The Pooch Pros

Congratulations to Birdie on her successful training. This 1 1/2 year old lab mix spent a significant portion of her life in an animal shelter until she was adopted by a compassionate family. Due to her sheltered upbringing, Birdie lacked essential life experiences and training. Her family enlisted our services to provide board and train instruction, focusing on addressing her hyperactive behavior. Initially, Birdie struggled with constant motion, poor listening skills, and leash pulling. Through targeted training, we improved her name recognition, recall, basic commands, and leash etiquette. Although Birdie was easily distracted at first, she gradually became more receptive to instruction. After a two-week training period, we returned Birdie to her family, noting significant improvements in her calmness and willingness to listen. She demonstrated the ability to sit still and remain focused, providing a solid foundation for future training.

Mac, the lovable eight-year-old Husky, just graduated from our board and train program! This blue-eyed cutie had some, ahem, 'quirks' - like aggression and not listening. His walks were more like thrill rides, with him pulling his owners along like they were on a sled. But we whipped him into shape, and now he's a model citizen. His owners are all set to keep him on the straight and narrow.

Best wishes to Bear. Our training focused on refining this Black Lab puppy's domestic behavior, listening, and leash manners. Initially, he exhibited intense pulling and constant jumping at home. After a month of board & train, Bear returned home today, displaying improved calmness and responsiveness to his owners' commands.

Kudos to Louie, the spirited Bichon, whose big personality shines bright. As a puppy, his energetic nature presented challenges for his owners, from leash struggles to potty training and listening. After three transformative weeks of board and train with us, Louie returned home a calmer, more attentive companion, now aware that sharing the spotlight is just as wonderful as being the center of attention.

Congratulations to Dayz. This delightful Barbet underwent a comprehensive board and train program with us to tackle crate training, separation anxiety, obedience training, and house manners refinement. Following a three-week residency, we returned Dayz home as a more composed canine, exhibiting marked improvements, including eliminated crate soiling when left alone, mastery of basic commands, and the ability to remain on his dog cot as instructed. We extend our sincerest accolades to Dayz.

Meet Festus, our latest board and train success story! This energetic Toy Australian Shepherd came to us for obedience training and to fine-tune his manners. With patience and persistence, we helped Festus become more calm and focused, able to listen more intently. We also took him on exciting field trips to help him become more comfortable around new people. As a result, Festus can now walk beautifully on a leash and respond to basic commands like sit, wait, and place. Way to go, Festus!

Transforming Tails: Ducky's Journey to Serenity! 🐕💆‍♂️ This delightful 9-month-old Pitbull spent three transformative weeks with us, tackling hyperactivity and impulsiveness. His love for people and dogs led to exuberant leash-pulling, so we showed him the way to calmness and composed walks. He learned basic commands and leash manners, but most importantly, he embraced the art of tranquility. Today, we bid farewell to a much calmer, more obedient Ducky, spreading joy wherever he goes! 🌈🐾

Nova, the Cane Corso with more anxiety than a teenager on prom night. But we didn't let that stop us. We taught her to chill on her dog cot and not be afraid of the big bad world (or men). And guess what? She didn't p*e once during her return home consult! That's like a record or something!

From Anxiety to Joyful Tails: Nani's Transformation. This precious German Shepherd Irish Wolfhound mix came to us for board & train to address her anxiety and aggression issues, hiding her gentle heart. With dedication and care, we helped Nani learn to manage her anxiety and become comfortable in new situations, resulting in a happy, wagging tail and a smile on her face!

Are you ready for a dose of inspiration? Meet Olivander, a graduate of our board and train program who has made remarkable strides! Once unable to sit still, this little pup has learned to be calm, mastered house manners, leash training, commands, potty, and crate training, and is now listening attentively to his owner even when told no. We couldn't be prouder of Olivander's incredible progress and dedication to learning!

Bear , one of our personal dogs, had fun tonight visiting the service men & woman at Goodfellow Airforce base as part of our church outreach. He loves getting pets and it was a blessing to be able to brighten their day with his gentle, furry presence. He had a blast being a part of the team loving on our military community.

We always enjoy visits from our board & train graduates. This sweet boy Bean came to us back in March due to anxiety especially with new men. Happy to report his owner said he’s doing well out in public and at home. His doggy day care has even seen the improvement in his behavior. Happy he could spend the weekend with us!

Saying goodbye to this adorable face is bittersweet! 🐶 Gus, our young Boxer friend, learned so much during his time with us. From basic commands to being calm in his crate, he flourished under our care. We're confident his mom will enjoy a peaceful work-from-home environment, thanks to our training. Gus's accomplishments warm our hearts!
