chew toy or a bone. Consistently offering a more appealing alternative can teach them what’s chewable and what’s not.

2. **Training and Commands**: Use commands like "leave it" or "drop it" during training sessions. Reward them with belly rubs or affection for obedience, reinforcing good behavior over their paper-chewing habits.

3. **Secure Your Stash**: Keep paper products out of reach. Use closed bins for recycling and trash, and store important papers in drawers or cabinets. Out of sight, out of mind—and mouth!

Need more help turning your paper-loving pooch into a well-mannered pup? Always Faithful Dog Training is here with tricks and tips to tackle any quirky habit. [Visit our website](https://www.alwaysfaithfuldogs.com/new-orleans) and let's keep those paper products safe and sound! 🐾🚫📄

🌟 "The best training tip out there is so simple it likely slips your mind: catch your dog doing something right." 🐶✨

Ever felt like your pup's personal paparazzi, snapping pics of their silliest moments? Well, it's time to catch them in the act of being awesome, too! Positive reinforcement isn't just throwing a party every time your dog sits; it's about celebrating the small victories that happen every day.

1. **Timing is Everything**: Reward your dog the moment they do something great, not five minutes later. It’s like hitting the buzzer on a game show—immediate gratification!

2. **Mix It Up**: How about a good belly rub or their favorite toy? Sometimes the best rewards are a scratch behind the ears or a quick game of fetch. 🎾🐕

3. **Consistency is Key**: Catch them being good regularly! The more you reinforce good behavior, the more they’ll show off their best side.

So, next time you see your furry friend acing life, make it count! Ready to become a pro at spotting the good stuff? Always Faithful Dog Training is here to guide you every step of the way! [Visit our website](https://www.alwaysfaithfuldogs.com/new-orleans) and let's turn those good moments into great habits! 🌟🐾

🐾👀 Ever notice how your pup seems to have a sixth sense for your moods? Yep, they're not just fluffy cuties; they're emotion-sensing wizards!

Dogs are incredibly attuned to our body language. A slumped shoulder or a happy dance can speak volumes to your four-legged friend. It’s like they’re reading an emotional weather report, and trust me, they’re always tuned in! 🌦️🕺

This is why leadership isn't just about commands; it's about confidence and calmness. Your vibe sets the tone for their behavior. So next time you’re with your pup, remember: stand tall, stay positive, and watch them mirror your cool, collected leadership.

🐾 Did you know that improperly fitted collars are a leading cause of dogs turning into accidental escape artists? Yep, about 60% of doggy disappearances are due to slipping out of their collars. Let's "buckle down" and get the fit right, shall we? 🐶✨

1. **The Two-Finger Rule**: Slide two fingers between the collar and your dog's neck. If it's a snug fit but not too tight, you're on the right track. It’s like making sure your jeans are comfy—tight enough not to fall, loose enough to dance!

2. **Check Regularly**: As dogs grow or change weight, their collar needs can shift. Give that collar a quick check-up every couple of months—think of it as a "neck check" to keep them safe and secure.

3. **Mind the Material**: Not all collars are created equal. Choose a material that suits your dog’s lifestyle. For the swimmers and mud-lovers, something waterproof and easy to clean will make life easier.

Don’t let your furry friend become MIA! Keep them safely styled in a well-fitted collar. 🎩🐕 Need more tips or a collar check? Always Faithful Dog Training is here to help! [Visit our website](https://www.alwaysfaithfuldogs.com/new-orleans) and let's keep those tails wagging safely on home turf!

🎓🐾 Meet Flapjack, the jumping jack turned therapy pro! 🐶✨

Say hello to Flapjack, our star pupil who just graduated from therapy dog training with flying colors! This furball had a bit of a hopping habit, but with some help and a lot of laughs, he learned that keeping all four paws on the ground gets him all the love and cuddles he wants. Artrice, his dedicated owner, teamed up with us to transform Flapjack from a bouncy buddy into a calm, caring therapy dog for kids.

Flapjack's journey wasn't just about sitting pretty; it was about nailing the perfect "down" in the middle of Lowe's despite the echo of clattering carts, and mastering the calm approach to meet new little friends at the ballpark. He might have started as the life of the party, but he's graduated as the soul-soothing heart of any children's group, bringing smiles and gentle tail wags to everyone he meets. 🌟

Whether he's navigating the distractions of a busy store or charming kids at the park, Flapjack has shown that with a bit of guidance, any pup can become a hero.

🐾 **Myth vs. Fact with a Side of Woof!** 🌟

**Myth**: Dogs bolt because they’re plotting their great escape from your home-cooking.
**Fact**: More like they’re chasing squirrels or sniffing out the neighbor’s barbecue! Dogs often dash not due to a home critique but because their curious noses lead them on a little too adventurous pursuits.

🕵️‍♂️ Let’s get real—dogs don’t pack their bags and leave notes; they follow their instincts! Whether it's a butterfly that looked at them funny or that epic smell wafting from two blocks away, it’s about exploring, not escaping family love.

**Pro Tip**: Turn your backyard into Fort Knox with secure fencing and make your home the hotspot with games and puzzles that keep those brain gears too busy for wandering. Regular "come here" practice? A must! It turns their runaway rehearsals into encore performances right back to you!

🏡🐕 Ever feel like your home is more of a wild jungle for your furry friend than a cozy den? Yup, our comfy human caves can sometimes feel like uncharted territory to our four-legged pals!

Imagine this: You're a dog, and suddenly, you're expected to swap the great outdoors for a place with weird smells (like those mysterious "candles"), strange sounds (what *is* that thing that heats food so fast?), and rules about where you can and can’t p*e (apparently, not on the living room rug—oops).

It’s no wonder some pups might think about making a break for it! But don’t worry, being the awesome pet parent you are, you can help make your home feel like a five-star resort for your dog, not Alcatraz.

🌟 **Training Tip Tuesday:** One golden nugget of advice? Create a 'safe zone'! 🛖 A special spot with their bed, favorite toys, and maybe an old shirt that smells like you. This isn't just a retreat; it's their personal chill-out zone where everything is familiar and comforting. It's like their mini-vacation spot right in your living room!

Make this area the fun zone—play games here and give cuddles when they hang out there calmly. This way, they'll associate this safe space with all things good and relaxing. Plus, it reinforces your role as the grand tour guide of their new world, not the warden!

Ready to transform your home from strange to splendid for your pooch? 🐾 Always Faithful Dog Training is here to help make your home the ultimate doggy paradise.

🐾✨ Hey pet lovers, July 21 is "No Pet Store Puppies Day!" 🎉

Did you know that many puppies in pet stores come from puppy mills, where the focus is on profit over well-being? That's no bueno for our furry friends. Imagine a world where every dog's puppyhood is more about love and less about dollars. That's the world we want, right? 🌍💕

Instead of supporting pet stores, why not play pet detective? Explore local shelters, reputable breeders, or rescue groups where the top priority is the health and happiness of the pups. These places are like five-star retreats for rescue dogs! 🌟🐕

Adopting? It’s like swiping right on your perfect match—except it’s forever, and they love you more than their chew toy. So, let’s make better choices that help end the demand for puppy mills.

If you want to learn more about what a puppy mill is and the conditions in which dogs are bred, you can visit the ASPCA's website at:

🎉 Shoutout to Kelly for turning the tide for Boone and his family! 🐾

Meet Boone, a pup who was more 'nervous Nellie' than 'carefree canine'—that is, until Kelly came along! Boone's world was a bit like a spooky movie, full of things that went bump (or bark) in the night. But Kelly, with her superhero trainer cape, changed all that. 🦸‍♀️

From day one, Kelly was all about that patience, taking the time to understand Boone's quirks and fears, tailoring a training program that was more 'custom suit' than 'off-the-rack.' Her secret weapon? Tons of positive reinforcement that not only taught Boone the cool canine ropes but also brought him closer to his family. 🐕💕

Now, Boone is swapping his anxious antics for confident capers, and daily walks are no longer the family's favorite horror film. Big cheers to Kelly for not just teaching tricks but transforming lives!

🎓🌟 Let's roll out the red carpet for Phoebe, our latest graduate from the School of Pawsome Behavior! 🐾🎓 From a little mischief-maker who loved to greet everyone a *bit* too enthusiastically, to a poised pup with impeccable manners—what a journey it's been!

Phoebe kicked off her training with some serious door control skills and a knack for nailing those group walks at the park. Remember when walks used to be a drag? Literally? Well, not anymore! Phoebe turned into a sidewalk superstar, strolling alongside her owners like she owned the place.

The real party trick came when Phoebe met a new doggy pal. Imagine going from zero to hero in the friend-making department in just one walk! 🐕🚶‍♂️ It was like, "Who is this social butterfly?" And let me tell you, the tail wags were off the charts!

Our grand finale? Making sure Phoebe was cool as a cucumber around kiddos. Bringing in some mini-helpers, she showed us her chill side, proving she’s mastered the art of being calm and collected.

So here’s to Phoebe—no longer the belle of the brawl, but the grace of the walk! 🌷 Want your dog to graduate with honors in good behavior? Check out Always Faithful Dog Training.

Door dashing can turn a fun game of hide and seek into a nerve-racking rescue mission. Here’s how to keep your four-legged friend safely indoors:

🐾📣 Mary Bly was spot on! It's like having a remote control for your dog—press 'come' and watch them zoom back like they forgot they left the oven on!

Here’s how to make sure your dog’s "come" button works every time:
1. **Quiet Corner Practice:** Kick things off where it's just you and your furry friend—no squirrels allowed! This keeps their focus laser-sharp on you.
2. **Consistency is Comical:** Always use the same call—it could be a word, a clap, or even a funny noise. Just keep it upbeat! Your dog might think you’re starting a new dance craze, but hey, whatever gets them moving!

🌟🐾 Calling all dog parents! Did you know that strong leadership is your secret weapon in preventing your furry friend from turning into an escape artist? Let's break it down!

Leadership isn't just about being the boss—it's about being the confident, calm guide your dog looks up to and wants to stick by. It’s less about laying down the law and more about showing the way! 🚶‍♂️🐕

When your dog views you as their trusted leader, they're less likely to wander off and more likely to stay close, even without a leash. It’s all about building that trust and respect which assures them that the best place to be is by your side.

Ready to step up your leadership game and keep your dog safely by your side? Always Faithful Dog Training is here to strengthen that bond. Check us out and let's keep your pup from pulling a Houdini! [Visit our website](https://www.alwaysfaithfuldogs.com/new-orleans) 🌟🐕
