📍 The Magic of 'Go to Place' 📍
In this reel, watch how 'go to place' helps my dogs, Summer, Ninni and Blizzard, spend time together peacefully while setting clear boundaries. This simple yet powerful cue is more than a trick – it's a tool for everyday life:
1️⃣ Guest Arrival: Calmly send your dog to their place instead of jumping on visitors.
2️⃣ Multi-Dog Management: Perfect for stationing dogs while working one-on-one.
3️⃣ Safe Haven: Create a retreat for your dog, free from interaction with guests or kids.
Whether you're introducing new pets, hosting visitors or just need some calm in your home, this cue is a game-changer. Ready to teach your pup? Watch the video to see it in action! 🐕

Tricks & Treats Week – Sit Pretty!
Looking for a fun trick that’s both adorable and beneficial for your dog? 🎉 Teaching your pup to *sit pretty* not only impresses your friends, but it also helps strengthen their core muscles and improve balance! 💪
Start with these simple steps:
1. Have your dog sit.
2. Hold a treat above their nose, encouraging them to lift their front paws while keeping their bottom grounded.
3. Start by rewarding when they follow the treat with their nose. Work your way up to your pup lifting up their front paws.
4. Once they are following the food lure, switch to a hand signal.
5. When they are reliably following your hand signal, add the verbal cue “sit pretty"!
Building confidence one step at a time! 💪🐾
Watch as this brave pup tackles new challenges, growing stronger and more self-assured with every exercise.
Consistent training and positive reinforcement can help any dog shine! ✨
🐾 Group classes are essential for a well-rounded dog training experience! 🌟
While 1:1 private training is great for personal attention, group sessions offer socialization opportunities and teach your pup how to focus around distractions—crucial skills for real-world environments.
Let your dog practice manners in a group setting while
learning to stay calm around other pups and people. It's not just training; it's an enriching bonding experience!
