Biscuit reunited with his owners last week!

Biscuit left the same but different. Training doesn’t take away from your dog it only adds to them.

He came in for reactivity issues, walking better on the leash, and overall better listening skills. He joined up for our 6 week off leash board and train and left a new dog! 👏👏

We are thrilled to have been part of their journey and we look forward to seeing them again for their follow up!

Calvin graduated today!

Calvin warmed up quickly here and we got to enjoy all the amazing qualities of that sweet boy!

He learned a nice new set of manners in his 4 week foundations program and made us proud when working with mom and bother!

He is the “same but different” and we couldn’t be happier for their future together!

We’ll be looking to seeing them for their follow up in a few weeks and seeing them in group class!

Had a great class today with a great group of dogs and their owners.
Today’s class was a fun one with everyone working on a relay style course. Of course we are always working on their overall skills too.
The purpose was to work on their issues without directly working on their issues. A wax on wax off type of approach if you will.
Everyone did so good and the dogs were dusted afterwards!
FYI all our programs come with access to group class. It’s the bread and butter of our training programs because this is where you will build your skills with your dog in a real world situation around other dogs and people.

Consistency among the people around your dog may be one of the hardest aspects of trying to raise a dog but is one of the most crucial parts.
We have clients that have different handlers for their dogs. Multiple people in the home, dog walkers, and day care providers. Not to mention all the people passing through like relatives and friends.
All these people helping is great but it also creates a lot of variables. A lot of potential for people to do things differently than what you want and to potentially reinforce things you don’t want.
It’s important to be clear in your rules and if needed put up boundaries around how people interact with your dog. After all, you are the one who is living with the dog long term.
Have you had to put up boundaries with people around your dogs?

Had a great group class yesterday with these two.
It was a small class but a perfect one for George’s (dog in back) first time in class. He can get reactive so having just one dog in here made it really easy for him and his owner to focus.
Special thanks to Roo and her owner for being such a great training partner. Roo has come a long way in her training since her board and train a few months ago. They both continue to do really great!

Calm is good!
Most of them time we aren’t used to seeing dogs actually because my calm. They are almost always up and moving around. We have come to think this is normal behavior.
Some people will a calm dog and assume they are “sad” or “depressed” when in fact they are just calm. Teaching them how to be calm is different than when they are just tired after a hard play session or a walk.
Calm in command is what we call it. It is the act of having your dog relaxed when you need them to. This could be when guests come over, taking them to a cafe, taking them to your grandparents house. They need to have the skill of relaxing.
It’s not hard to teach but it does need to be taught. Being excited comes natural. Calmness does not.
Place command is a great starting point for teaching your dog how to relax. It’s sets the tone for a down at the cafe. As we always say, “you need to paint the picture for your dog” this way they have a better understanding idea of what the expectation is.
Do you need help teaching your dog how to relax? Comment “calm” and I can send a link to our free place training video.

Training takes time.
When you endeavor on the path to a better behaved dog it’s not going to happen after a couple training sessions or an extended board and train.
Building new habits, creating new associations takes a lot of time and effort. Our dogs are not robots.
Understand that you are on a journey. A journey that isn’t linear and will have ups and downs.
Give yourself and your dog grace as you navigate this new way of being and enjoy the process that you are now doing.

Dogs and babies.
This is a little fresh for us since my brother and his Partner had their baby.
A common mistake is allowing too much access too soon when the baby arrives. Folks try and force the relationship between the dog and the baby.
The best way to nurture their relationship is to let it happen organically. You have nothing but time. Your dog doesn’t need to be right next to the baby to smell them or get to know them. We all know dogs have very powerful noses.

It is very common that people contact us to fix the aggression.
Unfortunately it’s not as easy as just fixing the aggression. This behavior isn’t a solo issue. It is a result of a lot of factors in the dogs life.
How are they in the house, do they listen (not just when they want), do you need treats in order to get compliance, do they go in a crate, are they pushy, do they practice unwanted behavior daily, can they relax, are they impulsive, how do they walk.
As an owner of a once aggressive and reactive dog I can tell you first hand my dog did all the above and I tried to just work on the aggressive behavior. We got nowhere.
It wasn’t until I started looking at the smaller everyday interactions. Those happen more through the day than the aggressive behavior did. That is why it was important to focus on those first.
If you want any success at that behavior, you NEED to get your dog into a better headspace in the everyday moments.

It’s a fact that if we want to have better behavior from our dogs then WE (the human) need to put the effort in.
Our dogs are really good at being dogs. Their undesirable behaviors aren’t bad for them, they don’t work for us. This things we don’t like don’t fit into our idea of what we want our dog to do be doing.
Our dogs are a product of their environment. What they are allowed to do is what will continue.
So, if we want to FIX our dogs’ undesirable behavior then it’s time we own it and step up to showing them what we want them to do. EVERYDAY
We can offer you guidance on how to do this in a way that doesn’t feel overwhelming. Comment “change” and I will send you a link to schedule a call so we can chat about your dog.

Working with George and Milo together.
George is a reactive dog now in recovery. When he see’s dogs outside he focuses very intently. This is what leads to an outburst. Milo is providing a great distraction for him as he learns how to be around other dogs.
Milo gets easily distracted so the added distraction of George is great practice for when he goes home and is around the other dogs in the house. It’s painting a nice picture for him on how to exist around other dogs.
Both of these dogs are here for our Board and Train program learning how to take direction in the moments when we need it most.
If you need help with your dog comment “help” and I’ll send you a message with a link to our contact form!

Board and Trains can be a great start to your training journey.
Often times you might find yourself on a waitlist or perhaps you’re not able to start right away.

Dogs almost always need some time to acclimate to the new environment and these tips will also help with that adjustment period. This can really help so your trainer has all the time possible with your dog.

Our dogs want to chase, catch, and kill. They are dogs who are predators.
Playing wiith your dog satisfies their innate instincts as a dog. Its provides a structured outlet thst may be doing inother areas.
Does your dog seem hyper focused on small animals ourtside? Are they chasing the kids? These could be singd your dog is lacking proper fulfillment.
If your fetch game does not seem to quell that give this a try for a few weeks.

Why do we do 4 and 6 week programs

10/02/2024

Sometimes I think we can see things online and force our dogs to do the same thing.
The problem with this is that every dog and owner situation is different. Each dog is different. Because we need to honor the dogs we have.
What works for one may not work for another. I think it’s important we recognize that and do what is best for our dogs to live peacefully. Whether that’s with or without other dogs in the home.
It’s ok for our dogs to have limitations. It’s not a sign that you are a bad dog owner of they are bad dogs.

Dog training with Duke

Repetition is what will build the skill...Duke is with us for a couple more weeks so we are working on hard getting in those reps. The more he practices the better he will understand what we are asking...I’m also using him as a good distraction for the other to practice their PLACE command. It’s good for them to continue learning how to observe when something is going on. A lot of owners generally want a spot for their dog to go to and chill. This how that is done....If you’re experiencing dog troubles, such as puppy issues, on and off leash obedience and manners, or more serious behavior issues, our approach to dog training has been giving owners the help they need for over 10 years......#dog #doggy #pdx #portland #portlanddogtrainer #pdxdogtrainer #dogtraining #pitbull #frenchbulldog #dogsofinstagram #dogs #dogs_of_instagram #portlandoregon #pnw #pnwdogs #dogowner #frenchiesofinstagram #remotecollar #ecollar #portlandordogs #dogsofportland #oregon #dogtrainingadvice #dogtrainingtips #advice #tips #thanksgiving #november
