Been loving working on coming when called with Alfie with his owners these last couple weeks! Slow but steady wins the race with a Great Pyrenees dog!
Miss Shelby made leaps and bounds in her training this past week! Shelby and her owners came to us needing some help helping Shelby through some fearful behaviors and building confidence in Shelby that everything will be ok with all the crazy things that the human world throws at dogs!
We saw it click this past week and I can’t wait to see how she continues to improve ❤️☺️

So proud of these two! We evaluated their CGC and helped with a little extra training! They are going to be a wonderful therapy dog team ❤️
Welcome to Braxton Hill and his canine partner Ace as Pets for Life’s new volunteer team. We are sooo glad to have you join our mission of “pets helping people.”🐾🐾
THIS 👇🏼
We’ve all heard the saying, “Practice makes perfect,” right?
•
It does. The more we do something, the better we become at that something even if that something is undesirable.
•
Our dogs are the same way. If we want to create desirable behaviors, we have to reinforce them when they happen. (Tip: have treat bowls/pouches conveniently placed for easy reinforcement).
•
We also need to prevent undesirable behaviors from taking place, and if that’s not possible, we can substitute or redirect with a more desirable behavior.
•
I was reminded of this this morning. While I was showering, I heard Brigid barking incessantly and knew immediately that she was at the front window and triggered by something. I do not want Brigid to practice this behavior, so I yelled for my husband. Not to call him out, but he was in charge of dogs at this time. He happened to be helping our son get ready for school. Life happens and it’s not always convenient, amiright?!
•
Thankfully, Brigid’s recall is solid inside and she’s easily redirected, so it took just a few seconds for my husband to excite her with a toy and redirect enough to close the shade, which prevented the behavior.
Had a great lesson with Cassie today!! Such a smart girl!
I am out of office getting pulled around by Dubai on trails at a SAR seminar until this Friday so if my responses are delayed to you on text and emails I will answer them when I have time or on this Saturday. Thanks for understanding!

Bela did great on her Kong searches at her lesson yesterday followed by some CGC
(canine good citizen)prep! Bela and her owner are well on their way to being ready to take the test in a few weeks.
Please help us welcome Buffy! Buffy and her owners are doing private lessons with us over the next few weeks. She’s a quick learner with a wiggle butt!
Mr. Maverick has been doing great with his first few lessons!
Welcome miss Bela!! We are so happy to have you and your owner for the next few weeks in our private lessons program to brush up on some skills to take the CGC and also figure out ways to help with that German shepherd energy and smarts!
Ivy and Chico are doing so well with thier lessons!
Chico is working on some reactivity when seeing other dogs and has improved so much.Look at that focus on his owner while there was another dog walking around the park!
Miss Ivy is working on some confidence building! She was so brave going thru the wood tunnel, up the stairs on the slide and getting rewarded for when she would see people but didn’t bark.
Interested in private lessons? We come to you!

I think our past client Crosby is showing how we are all feeling about these cold temperatures for the next week 😂
While we are good at dog training we leave the grooming and pet washing to our friends over at U-Wash Puppy !! Dubai goes there on a normal basis for his grooming.
They have grooming services/appointments for dogs AND cats! You do need to call to schedule.
They also have doggie accessories such as bandanas, bows, and collars in store as well.
We also use their Self-wash services and nail trims with Fowler and Berlin often. They are available as first come first serve, open all weekends and most weekdays, only closed Tuesdays and Wednesdays. No appts needed!
Check them out!

Luna and her owner have been rocking it these past few weeks! We were working on loose leash walking but they have both picked up the heel/let’s go behavior quick as well.
Heel/let’s go is a great command to have when passing by distractions or crowded places when it is safer to have your dog right next to you for short periods of time.
Please help me welcome Levi!! Levi and his owner are working on improving recall, off leash reliability and some confidence building! Very smart and handsome boy ☺️
Help find Apollo from Rescue K-911 a home for the holidays!
We can help you lay a good foundation with your puppy or dog but you have to put the work in to have your relationship with them flourish! Even just 5 minutes a day is better than you if you did nothing at all.

#ad We are always looking for new enrichment items to try so we can recommend them to our dog training clients. Our newest find is this Snake treat dispenser toy by Busy Doggy! They sent us one to try out! Compared to other enrichment toys we have it is quite a soft rubber. it definitely is a good one for dogs that might get frustrated with harder/tougher enrichment toys. It’s been a great one for Fowler since he’s not hard on his toys. Berlin and Dubai have both enjoyed it as well. It just doesn’t last very long with them since they deeply enjoy solving puzzles and can figure it out pretty quick. But it’s definitely good for quick times when we just need a distraction like maybe when visiting the vet or when we are at a dog friendly patio. It can hold anything like kibble, treats, peanut butter, and basically any food that is dog safe. You do want to keep an eye on your dog while they are enjoying this toy since it is made out of a softer material so then that way your dog does not chew it up.And just like any other enrichment toy, make sure to clean it with soap and warm water! Here is a Amazon 10% off coupon code for the toy: 10HAPPYDOGGY . It is 20% off on Amazon though the rest of the year, and this takes another 10% off!
