My name is Andrea Logan and I have been helping dogs and their people my whole life. How can Lead Dog help you?

• I will help you understand your dog’s behavioral issues and help you find the right training style for you and your dog.

• I will help you build a better bond with your dog.

• I will coach you on how to be the leader your dog NEEDS you to be – a kind, confident, consistent and calm

leader.

• We’ll make a practical plan for you to have the harmonious relationship with your dog you’ve always wanted. I offer a courtesy phone call to see if I can help you. I have been in animal welfare for over 20 years, helped rehabilitate challenging foster dogs, and helped friends, family and pet owners in the community with their dogs for some time. I have worked with several professional dog trainers of various methods and immersed myself in all things dog: taking courses for dog trainers, reading many dog training and behavior articles and books, watching videos. My personal dogs have been through all levels of obedience, and have participated in agility, nose work, rally and barn hunt. Our current dog, Luke, has been in training continually for his entire first year with us, and will continue for the foreseeable future. I have experience with positive training, balanced training, leadership, dog sports and the way your energy effects your life with your dog. The current training and dog behavior climate is at best confusing for dog parents, and filled with judgement and even shaming at worst. You can easily waste time and money going down the road with the wrong training style. Worse yet, it can leave you frustrated and damage your relationship with your dog. Maybe it already has. I can help you sort through the options, navigate resources and come up with a detailed holistic plan to build the relationship with your dog you have always wanted. Didn’t you envision that living with a dog would be fun and joyful? It can. Be the leader and partner your dog NEEDS you to be. I’m here to share my years of experience to help you and your dog. I can save you time, money and heartache by getting you on the right track now with customized recommendations. You can benefit from my experience and education. I have weeded through the overwhelming amount of information about dog training and behavior so you don’t have to.

Should you free-feed your dog?

There are a lot of benefits in feeding meals at certain times rather than leaving food out all of the time.

• You can monitor intake. If you feed meals, you’ll know the instant Buster goes off his feed – sometimes the first sign that he’s not feeling well.
• You minimize your dog’s opportunities to guard his food.
• You can utilize feeding time as training time.
• Your training sessions are more likely to be successful if you train when Buster’s stomach is empty rather than full.
• You can use his meals as training treats.
• You can control your dog’s weight.
• You may spark his appetite. People with fussy eaters often make the mistake of leaving food out constantly. The dog grazes all day never gets hungry, thus never gets eager for food.

Dior is getting big!

The fun thing about working with puppies is seeing how much they grow between visits. It is such a pleasure to work with Dior and her sister, Coco!

I'm seeing more puppies for training and I'm glad families are being proactive!

Good dogs with challenges.

If you are struggling with your dog, I'd like you to try to reframe it. Why are they acting in a challenging way? Is it something they were bred to do? Are they not getting enough exercise? Are they scared?

Its not personal - they need your support. Make it about them and you'll both be happier.

Benji!

Little dogs need manners too!

We started our day off with Benji, a client's current foster dog, and ended it with Buddy, a german shepherd with aggressive behaviors.

Never a dull moment.

You'll be so much happier when you get some help with your dog. And so will they.

We attended the Dogs with Big Feelings 2.0 conference today.

Many great topics like managing overstimulation, navigating stress and understanding your dog's emotional well-being.

Most dogs that I work with need help with their big feelings!

Does YOUR dog need help with THEIR big feelings?

Piper has come so far! We walked with my dogs today and she was perfect.

Rewind a few months ago and that would not have been possible. I had 90 lbs of barking and lunging.

If you have a reactive dog, you need to be patient and stay the course. And it is not linear but you can get there if you are willing to put in the work. I'm so proud of Piper.

Don't wait - get coaching. You CAN make things better.

So, what can dogs actually eat on Thanksgiving?

There are many Thanksgiving foods dogs can eat. The key is to let them indulge in moderation to avoid pancreatitis, vomiting, and diarrhea.

Naughty or overstimulated? Your dog might not be trying to give you a hard time. They might be having a hard time. Get help from an experience dog trainer and you will both be happier.

Dior and Chanel.

Raising two puppies at the same time is not for the the faint of heart but Dior and Chanel's owners are excelling! I was a bit worried at first but they are doing the work to have happy, well behaved dogs.

You can too with some coaching and dedication.
