This heat is dangerous ‼️

Dogs can overheat FAST!

Remember, they can’t sweat like we can to cool their bodies down. They pant, but it’s not enough in heat like this.

Keep visits to the outdoors BRIEF this week! No dog has ever died from missing a walk, but they do die from heat stroke. 💔

If your dog will be in the car, PLEASE for the love of dog, cool down the car BEFORE they get in!!!

And I hope we all know this by now, but don’t leave them in the car unattended—even while you “run in real quick”. We hear stories every summer about dogs dying in hot cars. Again, it happens fast. Don’t let it happen to you!!!

Don’t impulse adopt! 🤪

I know it seems like a good idea at the time, but if you’re not prepared to welcome home a new dog (for the long haul!) then it’s not in your best interest OR the dog’s.

Consider these 5 things before you finalize the adoption!

Those 4th of July festivities are right around the corner… bring your questions about how to keep your dog safe and calm! 🎆

As always, ANY dog question is welcome—not just 4th of July questions. ☺️

You can ask about training, walking, field trips, living with multiple dogs, large breeds, small breeds… literally anything dog!

I’ll be at from 3-4pm with my Froot Loop Latte (best ever!) and ready to chat.

See you there??

The last slide is the most challenging!

It’s hard for a lot of folks to understand that dog training isn’t JUST about the dog.

Sometimes you need to change how you communicate, what you expect, etc.

It’s a two-way street.

But if you can do your part AND be realistic about your goals, then results will come faster than you think!

This is our last class before summer really kicks off—don’t miss this chance to get your dog’s skills ready for summer adventures!

You and your dog learn how to work TOGETHER in this class. That’s the foundational skill for navigating the world together.

Other summer-related skills that we touch on in this class:

👉Place - the ability to lie down and stay there, which is helpful for group gatherings when you don’t want your dog underfoot.

👉Come - you’ll learn the beginning stages of a reliable recall (coming when called).

👉Down - think of the down command as a mobile “off button” because that’s exactly what it is!

👉Leash manners - walking nicely on a leash is absolutely essential for adventuring with you.

Goose has come such a long way!!

This friendly boy was on the verge of being TOO friendly—he would pull toward every person in the vicinity to say hi! While this isn’t a bad thing, it’s still stressful for his family.

Goose’s family enrolled him in my group class where he learned how to relax on his mat and observe people without jumping up every time they get close. And now, Goose can go to soccer games without being a wild child!

He can calmly chill and watch the game with his family just like they’d hoped for him all along.

Bonus: he’s still super friendly, so if someone approaches, he’s happy to greet them. 🥰

I asked one of my graduates what advice they needed to hear at the beginning of their journey with their stranger-reactive dog, and this is what they said.

It takes time, but it’s time well spent!

Tired of the canine chaos? Let’s restore calm!

My journey to become a dog trainer began as a journey to restore calm to my own household. I had two dogs with serious aggression issues, and I knew something had to change if I wanted to keep everyone safe, healthy and happy. I sent one of my dogs to a board & train program and when she was ready to come home I soaked up all the knowledge I could from our trainer. I committed to making the changes necessary to keep her in the best behavioral shape possible—and the results blew me away! This inspired me to embark on a journey to learn as much about dog behavior as possible, and ultimately set me on the path to becoming a dog trainer myself.

I chose to name my business “Chaos to Calm” because that phrase best represents what balanced training has done for my household. What was once chaos was now calm—calmer than I ever thought possible! It is no exaggeration to say that balanced training has changed all of our lives for the better, and that is what I hope to share with others.

If you need help with your dog, I hope you’ll reach out. I can be reached here on Facebook or through my website, ChaostoCalmK9Training.com. I look forward to meeting you!
