Salty is an energetic Dog. He’s so much fun. His owners signed him up for our E-Collar program so he can enjoy some off leash time with his family!

Last week we were lucky enough to attend an incredible seminar at in Arkansas! Not only was the seminar lead by the fascinating Dr. Stuart Hilliard and our good buddy who was not wrong in imploring us to hear what that man had to say! Not only did these two insightful and inspiring Canine professionals impart a wealth of knowledge upon us. We also got an opportunity to hear about the opinions and experiences of a number of great trainers from around the country! We’re so glad we got an opportunity to meet all of them! No better way to she spend our downtime! Always keep learning!

Pack Walks are back! Saturday, March 30th at 9am! 26th St. On the Boardwalk! Remember to bring waste bags and water or treats if your Dog needs them! It can be a little chilly on the Boardwalk so it’s always wise to bring extra layers for you and your Dog if that will make either of you more comfortable! We’re excited to get back to it!

Why choose our 2 Week, On Leash Stay and Train Program? Before your Dog comes to stay with us to be trained in behavioral obedience. We first schedule 2 Days of Day Training for your Dog to attend. This is LIKE Day Care but the entire day is focused on training and structure. After those 2 Days of Day Training are complete we have you in to attend a private 1 on 1 appointment to catch up on all the material your Dog has learned thus far. It also helps us to prepare you and your Dog for their 2 week stay. Only after we’ve completed this does your Dog come in and stay with us and our trainers for a full 2 weeks to study behavioral obedience and focus on how to be an excellent Dog On Leash in addition to learning other new and useful behaviors! At the end of this 2 week period we have you in again for a 2 - 3 hour private lesson to learn everything you’ll need to know in order to maintain your Dogs new training at home. Then even after we’ve accomplished all of these things together, we schedule you for another appointment a few weeks after your Dog has been home. We do this so we can check in with you about how the training has been going and offer help to clarify or improve anything you may still be having questions about. Spending longer periods of time with our students always makes for an outstanding outcome! Contact us today if you have any questions about this program or any of our other services here at Shore Dogs Training!

Why choose our 4 week Board & Train Program? Sometimes our Dogs develop unhealthy relationships with their home environment. Taking them out of that environment can be vital in restructuring their association with their routine at home. It’s far from a quick fix though. When you sign up for our 4 Week Board and Train program, this includes 3 Days of Day Training as well. We schedule this to come before the Boarding Portion of the training so that your Dog is familiar with us and our environment. We also schedule a One on One appointment that coincides with this cluster of Day Training. This will help to teach you some fundamentals and prepare you for the Board & Train. During their 4 week stay you’ll be joining us here at the 2 week mark for another appointment further expanding on the information you’ll be needing to put this training to use once your Dog comes home. Then at last, at the 4 week mark you’ll be joining us for a 2-3 hour appointment reviewing all of the information regarding your dogs training AND how to use their new e-collar! This is the ONLY program through which we introduce e-collars. The price of the program not only includes the introduction but also the equipment itself. Remember to be weary of anyone who’s willing to attempt to introduce your dog to an e-collar in 2 weeks. This is complex equipment and taking the correct approach ensures that your Dog will have a good relationship with this device! Contact us TODAY if you’re interested in asking us ANY questions about signing your Dog up for a Board and Train program!

NEW PROGRAM ALERT!!! Shore Dogs Training now offers a 2 Week - On Leash - Board and Train Program! Sometimes it can be difficult to fit a training class into your schedule. We wanted to make our Board and Train Program more accessible for people who may not want to commit to a 4 week program. This Training will include 2 Day Training Days to come before the Boarding itself. In this program your Dog will learn Sit / Stay’s, Down / Stay’s, Place, Heel, the introduction to a Recall and more! This program includes a 2 hour conclusion lesson. As well as an additional touch up session to revisit any material you’d like once you’ve had your Dog back home and training with you day to day.

Muzzle Appreciation Post! We just wanted to give a shout out to all the owners out there advocating for their Dogs. The owners that are doing everything they can to give their Dog the best life possible. The Muzzle is not a bad tool. When fitted and worn properly it is a device that makes certain that Dogs and their handlers are being safe and that Dogs aren’t able to commit to anything that could be dangerous for them, their owners, or someone else from their community. Keep up the good work! We see y’all out there!

This special girl is Mercedes. She’s a lovely Dog. She’s been living at the Humane Society in Worcester a county for 2 years. She needs an owner with lots and lots of patience. Most importantly her owner needs to be committed to helping her live her BEST life. This poor Gal was found tied to a tree in conditions that weren’t the best. She was there for a long time. As a result, in the interests of feeling safe she’s developed some poor behaviors. Such as reactivity. She’s a little bit older. She’s been here with us for training everyday the past couple of weeks to be reconditioned in regards to her day to day behaviors and improve upon her interactions with potential handlers. Although she’d likely thrive in a home without children. Here with us we’ve been working to build trust and a sense of security that she hasn’t had before. All she wants is to lounge around and live out the rest of her days relaxing! If you or someone you might know is interested in being a part of Mercedes journey then please reach out to us or to find out more. Please help us to get this wonderful girl into the home she deserves.
